Our host was wonderful and very accommodating. We happened to stay here during a strong winter storm and were snowed in. Laura worked with us to extend our stay and was incredibly helpful. The house is well-kept and a great place to stay for a family. We'll be back!

The house was super clean, stocked with everything we could have needed and had comfortable bedrooms and living space. Location was perfect in a lovely, quiet neighborhood. Being so close to the trail, the beach and a quick bike ride into town was perfect for us.
