House and accommodations were nice. Because I had teens with me would consider a home elsewhere

Nice accommodations. We were hardly in home. Out from sunup to sundown. Prepped no meals in home.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Beautiful home, great location, with the exception of the bridge being closed down. We wanted to be within walking distance of everything, but the bridge being closed Made that impossible. Something I wish I had know before booking. That’s not the owners fault, overall beautiful home, everything you need. A few outlets didn’t work, texts asking questions answered very quickly even during the holiday. I would definitely recommend and if I’m ever in the area, would use again.
