This was our first road trip with our dog (3 year old Frenchie). He was pretty anxious the first few days and didn't want to leave our sides. He finally got comfy by the end. The house was nice and for the most part accurate online as to the stay. It is unfortunate that the house is walkable to a non-dog friendly beach which made us have to get in the car a lot and leave to find something to do which is not what we wanted to do. Also, waking up to the power company at 8am on our second day to discover they were replacing the power pole in the yard for the entire day and not having power to cook, shower with hot water, or wifi to even contact the rental agency or do much again forced us to leave the house dirty and hungry. I highly recommend curtains in the living area and bedrooms on all windows is critical. We felt very exposed to the public at night or when people would walk or drive by. If renting this property, I highly recommend you read all of the details on what each room and bathroom offers and locations in the house or studio space, and the proximity to amenities that are offered in the area. It was nice to have the fenced areas for the dog to hang out with us on the balcony, spa area, and near the grill. Overall, good first doggie trip and nice area, but would not take teens again for a full week.
