Nice property north of TC

Very clean and nicely renovated. Outside could use some TLC, but the inside was gorgeous and very functional. Really nicely done. The kitchen is very big and super accommodating. Fred met us at check in and was very friendly and helpful. The view of the bay across the street is lovely. Lots of traffic on the road, but that's the location.
