Quick weekend away

A group of us went away for a weekend. The house was perfect for a bunch of adults. There was enough privacy with three floors and three bathrooms but it was easy to hang out together too. We have three young kids with us and it was perfect for them as well. The access to the beach was a few minute walk from the house but for the price it was worth it. If we're every back in the area we would stay here again in a heartbeat.

The beach was quiet and beautiful and the neighborhood was nice. The house was comfortable except for smell of the rooms in the basement, no screens or curtains on sliders , making it difficult to regulate the temperature of the house and no working dishwasher. The biggest disappointment was there was not an access to the beach across the street as the listing claims.

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Huge disappointment that the listing claims there is a “shared beach access across the street” but there is not. The listing includes photos but they are not accurate. We needed to use the public access farther away and much less convenient especially with children and older adults. The neighborhood was nice and the beach was beautiful. The house was mostly comfortable except it got very hot and there are no screens on the sliding doors or shades to block the sun. The rooms in the basement smell very musty, so were not usable. The dishwasher was not working for our entire stay, despite that we reported the issue on the first day.
Path to shared beach access very overgrown
Steep rocks, where the stairs should be to access the beach.
Steep rocks, where the stairs should be to access the beach
The stairs for, we assume, the beach access on the front lawn of the house.
