We had a really nice time here for a weekend in August. The 3 teenager used the 3 pull out beds in the living room and 2 couples used the 2 bedrooms. It was very clean and everything was organized well. The deck was especially nice for dinner time. We loved the cute kitchen and enjoyed using the Keurig coffee maker and sitting at the kitchen bar facing the water. The host was very attentive and responsive to any questions we had. Nice little touches throughout to make the stay welcoming. Would stay here again!

This was very family friendly, the children had a great time. The only suggestion I would offer is to maybe update the mattresses for the pull out couches. But the games were fun, loved the fire pit and the kayaks.

The house is updated and the beds are really comfortable. We enjoyed our time here overall. We especially loved having the kayaks available any time we wanted to use them. The only issue we had is with communication being more consistent. I'm not sure if this is the property owner or a VRBO issue. Most of the communication was via text. Then when we were waiting on an urgent reply we thought we were ghosted but the reply was on the VRBO app. We missed it as we were expecting a text reply as that is how the conversation started.
