Home is spacious and well maintained. Had a great time with my family. Note that it is adjacent to the highway so noisy if outside but cannot hear it while inside.

Thank you for the lovely review. We're so glad the space gave your family room to enjoy your time together and that the home felt so well cared for. You make a fair point about the highway noise outside, and it's good to know the interior stayed nice and quiet for you. We'd be delighted to welcome you and your family back anytime.

Great property with a nice size yard for the dogs to run in. The only downside to the spot is that it sits right next to the freeway. I have to add that the road noise was almost non existent due to excellent adjuncts by the owners.

Relaxing long weekend get away…

We had a great stay! The house was very clean and well equipped. Easy to get around and a short drive to the beach and restaurants, but felt remote. The management company was awesome to work with. Would stay again!

We very much enjoyed our stay! Property has generous amount of outdoor space. No immediate neighboring properties, making it feel remote/relaxing. Some ambient noise from the expressway (blocked completely by fence lining the entire side of the large yard), but not to the point of distraction. A variety of areas to walk, including a nature preserve with hiking trails across the street. Interior is beautiful and tastefully appointed with higher end fixtures/decor and light hardwood floors. Immaculately clean. Mattresses, linens and towels all seem recently installed. Kitchen is large and well stocked. Newer model appliances and gas grill. Comfortable and spacious dining areas in kitchen (large round table for 6) and window enclosed back porch (long rectangular wooden plank table seating for 8). Outdoor fire pit (BYO firewood).Very airy and cool, with excellent thermostat to counter the heat. Short drive to beaches, restaurants and Harbor County attractions. Pet friendly makes it near pefect!

Thank you for such a detailed and generous review. We're delighted that the wide-open outdoor space and the quiet, remote feel made the stay so relaxing, and that the nature preserve across the street gave you plenty of room to wander. It means a lot to hear the interior felt immaculate and thoughtfully appointed, right down to the fresh linens and the well-stocked kitchen. The two dining areas and the fire pit are favorites of ours too, and we're glad the pet-friendly touch rounded it all out. We'd love to host you and your companions again whenever you're back near Harbor County. The VueStay Team

Girls getaway

The house was in a good location fairly close to restaurants ,shopping, beaches, and wineries. Although we didn’t cook any meals in, the kitchen was very new and well stocked. Even though temperatures were extremely hot the days we were there, we did enjoy the enclosed porch and the covered outside area.

Enjoyed a girls getaway. Property was fairly close to restaurants, shopping, beaches and wineries. The kitchen was new and well stocked with new dishes etc. We had issues with the thermostat but got a prompt response from the property manager. Private location. Too hot to enjoy the outside space but has a nice fire pit.
This buck came for a visit and later a doe. We were able to enjoy the outside seating one evening.
