Disliked: Cleanliness

Interior unfinished

Bedroom was actually the mechanical room with dresser and the bed was jammed in a corner! Only 1 outside garbage can that was completely full when we arrived and still full 4 days later. Had to pile ours on top. I asked how many steps down to dock, 'No steps, just a path to the dock' was the response. Turned out to be quite steep - my spouse unable to get to the dock. The dock was little more than a few floating pallets. After towing our boat 180 miles we had no place to tie-up! Very sad. Have pictures.
