Oh, I would have been devastated about the kitchen too and I ok as long as things CLEAN. I don’t mind if it’s old or outdated. However, what a nice way to wake up the next morning….

@GiuliaDoyle We’ve always been lucky too … I’ve rented countless times! This place has good reviews, so I think that after people have been here, they are completely charmed by the wonderful waterfront location and the friendly people here. Everything felt better in the morning with a clean(ish) kitchen and the fresh ocean air, so we are definitely enjoying our stay. (But I wouldn’t necessarily recommend the place.)

At least you are at the water! Tricky with the rentals. We’ve been really lucky and I only rent places that have reviews. I hope you got it clean enough to enjoy your stay?

@coffeewithjulie I think so, but Max might be too young – it’s a bit of wild ride. I’d call ahead – there’s a handful of different outlets there.

@aph We’re thinking of driving back tomorrow to see the tidal bore after all. Can kids do the rafting?

Too bad you missed the tidal bore! I actually did the rafting in Truro – it was a lot of fun – you ride on the river towards the ocean, and then you ride back on the turbulence caused by the flow changing direction when the tide comes in.
