Check in was easy, host was prompt in welcoming us and in answering questions.The yard around the outside was weedy and full of sandburrs. The beach chairs were heavy and not practical to take to the beach as was suggested.The screened in porch was grimy, mildewy and unswept. ![back yard, additional patio in foreground.3 beach chairs were like the one shown ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/80b5f4b1-c5bd-4f4e-9bd8-7afa95343ef2-1754458019042.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Carol J.
