Everything needed was included…sheets, towels, kitchen appliances and cookware. I did miss not having a dishwasher but they did supply us with dish detergent. The home was very cute and perfect for my family. It could use a little updating but overall, it was great.

While the home is a little dated, it provided everything we needed for a week's vacation. The only complaints I had were pet hair everywhere which Vacasa sent a cleaning crew out the morning after check in as we checked in after hours and the sliding glass door being difficult to lock (we ended up leaving it unlocked more often than not). While I understand its a pet friendly home (and I have pets of my own) cleaning needs to be more thorough as all furniture was covered in pet hair. If pet hair doesnt bother you then its definitely a nice place to stay! ##### Ashley R. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi N. 16 Sept 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great time in avon The property was very clean- it had everythiing that we needed.

A young man (about 19) had been returning... Thanksgiving of 2006 I was working as a NeuroICU nurse. A young man (about 19) had been returning from college and was involved in a crash. He was not expected to survive. His father spent Thanksgiving night reading to him because this was their tradition. When I asked about what he was doing, the father replied “you don’t know how much time you have with loved ones, so always try to make it special.” I rented Luna Tuna for my family as a Christmas gift because of that statement. 12 years later we still remember that family and all of the love and laughs we have had. We are both saddened and inspired by that family and Outer Beaches has been a part of making this legacy happen. This review was submitted while the home was managed by a different property management company. ### 4/10 Poor #### Patricia N. 6 Jun 2023 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Check out instructions The email I received and the placard on site had conflicting information about what to do before leaving house. I am the youngest (68) of my four sisters. We all have back issues, and, on the placard, it stated we need to sweep or vacuum the floor; I called the company and they said that we needed to take care of the floor. None of us even do that at home because of back issues. We had a good stay, until one of my sisters saw the placard. The house does need a deep cleaning, and some overall maintenance. Shades were broken, spider webs, one of the numbers missing on the house address on the outside of the house. Just to name a few things. ##### Patricia N.
