This rental worked out great for what we needed. We rented SxS for trail riding and there was room for a truck and trailer to park. The beach was nice and close. The house was nice with a fun cabin feel. The owner was nice and delivered TV remote batteries at 10pm at night when I asked if there were any in the house. The only negative was that the dogs were not allowed in the main part of the house. There is an attached garage that stayed cool enough for the dogs. We didn't see that in the description before finalizing the rental, but they said they would fix that. It wasn't too bad with the dogs separated.

About the host

Hosted by Chris Larmore

Host profile image
I love the St Helen area and own three rentals in Artesia Beach. One off the lake and two neighboring properties on the lake. If you book all three you could host up to 16 people.

Why they chose this property

My family has been hanging out in Artesia Beach since 1925! It is an awesome and welcoming community with a lot of fun outdoor activities.

What makes this property unique

Spacious. Newly remodeled. Well furnished. Fully functional kitchen. Comfortable and cozy. Tons of parking for your toys. Huge fire pit.
