Charming waterfront stay! The home was adorable and clean with large windows in the living and master bedrooms. Tons of beautiful homes and nature to see on the neighborhood walks. And some of the best bagels ever at Scratch just around the corner! John was a wonderful host - extremely friendly and a great communicator. Can’t wait to visit again! Would 100/100 book with John on our next trip.

Great location, old building but excellent location. Great view of the water and beach. Everything we needed was in the kitchen. Lots of towels but they were older. Bedroom floors could use a good vacuum. Host was friendly and accommodating, easy to work with, good communication throughout the rental process.

First, the location....right on Willard Beach. Can't beat that. This house was adorable, spotless and had everything we needed. John was the perfect host and a helluva nice guy, too. As we were checking out, I found out he's a car guy, as well, so we spent another 20 minutes talking and promised we'd resume our conversation during a later stay with him. Highly recommend.
