Pet-Friendly Washington Retreat w/ Hot Tub & Deck!

Reviews

• 3/5

  House is very worn and smelled strongly of must. The beds in the room with the bunks had sand in the sheets (as if they weren't washed). The king beds were okay, but the room off the kitchen is visibly sloped (and you can feel it when you walk across the room), so we rolled a bit in the bed. There were numerous spiders inside the house, some of which were very large. There was quite a large bee presence as well (outside the house). The hot tub was pretty questionable--enough so that we didn't use it. There was visible mold in both showers. We attempted to contact the host company due to there being no propane for the BBQ, but never heard back. There was little dish soap and we ran out cleaning dishes. Couches were comfy and seemed clean enough, floors seemed clean. Electrical matches age of house and appears to have had some questionable DIY work (and several outlets didn't work). Decor is charming rustic. Lots of windows opened allowing a nice breeze.

• Great location, quaint home

  4/5

  Close to the beach and great size for our family, we were pleasantly surprised with how nice the place was after reading some of the former reviews. The home was decently clean but I noticed dust mites under the beds, which may have contributed to some allergies a couple of us were having, as well as dog hair on the carpet. Overall the place was good and we all agreed we definitely be back again!

• I knew this was an older house

  3/5

  The second night the cleaning products wore off and the NE bedroom clearly smell like urine. We will not come back.

• Nice location

  4/5

  The house smelled strong of disinfectant as it aired out it had a musky smell. We knew it was an older house and kept windows open. However the NE bedroom developed a strong urine smell and was not useable the last night. My family had to sleep in a van and we closed the door to that room. It needs more than disinfectant in that room. Except for that the smell in the bedroom the house was acceptable.

  The only issue was the pet hair and lack of kitchen equipment.
