Charming Home, Quiet Dead End Street, 2/10 mi to the Beach
S.Yarmouth Vacation Rental - ID 14161

After driving 6 hours to get to Cape Cod I had to clean the house before we could even move our stuff in! The bathroom shower had hair in the drain, and lots of soap scum on the floor, and a moldy looking shower curtain. The toilet looked like it hadn't been cleaned in weeks! There was a used bath towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door. The kitchen counters had crumbs all over and even spilled oil and Parmesan cheese on the cutting board. The stove burners were filled with burned crumbs! The fridge was filled with several opened condiment containers, and used butter on a butter dish and the shelves had crumbs all over. The freezer had ice cream boxes left in there. The contract stated to bring your own towels and linens which we did. Upon making the bed there were soiled sheets left on the bed. Lots of bugs and cob webs throughout. The outdoor shower, which was something we want in a rental, was spacious but again several bottles of used shampoo and conditioner left behind. I would say this is more of a camp than a house! When advising the owner upon checking out of the condition of the house and lack of cleaning, he did not seem concerned. In fact he stated there has never been a problem with the cleaning staff and people are just trying to be nice by leaving their left over items behind!! show more show less

Short walk to beach (~7 minutes), clean, nicely decorated, cozy place with decent sized kitchen and great deck for grilling or relaxing. Front porch nice for morning coffee. 'Outdoor shower' was not functional due to pipes broken probably from freezing in winter but not a big deal as we wouldn't have used it anyway, but just FYI.

Great overall value.
