2/10 Horrible

PLEASE GOOGLE "Smell in Mill Bay" before you consider this house.The inside of this house is as promised. Comfortable beds, great cooking kitchen, downstairs space is fun for playing. However: Mill Bay, and in particular, this stretch of beach (Cherry Point) is well-known for a God awful smell so strong that it makes all of the outside space of the home unusable. It permeates even the inside of the home. There is only one mini-split AC in the great room. This does not air condition the bedrooms which get stuffy. You can only sleep with the windows open IF you want to be awakened by the smell at 6 am. The great long table on the side patio? We couldn't eat there because of the smell. The fire pit with the Adirondack chairs? We couldn't sit there because of the smell. We left the home every day for hours to escape it. The beach is a mess of dead sand dollars and rotting sea grass (see pics). The bay water is not always clean either. You have to check daily for a water report on whether Cherry Point Beach is safe. This listing shows shoreline and beautiful views from well planned outside spaces and none of those met the promised. When we approached the owners for a partial refund due to loss of use, see their reply in pics below. They know about the smell and the dirty water, but charge premium high season prices without disclosure of this well known and documented issue.
