Aspectos positivos: Limpieza y llegada
Beautiful area; some issues
First the positives: it’s a beautiful home, great views, excellent location. We enjoyed the use of the house and decks! Close to many enjoyable hikes, and attractions.
Negatives: the grill on the deck did not work! Thank goodness we love cooking inside and the weather was cool enough for us to cook indoors.. A larger family who wanted to save money and grill their food would’ve been Out of luck!
The photos of the property
suggest extensive privacy, however
this house is located in an enclave of homes that have been owned by the same families for generations. While the families are nice, you are definitely the outsider. The homes are pretty close to each other where we were, and there was pretty much constant human traffic in front of the deck. So if you are looking for a little seclusion, this place is not for you during the summer months.
As a “pet friendly” place, We brought our 2 dogs, who are not off leash dogs in an unknown open space. While they are certainly not dangerous dogs, they do not take too kindly to the constant visitation of the unleashed dogs that belonged to the owners of the house below ours, and they were certainly a part of our life whether we wanted them to be or not! They had no problem coming up onto the deck, the back yard, and outside the basement door. Since they’ve probably been at this house before with family, I assume they thought it was ok to roam here. Had I been aware of the unleashed open field policy of the dogs who live there for the summer, I wouldn’t have chosen the property for sure. Or, I would’ve opted to kennel my dogs for our vacation. I felt as if I had to look out and clear the way before I took my dogs for walks, before sitting on the deck, and pretty much any time we were at the house. Very stressful.
Maybe we just rented at a really busy week, I’ll definitely take the responsibility of vacationing on a busy, family filled week, but the unleashed/random visiting dog thing is not ok to me. We definitely saw the dogs urinating and defecating on the lawn which we were responsible for cleaning up. Not cool.
In closing, it’s really a beautiful home. If you plan on coming during a busy summer week, leave the dogs at home if your dogs don’t like random visiting dogs who live in the enclave for the summer or long periods of time. ! I wish we would have known that.
