Stay away from«The Little House,» vacation rental at Plaice Cove in Hampton NH. The view from the deck was magnificent… until the backhoe showed up to fix the neighbor’s sea wall, obstructing the beach, filling the air with noise, ruining the last 4 days of our vacation. Owner was unresponsive for over a week until threatened, and ultimately declined to offer even a modest refund. The Little House is dangerous for kids. Exposed electric wires/outlets/junction boxes, and there are hundreds of nails sticking through the wall(they are holding up the vinyl siding and stick through into the interior by about 1 inch). Thank goodness my 2-year-old did not stumble while close to the wall or it would have meant a trip to the hospital. Are there no building codes in New Hampshire? Also, you must climb over jagged boulders to get from the cottage to the beach because there is no direct path/stairs/walkway. The listing on talks about a «short-stay guest/storage/laundry room» and provides some carefully staged pictures. In case you were wondering, the«short stay» room is actually a garage with a couple of beds set up in there, and there are rusty sharp tools strewn about. My daughter slept there. My aunt who is recovering from cancer slept there, and when I made up her bed a big black bug crawled out of the blanket. I was stressed out the whole vacation. The beach at Plaice Cove is rocky & rough, better buy some aqua socks if you want to swim. Many more details of this disappointing rental: I recommend you look elsewhere for your vacation.
