On paper and in pictures this home looks amazing, don’t be fooled. Tired, run-down, dirty, and ignored are just a few of the words I would use to describe it.
When we entered the home it stunk and there were both house and fruit flies everywhere. The floors were dirty, the hood vent covered in grease, the dishes unwashed, the refrigerator filthy and the one working oven covered in dirt and burnt food. The counters and stove top were greasy. The kitchen and dining room floors were sticky, as were the stairs and handrails.
The bathrooms were disgusting. Both showers had liners covered in black mildew and/or mold. The toilets and tubs were ringed with stains. None of the bathroom floors were cleaned, we found dust and hair all over the floors. There is definitely a mold issue behind the toilet in the downstairs common bathroom. The ceiling fan was crusted in a thick caking of dust. We found dust bunnies and garbage under all but one bed. The master bedroom carpet was stained and there was the odor of pet urine. The master bed itself was broken near the headboard and propped up by a rock.
There was no propane for the tiny gas grill, which was also unusable. As suspected, the hot tub was not working. The yard was littered with dog poop.
The boathouse was no better.
Oddly, there were brand new sheets on all the beds - they still had their creases. That means someone was there, changed the sheets and did nothing more.
The owner sent his sister to clean and she brought a new grill. He offered to send over lobsters (see other reviews, this he has done before). Given that we paid top dollar I informed him that we would take the lobsters but that he owed us at least one night’s refund, he refused the refund. He even screwed the lobsters up by not delivering them the night he claimed he would. At least we suspected as much and purchased other food for dinner. When they were delivered I had to track him down to find out where they were. His sister called the house and told me they were at the dock. She also told me her husband was a lobsterman so the lobsters (as suspected) came either free or at cost. I mentioned to her about the hot tub and she replied they were waiting on a part, which never came.
I could go on, but its not worth it.
