House and host were amazing. We did have some issues with tying up the boat in the specified 20ft slip. Boats 18ft and over will be super tight in the area and the neighbors complained about it. Seemed like the neighbors typically take up that dock space and they can’t use it while the house in occupied with guest that have a boat. Over great house and host though!

Thank you so much for your kind words about the home and hosting, we’re really glad to hear you had a great overall stay. We also sincerely appreciate you sharing your experience regarding the boat slip. We’ve taken this feedback seriously and have since updated our policy to help prevent this issue moving forward. The slip is now limited to boats 18 feet and under, and we also require a boat registration form prior to arrival to ensure proper coordination and avoid any confusion with dock usage. Your insight is truly helpful in improving the guest experience, and we’re grateful you took the time to share it. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future!
