Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m so glad to hear you had everything you needed and that your pup enjoyed the stay too. It’s great that you were able to explore the area and connect with the community. We’d love to welcome you back anytime! 🌟
This property is great to be close to everything but not feel pressure of doing anything. The house is stocked wonderfully with new appliances, pots and pans and supplies. The spa was clean. Beds were comfortable. It was a quick walk to the store, great restaurants and a quick drive to the beach.

Thank you so much for your kind words!
I'm so glad to hear you and your family loved the home and found it comfortable and well-equipped. It’s wonderful to know the little touches, from the dog blankets to the games and hot tub, helped make your stay enjoyable. We’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime to enjoy the home and the community again.
Everything was great. But it would be a lot safer if you fixed a safer way to get in the hot tub. Otherwise it was great.

The house is great, extremely well appointed, especially the kitchen. The only drawback is the absence of electronics. We did not realize the house does not have any electronics. The lack of TV was a minor problem, since it doesn’t even have basic cable to watch the news. Since we don’t stream anything it was an adjustment.
