Mgr was except. Property was poor condition with dirty rugs falling apart, unusable pots and pans, all dishes and tableware required cleaning, holes in screens, stove required complete top disassembling and cleaning. Toilet wouldn't flush without plunging each use. Mgr provided replacement pots and pans and replaced Toilet. We were offered refund for unused days but without alternate accommodation available we were stuck.

Thank you for your feedback. We always strive to provide a great stay for our guests. Unfortunately, this guest was extremely difficult to satisfy despite our immediate efforts to address their concerns.
To clarify, the rugs were clean but slightly worn on the non-slip backing due to frequent washing. The pots and pans were in usable condition, but we replaced them with a brand-new set right away. We also promptly replaced the toilet and offered a refund for the unused nights, though the guest chose to remain.
Everything mentioned has since been fully taken care of, and the property is in excellent condition. We’ve hosted many happy guests before and since this stay, and we’ll continue providing the clean, comfortable experience we’re known for.

About the host
Hosted by Mike Baxter
Fun loving father of a blended family. 1 biological child, 2 stepchildren, 2 Adopted children, 3 wonderful nieces (that reside with us) and 1 AMAZING companion. We’re going on our 8th year as hosts and have met some amazing people from all walks of life! I look forward to meeting you and yours....
Why they chose this property
I like the small town feel rather than a big city. There is virtually no crime in Crescent City. Please realize these homes were built nearly 100 years ago and they all don't look as pretty as mine. The neighbors are great and very respectful of my VACATION HOME.
What makes this property unique
The ocean is about 1 mile down the road. A short stroll at dusk will have your jaw dropping to the ground with our beautiful SUNSETS on Pebble Beach. Very close to the Redwood National Parks.
