And our host Jeff was very nice and accommodating.

Great place

Adorably and quaintly decorated. Cozy and perfect inside. The outside property is shared with others and could use a little TLC but overall I would highly recommend this rental.

2 beautiful bedrooms in 169-year-old house

I searched VRBO for three bedrooms and was erroneously showed this property. I booked it without carefully reading the description. Fortunately there was a Murphy bed. Despite the mixup, my party of 3 loved staying here for a long weekend.

Better than the pictures

What a great place to stay... Close to beaches, restaurants, sightseeing, parks and the PTJ ferry. Very spacious unit, upstairs is perfect for children. It's an extremely big property with a large yard to walk your fur babies. The host is extremely friendly, laid back and accommodating. We ended up booking an extra week just because we found extra stuff to do, that we didn't plan on. The views from the front porch are fantastic, with an open view of the water. You will

Liked: Communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The walkway to the back of the house had many dog poops aside from being dangerous with tree roots, pavers not installed properly, the back yard was cluttered with yard items spray tank, seed bags, etc..To enter the residence you have to go thru a dirty and cluttered laundry room. Many of the window sills had dead bugs.The bathroom is very small with a jetted tub which does not work. Second floor tenants were noisy and had a dog that would bark constantly. There are light switches on the opposite side of the room. Recycle pails were over filled. etc., etc. In my opinion, this is not a very good place to stay to rest and relax.

Great spacious house/apartment

Well kept and spacious house with a great host. Set in a quiet neighborhood, this darling little house (it's really too big for the term apartment to apply) was a real treat. It has everything you could want for an extended stay - large kitchen, large living room area with breakfast nook and two great bedrooms. Jeff was a great and communicative host. We'd definitely stay there again.

Great hideway

We loved staying in this unit. Tons of space, if you're traveling with family and pets. We had three small dogs, who loved the running around the property. Bedrooms are a big size with big open windows, which were great for reading or catching a view. A very cozy and comfortable feeling. Definitely felt like being home. Tons to do nearby. You can even catch a ferry over to CT. Everything you need within 8 minutes of this location. Loved it, will absolutely return. XOXOXO to Chico d' dog.. He is missed. Thank you again.
