Very comfortable house
We rented the house for 3 days. It is exactly as pictured/described and was very clean and comfortable. The owners were easy to work with and clearly interested in feedback for improvement (we really did not have any, but it was nice that they asked). Probably the best part of the house is that it is right next to the boardwalk along the river - hardly anyone uses the boardwalk, so privacy is not an issue (and the patio/pool area is fenced anyway) and strolling on the path was a highlight of the trip. There are two pieces of information that might be helpful to future renters:
1. There are not a lot of food shops in the immediate area - mostly small mini-markets with very limited choices. If you want a full service grocery store, fresh meat, etc., you will need to drive to the suburbs (but that is only about 8 minutes away).
2. The apartment is not so easy to find...when you map the address with your phone, it is not entirely accurate. The street actually has three tiers, only the first of which is found on google maps or marked with a street sign (this is a very old neighborhood). So, once you find the street, you need to park (parking is not hard to find) and walk down two more streets toward the river to find the house. This is not a long walk at all, but you do need to carry your stuff to the house. Also, there are a lot of abandoned/collapsing properties in the immediate area, but do not be alarmed - the rental itself has been recently remodeled and is in excellent condition.
