About the host

Hosted by Craig Dye

Host profile image
My name is Craig and I live just a few blocks away. My wife (Char) and I manage the rental of this home for our lifelong friends Ron and Carol who live out of state and use this as a vacation home until they retire. They have furnished the home for themselves so you will not find some of the shortcuts you often find in investment properties. The master bedroom is locked off with the owners personal possessions but the rest of the house is included with your stay. My wife and I have been renting our own home for several years and have learned how to make your experience enjoyable and not corporate. You will access the home electronically so you will never see us unless you request to. Please feel free to contact us with any questions.
