Vacation get-away for my husband and me. . .

The property was even better than I imagined - beautiful views of the water, access to the beach and private. Beautiful home and location. Loved the calmness of being away from "the action". Very clean and well appointed. I look forward to coming back!

Beautifully Peaceful Getaway

The house was extremely clean! Me and my wife are super picky about cleanliness and this house surely met our expectations. We enjoyed the private beach and the natural wildlife on the property, including the fearless deers. We did hear the whales passing by!

Don't believe the description

On first arrival, key code didn't work. Call center struggled for about an hour to finally get us in. After finally getting into property we found out that the main bedroom did not have the advertised 2 King beds, but two full beds. I don't fit in a full bed, so me and my wife had to sleep in separate beds, opposite sides of bedroom. I would have never rented the house knowing this! It also said it had 3 showers, while only having 1 shower, so our 5 person group all had to use the same communal shower. I would have never rented house knowing this! Lastly, it said it had a sauna...it did, but it appeared to have never been used with a plaque saying do not use. Very disappointed, had friends fly from two different states to stay with us. Tried to reach out to Michael the Property Manager, but have been getting the total runaround-stonewall. My suggestion...find a different property...way to expensive for what it offers.
