The house was clean. A lot of room and bright with lots of windows. We did enjoy our visit. Nice and close to walk to pretty much everywhere.

Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a great stay and enjoyed the clean space and convenient location. It was an absolute pleasure hosting you, and you are welcome back anytime!
I can’t say enough great things about this property and its location. Great communication with hosts from day 1. Check in was a breeze, and the house is beautiful. Large and in a great location. All amenities as described. Even a sweet welcome basket. Excellent stay, wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
Great place to stay when you are visiting Westport. Easy to walk anywhere in the village and down to the waterfront. Set back from the street so it is very quiet with lots of greenspace and a large backyard raised deck to enjoy it all. We were 4 women and loved that we could have our own room to sleep in. No BBQ or washing facilities should be noted but that did not matter to us for our visit. Great value for the 's.

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear your family had an enjoyable stay!
Overall was pretty good. Communication with the host was really good. Due to some change of plans, we had to make some changes to the booking and she was very accommodating. Bedrooms were great. Bathtubs and shower could be updated. Security cameras are fine, but kind of annoying having one rotating at the corner of the garage to follow your every move.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the motion sensor camera for the parking lot felt invasive. As it was a newly installed system, we were still learning the best settings for it. After you gave us your feedback, we adjusted the sensitivity level. Please note the camera is MOTION SENSOR activated only, so it only records when there is movement in the parking areas and the first few feet of the walkway, and all recordings automatically delete from the system in 24 hours.
Perfect for groups! There’s a large living room and basement. Ample patio furniture, if you want to be outside. Overall, the place was beautiful with all the amenities. Host even had some snacks for us which was a sweet touch!
We had a great experience at this house. Rebecca was a pleasure to dela with, very communicative and provided great details to make the booking and entry seamless.The house itself was very clean with ample space for oir family of 4 plus Grandma ans Grandpa. Very nice backyards with two decks and great location within waking distance to the town, and short drives to sand lake and spy rock.We would certainly stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a great family home Stay in Westport.
