The place was lovely, very clean and well supplied. Only thing missing were some extra blankets. This time of year gets pretty cold and an extra blanket to sleep with at night would have been most welcome. Also, concise and available instructions to the cooktop would have been helpful as well as use of the various television remotes for those of us who aren't familiar with streaming.

Lovely, well appointed home, Be aware that 4th bedroom, upstairs, may be appropriate for young people/children, but probably not for senior adults, though stairs and upstairs bathroom are great. Our group of 6 retirees enjoyed and appreciated the quality of the house and its furnishings.

Great home in scenic location

The home is beautiful and well maintained. Outside of not catching any fish or crabs (too early in the year) we had a relaxing stay. Barry, the host is extremely responsive. When we found the water feeding the showers and sinks was lukewarm at best, he sent a tech to adjust the hot water heaters and the situation was immediately rectified.

Perfect!

We rented this property to celebrate my birthday and it was the perfect space to relax and rejuvenate! Check-in was a breeze and I was incredibly grateful for the easy communication with the property owner. We had a few minor questions pop up during our stay and he was always very quick to politely respond. The house is meticulously maintained from the gorgeous kitchen, large well-stocked bathrooms, and all the way down to the dock. The layout is also maximized for comfort, and everyone felt like they had their own space which really helped on a day when the weather wasn't so great. I could have stayed at the house for the entire trip, but the proximity to great restaurants and shopping was a huge plus! The Tides Inn, The Local, The Office Bistro, Dredge, etc. were all fun excursions. I really cannot say enough great things about this property and am so excited to return again soon! Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
