The house was wonderful with a beautiful view of the harbor. Marta was great. She is easy to work with and responds very quickly to any communication. We will be back.
Fell in love with the Bayfront the minute we walked in. Pristine and comfy. Well appointed. Perfectly situated. We can’t say enough good about it! Only one fly in the ointment was the very loud karaoke at the bar on Butler that started at midnight Saturday and went til 130-2 am. No one could sleep through it. But that was it. We’ll be back!!
The house is beautiful! Marta has put only the best into it. The furniture, appliances and linens are first quality. She has toiletries and paper products that are the top brands. There was a special basket of snacks, wine, cheese and dip. She has information about what is in the town. I enjoyed reading about her and the house.
