Amazing location, let down on the house quality.
TLDR - House was the perfect size and location for our family of four but fell short on cleanliness and overall maintenance of the home.
We had a larger portion of our family staying in a big house on this street so finding this as an option to be next door was excellent. The size of the home was perfect for my us and our 2 kids and would have comfortably fit 2 families if the kids were okay to share the bunk room. It was easy to get up and over the dune right to the beach and the house was equipped with everything we needed including kitchen items (no spices though) and games.
The house was dirtier than we expected. Any kitchen items that hadn't recently been used needed washed out. The carpets had many stains and we felt a bit uncomfortable walking on them with no shoes. We ended up putting a blanket down to sit with the kids. The shower curtains were moldy. There were many flies and a couple of roaches (the outdoor kind just making their way in).
The windows and doors were all in need of repairs or replacement. Humidity was trapped in the glass. Many didn't close the whole way which was likely the source of the extra bugs. All other appliances and household systems worked well.
We got a good response from Vacasa for a speedy repair to the deck chairs and a sliding door to the deck that wouldn't open or close all the way but they said they would have someone come shampoo the carpet and never followed through on it.
Great location, good space, disappointing house.
