Funky place that appears to be in process of renovation.
Our family of five came to explore beaches and visit family nearby.
The cabin states is sleeps 5. The fifth person gets the couch. My rockstar husband (after driving from NJ in heavy traffic for 7 hours) volunteered to take the first night on the couch. Well, between the resulting purchase of an air mattress and visit to a local chiropractor who was willing to see a sad and hurting vacationer, that couch cost us over $200!
I implore the host to downgrade the listing to four people or spring for a new sleeper couch.
The existing couch is longer than a love seat but shorter than a standard length couch. The support is shot, the cushions are lumpy, along with being stained with holes.
The other living room furniture looks like a dorm room-style collection of curb-side finds.
As a few others said, the beds were not particularly comfortable, but FAR superior to that couch.
The cleanliness was questionable and the extra sheets we found in a drawer didnât smell like they had been laundered.
The water has a distinct sulphur smell when warm (showering) and leaves a âslipperyâ feel. It may be potable, but we opted to grab jugs of water when we returned to town for an air mattress đŹ
We didnât have check in directions. I tried to message once we arrived, but zero cell signal left us hoping the place was just unlocked. It was, but thatâs atypical of any other VRBO. After a long, hard day of driving, knowing the plan to gain access is critical!
This is not the priciest VRBO, but I would expect cleaner and generally nicer if itâs being offered as a place of lodging.
All that aside, you are on a peninsula of land super close to several beaches. The beach pass (despite saying exp 2020) saved us the $15 beach fee at Head Beach!
The table is large and we enjoyed playing games.
No AC, but several fans available.
The vase of fresh daisies on the kitchen island was a nice touch.
The cabin is tucked in the woods. We came in June, so the mosquitoes were thick and swarming. Pretty surroundings, minus the small junk pile behind the house, but the mosquitoes drove us indoors for the entirety of our stay.
Coffee pot provided, but BYO coffee grounds đ
Bottom line: Mike, you are located in the heart of Gorgeous Maine, so tourists are a given. However, if you want repeat customers;
1. Upgrade the furniture
2. Burn the couch
3. Hooks for towels
4. Up the cleaning game a notch or two
