FROM OUR GUESTBOOK: Janet and Kevin, what a beautiful state you have. The people, the beaches, the harbor, the coffee shops, the stellar views: My heart is taking it all with me until we return again. You have done a fabulous job with your house. It is so well equipped and thoughtfully prepared. Our teenagers enjoyed the media room and hot tub, oh and the pool table immensely. Thank you for all the suggestions on places to go! We got to most of them. Also got my tiles, but love yours more. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Blessings, Ken, Delores, Zac, Nicholas & Dustin

This is the first house we have stayed at more than one time for our annual family trip to the beach. We hope to return here for years to come, Lord willing. Thank you so much for sharing, Bonnie & John

FROM OUR GUESTBOOK: Dear Janet & Kevin, Thank you for your attention to cleanliness. We have stayed in many VRBO homes, and this was by far the best! Our family had a wonderful, relaxing stay in Newport. Although we have done major remodeling, we have never tackled renovation. Your vision and ideas were amazing! The Cook Family

FROM OUR GUESTBOOK: This has been a family reunion for us. This house has given us a place to be together but also to have comfortable personal space when we want it. We enjoyed the photo album showing the renovation pictures - what a job - and so well done. We enjoyed it all - hot tub, media room, pool table, keyboard, & of course, the location and the view, even the playground. A memorable week-end for all of us. Myrna & Jim

FROM OUR GUESTBOOK: This was a perfect spot - wonderful house ( ! ), beautiful part of the country, esp. for "us" Hoosiers who don't get scenery this spectacular, and the perfect way to be with our son who lives in Oregon to celebrate his 30th. This couldn't have been a better place! It is a very comfortable and welcoming home. We're very glad you share! The Sillimans (IN & OR)
