What you see if what you get--a lovely cottage retreat just a few blocks from the beach. Linda provides all you need and then some. She answered all our questions promptly, checked in with us during our stay, and had amazing support staff available to help out with anything we needed. The air conditioning and fans kept the house a very comfortable temperature. The water pressure was good and all the appliances were in good working order. The cost was higher than we are accustomed to, but certainly in keeping with the other rental properties in that area for that time of the year. My husband and I and our two girls loved our stay at this clean, beautifully furnished home. Families with very active kids may want to know that there is a gorgeous glass curio cabinet in the living room. We had bought the extra insurance offered through Home Away from Home and thankfully didn't need it, but we definitely kept a careful eye on our busy 7-year old while she was in the house. We were a little stressed out on the few stormy days making sure the kids wouldn't knock over anything precious, and we stayed outside most of the time. If you are a garden enthusiast, you'll love what she has planted. We even saw swallow-tail caterpillars on the fennel plants! If you are a garden appreciator, you'll love being on the hammock or in the screened porch, watching the osprey nests across the street. We picked up groceries at a local supermarket for picnics, breakfasts, and dinners. There are two restaurants within walking distance and plenty that deliver if you don't want to cook. There is also a pellet stove for chillier evenings as the months progress.
