Our host Jennifer was great; answered any questions we had very promptly. The location is great, as we expected, a short 5 min walk to the main street. The home was exactly as advertised, excellent condition and very clean and tidy. We loved our 2 night stay and would definitely stay there again. The only negative (small) is if you are serving meals to more than 2-3 people the high top table can be somewhat limited. It was fine for our dinner for two. Thanks for a great experience.

The place was in a great location, easily walkable the Main Street, near many restaurants and shops (all within a 5-8 min walk).The home was decorated nicely and overall clean. Communication with host was easy. The only issue we had was there were no kitchen towels or sponges etc to clean/dry the dishes. Without a dishwasher and only paper towels we had to purchase something ourselves.

PERFECT for us
Just my husband and I stayed for 4 days and this was perfect. Walking distance to shops/food and scenic parks. Perfect for eclipse viewing and not overcrowded (although it is the "off-season" for tourists, so some places were still closed), but we expected that given the time of year.
We had everything we needed for our stay and it was very clean and comfortable. Additionally, we very much enjoyed the locals we met who were very friendly and helpful. Very nice accommodations and Host Jennifer was very helpful with information and prompt with her responses. Would definitely stay here again.

Great time
Perfect little house. Got a chance to meet the owner. Absolutely lovely woman made us feel at home. Perfect location as I was up there for a little weekend fishing trip. Nice easy access to a few different launches. Couldn't be more pleased
