GREAT location and comfortable home for 7 women celebrating milestone birthdays. Very clean, and lots of spaces for lounging.

We love this little beach town! The bungalow had the best location. We walked to the nearby park for tennis and the playground. All the shops, restaurants and the beach were an easy walk. The kids loved the two ice cream shops so close!

Family/Friend getaway for Wedding

We really enjoyed your stay here. We filled the house with 5 couples, and 3 individual's. All the rooms were great sizes and just like the pictures showed. Being so close to down town we walked all over and did not have to worry about parking. Thank you so much for another great experience. Dave & Wendy Hoag

Location, location, location! You can't get much better then this with downtown proximity. The house fit our needs for our girls weekend in chilly February. We were able to walk downtown for shopping, food and at night were able to safely walk to and from the bars. The house is a little quirky with the kitchen on the 2nd floor and 1 of the bedrooms having to walk through to get to the other parts of the house. Thats all minor when your talking about the location! The house was clean, and well maintained. We didnt need anything during our stay, but there was clear instructions if we needed help quickly that weekend, where to call, ect. Overall perfect place for the best weekend ever!

Hi Bob, thank you for taking the time to write a review. It was nice to meet you and your family! Appreciate you letting us know about the slow leak under the sink. We offered to fix during your stay, but you let us know it would be ok to wait. It's since been repaired. Will make sure to add more Kleenex. Hope to host you again sometime! -Sam and the GLV team

Anniversary Weekend!

This was a great find for us. We celebrated our 50th Anniversary here with our 3 adult children, spouses and 4 grandchildren. We had plenty of room for gathering together and also private space. Beautiful home and we enjoyed trying to guess the history of the home which would have been interesting. It was clean and had great amenities. Surprisingly quiet if some members were early to bed. I would recommend some plastic plates and cups for children to use. Also, some closet space for hanging clothes if possible?

Location, Location!

This home was perfect for my siblings and spouses as we enjoyed a family vacation. With 5 couples, we each had our own room for privacy and the 3 1/2 bathrooms allowed for minimal sharing. The house had plenty of seating areas which would be great if your gathering had teens who wanted their own space. We enjoyed the front porch and the outdoor tables as well. The best part of the house was the location….only 1 block off of Main St. It was so easy to walk to everything in town. The onsite parking accommodated all of our cars. The house was well equipped with towels, soap, kitchen supplies, etc….The host was very responsive to my questions. All 10 of us would like to stay here again!
