Blueberry Beach Cottage was in a great location for those who want to stay close to downtown H.S. The house was as advertised with 4 rooms (comfy beds) and two bathrooms which was perfect for our group. However, the house is antique and needs many improvements for functionality and comfort. Neither staircase had handrails which was very troubling for our 80 yo parents. (all beds are on upper floor) Due to the age and condition of the floors, doors and windows, every movement of every person in the upper floor can be heard at night. Windows are very old and must be propped open by the spindles laying in the sills. Ceiling fan in bed 2 is broken. Window in bed 1 painted shut. The back door slams and the first floor bathtub has drainage issues. The kitchen was well stocked and appliances were great. We enjoyed the use of the two bikes in the garage. The outdoor space needs some attention. The deck was partially finished which led to some splinters for our kids. Again, no handrail on the deck stairs. Overgrown landscaping helps with privacy but provides a haven for mosquitos.
Overall, we made the most of being together in a great location. I would recommend a more accurate description of the condition & age of the house in the rental listing.
