Spring break at the coastal cottage
We loved our stay at the cottage! The house was immaculate and comfortable. I loved the thoughtful details like the record player with vintage albums (my daughter enjoyed playing them!), the shampoo and body wash in the shower, and the Nespresso pods. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was nicely stocked. The location is very convenient for grocery shopping (nearby Whole Foods and Trader Joe's) and you're two minutes away from Pizza My Heart. Brayton was very responsive and helpful with any questions, and he provided a helpful link with details about the house and the area. Awesome stay and would 100% recommend!

Nice Getaway
Property was just as described. Communication with the property manager was top notch. He was very responsive. When I experienced some difficulties with the TV I was able to communicate using the VRBO app. I could not work the TV using the printed instructions posted nearby. I couldn't turn on the TV with the remote, so I assumed its batteries were dead. The manager had Doordash deliver fresh batteries to the doorstep within 10 minutes. However, that wasn't the problem. The remote control apparently only controlled the Roku stick that was plugged into the TV. I was never able to use the power button on the remote to turn on the TV. Instead, I had to manually power on the TV by pressing the switch located under the red light on the unit. Then I would have to select the proper input channel for the attached sound bar otherwise there would be no audio. Again, I had to look for a button to press and figure out what the correct input channel was. At that point I was able to register my accounts and was able to stream my shows. I had to push the button on the TV to turn it off, too. This isn't a complaint. I'm merely including this as part of my review as reference so other guests can work the TV. Otherwise, everything else went smoothly and I would absolutely return for repeat stays.

Family Getaway
Our family needed a little time away from our daily busy routines. A getaway up north and a stay at this modern, comfortable, and cute cottage were exactly what we needed. We look forward to visiting again.
