Four friends spent the week at this location. The house was set up nice and was very clean. We did not notice in the description that it did not have a washer and dryer and we were only provided one bath towel per person. It took us three calls to the rental company before they delivered extra towels. That should be considered in cases where there is no washer or dryer. We also didn't notice that a dishwasher wasn't included but that wasn't much of an issue because we used paper plates throughout the week. The decks, back yard and dock were all very nice and we enjoyed spending a good part of our time outside.

I stayed here for a few nights with friends and it was wonderful! The location is great—it was lovely being right on the water, but also close to all the local wineries and towns. There was plenty of space for the 4 of us, and the host was very communicative. Would stay here again!

The lower level bathroom water smelled like sewer/sulfur when you turned on sink faucet and smelled the entire house up after shower ran. Text to request service and said they would send someone. We were gone for the day and had given the ok for someone to come in. When we returned that evening turned on water and smell was still very strong. Called the next morning to see what they had found out and was told they had not sent anyone because they had an emergency but would send someone that day around lunch time. asked if they could let me know what they found. We returned in the evening the door for water heater closet was open and the smell was still there I received no communication from property management during our stay regarding this problem. The entire house had to share the tight stall shower upstairs.
