What guests say
The property is positioned as a freshly remodeled, cozy waterfront studio with a private deck and full kitchen, but at least one guest raised concerns that the condition did not fully match that description. Reported issues included the need to climb stairs that felt unstable and signs of maintenance problems inside the unit. There was also concern mentioned about apparent structural or foundation-related work near the waterline. Overall, guest feedback highlights a gap between expectations set by the listing and on-site condition for some stays.
