It was very nice. I would have liked a bar in the shower- that's the only improvement I could see.

Very nice property and well maintained. A nice place for a couple to get away to. The deck is well furnished and very comfortable. Only negative and it’s not a big deal, is the music at the restaurant/bar next door during the afternoon and early evening.

Training for work
Great location and easy to get to all the locations I needed for training. Small town feel and people are very welcoming. Great town to visit and the location of the house is walking distance to local night life (restaurant, food cart and brewery). Plus the morning or night time walks along the bay are awesome. It’s great it’s just across the street so you don’t have to drive there. Dan and Sheri were amazing and helpful with my mistake on booking not enough night. They respond pretty quickly!
