Family Cape House
This little cape house has a lot of potential.
The Good: The location is private with a small backyard, deck and porch which was perfect to lounge outside with our dog (major bonus that they allowed us to bring our family dog). We loved the close proximity to the bike path and local beaches but it felt secluded enough to feel like you “got away”. The closest beaches are bayside which was perfect for us with our one year old. As a ranch style is was perfect for our needs as there were no open stair cases or tripping hazards for the baby. We felt like we had more than enough space and very much enjoyed our proximity to the outdoor activities nearby. The air conditioning, laundry and dishwasher were a major bonus for our family as we have a baby and travelled during the hottest week of the summer. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything to suit our needs. The management company was a pleasure to deal with.
The not so good: While the place had been cleaned prior to our arrival the job was not thorough. Overall the bathrooms, kitchen and floors were clean, however there was a bit of dust and cobwebs noted throughout the house. Bugs seemed to get in easily as well despite closed doors and windows. Furniture could be upgraded with just a small investment by hosts (even target furniture would have been an upgrade for the deck/porch furniture). We were not looking for anything fancy but the beds were uncomfortable. If I was the host this is the first thing I would replace.
Overall, we felt the good outweighed the bad and very much enjoyed our trip but do believe some small updates could be made to make this a much more comfortable stay.
