The host is very good at communicating information like directions, recommendations, and entry information. The cabin is very clean and comfortable. We had a perfect, quiet stay in the renovated Old Montalba Post Office.

Cozy and peaceful

We enjoyed staying at the Old Post Office! Very peaceful surroundings and accommodating host. Make sure to use the address given by the host, not what is listed on the automated email from Vrbo. It is a bit remote, so having wifi would have been nice, but overall it was a great stay.

It was Great!!. The only thing I would change if I could would be putting a blind on the west facing door in the bedroom due to the light and heat. Luckily, I had a thin sleeping bag that we were able to use and block the light. Renovation was done perfectly and I will not hesitate to rent again!! v/RJohel M Ward

Thank you for staying with us! We had another couple suggest it too. I ordered one and it was the inside mount so I’m waiting for the replacement to make it in. 💜
