Easy check-in and a convenient walking path to get to town. The star gazing on the front deck was incredible.

Great location overlooking a park area and mountains and only a 10 minute walk to main street with shops, cafes and restaurants. We went on a whale watching trip and that was a short drive. House clean and spacious, perfect for what we needed.

Only had issues with payment authentication. Email contact seemed to stop and I got a text which I wasn’t sure about. Didn’t seem to be a connection to bookabach.Otherwise we weren’t at the property much but it probably had more than we needed and was very easy to find
