Mini family vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had 2 families stay for a weekend. The house was just as pictures in the photos and it was incredibly clean. There was plenty of space for all of us and the hot tub was a nice feature as well. The location was within a very short drive to downtown. The only concerns we had, were the lack of pillows and towels provided. Luckily we had brought a couple pillows but we were still 1 short and one of our girls had to use a decorative pillow. We also were unable to find a bottom sheet for the pull out couch, but just used the top sheet instead. The very minimal amount of bath towels were provided as well, and with all young girls with long hair, a few extras would have been nice. Our biggest issue was the lack of water pressure in the house. When a couple people are trying to bath at the same time, the upstairs shower has almost zero water coming out at times. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but there were just a couple issues as mentioned.

Weekend Getaway

This was a perfect place for our family getaway. We had six adults and two toddlers. Plenty of room for all of us. Nice private quiet neighborhood. Very close to the beach and downtown restaurants. Beautiful deck for outside dining which we took advantage of with small children.

Great House!

We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home! The house was clean and as described. The bedrooms are away from each other so there’s privacy. 2/3 beds are comfortable. The family room is a great gathering space with lots of movies and a nice tv. Kitchen is well stocked with everything you need! The deck is nice and private. We didn’t use the hot tubs but it’s a very nice option. Definitely would stay here again!

Beautiful home short drive to beach

We had family of 8 stay and were quite comfortable. The master suite accommodated 2 pack n play for little ones to sleep in. The home was updated and very clean. We didn’t have time to use hot tub as beach close by. The beach was awesome and the kids had a blast in the waves and playing in the sand. Would stay here again. It was a quiet area with little traffic.

Awesome house

This house was incredible. Very clean. Had everything we needed. The only problem was the upstairs bedroom was really hot but that could have been us not knowing how to use the AC. The downstairs was very cool. Loved the location too. Great property.

A Fabulous Weekend!

My sisters and I were celebrating two milestone birthdays. When they saw the house in person, that set the tone for the weekend. They kept commenting on how beautiful it is and how meticulous the decor. It was comfortable and we felt right at home, only with the added plus of a hot tub and gorgeous sun deck. It was minutes from all of our planned activities and so easy to navigate the surrounding area. Lovely place to stay!!

Women’s wine weekend 2023

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is perfect! Very clean and comfortable and about a two minute drive from all the action including the restaurants, breweries , and the beach. Our only issue was with the checkout time. For a house that sleeps eight and only has two bathrooms, a 10 AM check out was a little tight when you factor in showering, getting ready, making breakfast, and completing all the items on the checkout checklist. Other than that, we would give it 3 1/2 out of four stars.

Relaxing visit

This home provides a nice, relaxing atmosphere to stay in. We enjoyed the close driving proximity to town. While the description states it’s walking distance (and it is) we never felt comfortable walking as it is a curvy road with no shoulders, and then you would need to cross a four lane highway to get to the closest brewery. But it was just a couple minutes drive to several nice breweries and restaurants. There were also a couple of spas close by which we enjoyed. The house itself had a few small issues but I let management know and they were very prompt in their response. The shower head in the upstairs bedroom didn’t work well, but they were going to fix it as soon as I let them know. The TV in the living room wasn’t a smart TV and only had a few channels but there was DVDs available. As they mention, you will want to bring your own towels and pillows or blankets. They provide some but we needed more. Great visit and the company was great to communicate with.
