Lovely home but AC did not work
Much of this home is lovely, and the location is good. The kitchen is very well-equipped, and the home is well-lit. However, there are some things you should know about based on our stay.
• Under "Amenities," it says it has air conditioning. Technically this is true; however, there are some caveats.
• Only two of the three bedrooms had air conditioning. The third one had a window fan. The other bedroom's AC, on the second floor, would not work due to an underpowered circuit and wiring. It was hot and humid with no wind during our stay, so not having functional AC in all bedrooms was uncomfortable.
After contacting the homeowner, she sent an electrician. He determined the problem was an underpowered circuit (only 15 amps). That 15-amp breaker had recently been replaced, suggesting the problem had been known. Upgrading to more amperage is the only solution. He could not do it during our brief weekend stay.
It is a nice and comfortable home if you do not want or need AC in all three bedrooms.
Even in Maine, it can get hot for a few days. If you advertise the property as air-conditioned, a reasonable renter would expect it to work at least in ALL bedrooms.
The rental was not inexpensive, and adequate AC in all three bedrooms could have made our stay much better. Had the wiring been upgraded to handle all of the demands on the second floor, which the 15 amp circuit served, and there was functioning AC in all bedrooms, I would have given it five stars.
