Lovely, well maintained and stocked home with a great view. For a duplex I was a bit nervous about sounds but it was quiet and I didn't have to worry about my fur babies disturbing the neighbors. They said so... This location is perfect, it is close to everything you need. Had a lovely time.

Getaway

When we booked the pictures showed a covered deck. We were not made aware of changes being made which included removing the covered deck. While the changes are beautiful, we booked it for the covered deck. Very Disappointed we were not informed.

Response from VrboOwner on 21 May 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We are so sorry for the disappointment in the deck not being covered after the remodel. It was slated to be added back but time restraints preventsed that. We apologize that you werent informed of the change and hope we can have you back when the pergola is finished for next season. Truly sorry for the lack of communication and in the future we will take your feedback and improve on it. We hope the rest of your stay was enjoyable.
