The location of this property is awesome. The owner is very responsive with questions before arrival and during the stay which is very helpful. The place could use some TLC, and a good deep clean. There are a few things that could be replaced and/or added to this property, and the floors were very, very dirty upon on our arrival. The table on the back deck had a wood trim piece that is broken and sharp on the end. Unfortunately it won a couple of our shirts. It would be nice to have an umbrella for some shade to enjoy the back deck, but unless youâre willing to wait until the sun goes down or real early morning hours itâs directly in the sun. A lot of Tupperware options for leftover food, but only two smaller ones had matching lids so we had to use aluminum foil, which fortunately we brought. The checkout time was a bit confusing because it states 11 am in some places, and noon in another. The departure states to strip the beds and place the sheets in a pillow case, but once you do this after sleeping on them for three days and see the mattress and pillows, theyâre quite stained and old. One pillow had blood stains all over it. Would be nice to cover with a mattress protector, or invest in new ones at Samâs or Costco. Overall we had a great time and accommodated 5 Moms who were just ready to get away together for a weekend, but we wouldnât stay again.
The house needs some general upkeep. A little bit of investment could go a long way. Trash can lib broken, cabinets broken/missing knobs, towel racks missing/broken, bath towel mismatched and poor quality, shower curtains need to be replaced. Carpet in bedrooms looks like original carpet from 1970s. Tile broken in bathroom, tubs were dirty, garbage disposal doesnât work. We also killed a few cockroaches which wasnât pleasant. Cute home but seems neglected and could be a lot more.
Very clean, wouldnât recommend for 10 adults maybe 6 with children. Had a great time over the Labor Day weekend everything is close by and convenient
We really liked this property and the neighborhood it was in. You can walk to a few restaurants and the ice cream shop. Islantime Up was perfect and roomy for our 10 people.. The owner always answered messages within minutes. The room that has the king bed is perfect if you have a bunch of kids because it has a day bed with trundles. You can put all the kids in that one room and still have a room for two other couples. The only thing I have to say that's not 100% positive is we thought there was a pool, because the listing says communal pool. I thought this meant like a neighborhood pool. And then I got emails telling me about the rules at the pool. Come to find out this was for the owner's other properties and the only pool is the city pool. But other than that, we would definitely stay here again.
Went this weekend to Port A for my bachelor party. Ended up having my family come over to celebrate. Of course we were going to have music and hooping and hollering. That's what normal people do. Just know some neighbors might not take the noise too lightly. There is a constable next door that will have your back if your upfront and honest about what your plans. The owner may be a little uptight about rules but follow them and there won't be an issue. Though if 10 people is the max on the property. No extra friends visiting. No extra family members visiting. The owner should put that on the listing. Overall though it was a good weekend. The owner had a ton of snacks in a bowl on the table thought that was cool.
Great home to rent and was right around the corner from the marina and within walking distance to the restaurants and stores. Thank you for opening up your home to us. We had a great time.
