This was a great house for us to explore the Aquarium, the parks, north shore, and downtown. With little kids we only made the mistake of walking all the way down the hill and back once, but wouldn't have been bad with bigger kids all walking on their own. The owners were great communicators and give us clear instructions to get in and check out. They even were accommodating when we had trouble with the VRBO payment system. The place was clean and comfortable, exactly what we expected. We'd stay here again.
