Decent property

The furniture and everything is pretty dated in this house. Overall cleanliness was fine and the dock on the water was a bonus. It was fine for our fishing trip but I know if the girls would have came with us they probably would have been unhappy with how “antique” everything seemed.

I’ll give 2 stars for the view…

Since Vacasa has taken over the majority of rentals on the island, this home was no exception to the very typical-ness I’ve come to expect from them. This property was very dated, nothing has been updated or refreshed in probably over 20 years. The beds were extremely uncomfortable. Usually I can deal with the retro feel of things, but this house was truly filthy. There was dust everywhere, and I’m not talking a busy summer season’s worth of dust…this is caked on dust that has been there for years. On every surface. Above the cabinets it was an inch thick. On all of the artificial plants…caked on. We found a dead cockroach in one of the twin bedrooms and one on the staircase up to the kitchen. Where the kitchen table has a seam in it, there was food caked in the seam and it was disgusting. Every tabletop/countertop surface was sticky or unclean in some way. I felt gross even setting my belongings down before cleaning them off myself. This property does have 2 sit on top kayaks- FULL DISCLOSURE: you’ll see the red duct tape all over them. Our 4 year old told my husband he HAD to try them (we have kayaks at home), so he did. They are VERY unstable, not sturdy at all. November weather and my husband fell into the water because it wouldn’t stay reliably afloat. The two stars are for the view, and for the added convenience of being able to fish off the deck. Hopefully Vacasa will see they need to make improvements instead of using these houses as cash cows.

Keep Sailing

First off, the house was in a great location off of the sound with incredible views especially from top floor inside and out. The house layout was good too with four bedrooms on second floor. However the place needs some serious TLC. First off, everything above a housekeepers head is filthy. Light fixtures, ceiling fans, bathroom fans, cabinets, refrigerator top, windows, lampshades, and so on have a very thick layer of dust. The return vents were filthy. The HVAC vents were dirty, wasn't sure if it was just dirt or mold. We turned HVAC system off and did not use it or the fans as we did not want that to circulate. Also many walls had dirt, some in strange places. The inside of microwave was dirty and also rusty. Many of kitchen utensils looked dirty, We washed everything prior to use. The cabinets the pots and pans in were nasty in inside. The bottom of stove where roast pans were was caked with grease and dirt. Secondly, there are no comfortable seats in the house. It wasn't until we got in my SUV that we found comfort. The couch and chairs in living room should be trashed or burned. The rest of the chairs are wood. So nothing comfortable to sit in after a long day on fishing. Finally, as some others alluded too, many items on house are outdated. Now I don't mind outdated so much but some things are broke and need to go. Vacasa did reach out about the cleanliness after check-in and we did rate it as a 1 and they responded and said they could send someone to clean. However we did not want to be in a place that filthy while it was being cleaned. Best to leave that amount of dust, dirt, and filth undisturbed while you are there. Also, it is doubtful they would appropriately send the amount of people necessary to clean that house top to bottom. I highly highly recommend that Vacasa or owner clean this top to bottom and replace some furniture. Vacasa, this hurts your brand name. I'm super disappointed and definitely overpaid for what I got. As this will be an annual trip for us, we will be looking for other home and possibly through another organization.

could use a good cleaning

Location is nice. The house needs some work. the carpet needs shampooed, It could use a paint job, some light bulbs, there are water stains on the ceiling in one of the bedrooms. We still had a good time, location is good, the hot tub works.

Great views

The house was in a great location with beautiful views. Some of the furniture could be updated. It would be nice if the kitchen had a few items to help with cooking, salt and pepper, coffee filters, etc. Not sure what the black and yellow box full of towels was for, but it was in the way the entire time and very heavy to move. Overall, nice place to stay.

Sail Inn needs upgrade

We enjoyed this area on soundside, but the home itself needs homeowner to upgrade several things, shower curtain on bdrm floor mildewed terrible. Lots of tiny ants and maintenance came quickly to take care of them in kitchen area. Had only a few later. Kitchen cabinets need handles on doors . You have to use both hands to pl the doors open and drawers out. All rooms have holes in wall from door knobs Bed skirting in twin bed rm ..skirting was torn right much and hole in ceiling with water ring. Overhead vents and wall vents immediately need filters changed. Lighting in fridge barely comes on. Sorry, this home needs upgrading.

Great Avon location

This is a nice property located in Avon on the sound. The house met all of our needs, including a surprise of two kayaks we could use on the sound. The hot tub was awesome and the views were gorgeous. The kitchen is well-stocked with tools. It is located at the end of a cul-de-sac, so it's quiet.

Great spot off the beach

We liked this spot on the sound. Very comfortable and good sunsets from the deck, not to mention kite boarders to watch on most days.

It was a beautiful home right on the sound. The location was excellent for water access and amazing sunsets. The home needs a few fixes but overall it was very comfortable and would rent it again.
