The place was clean and very comfortable for our stay. A little different walking in and out through the bedroom.Al was very nice, quick to respond to all my emails and text! Super host!

Al, the host, is definitely what makes the stay memorable. He is a very sweet, talented, and generous man. The home itself was very comfortable for my husband and me, and our two dogs. The kitchen and living area were a good size, and there are four bedrooms! The home is close enough to the downtown area to walk to the shops and restaurants, and the waterfront is just beyond that. Great place for a small group like ours or a whole family!
6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2025
The owner was very good to work with and responsive. When we let him know that the coffee maker wasnt working, he replaced it immediately. It was great that the 4 adults were all able to have their own bedroom. It was a bit of a walk to downtown, but totally doable.The main reason for the mark down is that we feel like the description was not accurate. It is listed as a newer, whole house rental. This is an older house and the rental is the back half of the house only. The rental area is a cobbled together space and felt very unfinished. To enter the property, you walk through one of the bedrooms. The only full bath is in a converted back porch that didnt have air and I'm not sure if it would be heated in the winter. One of the bedrooms is a closed off space with no windows or heat/cooling vents. The towels and bedding were all old and mismatched, but they were clean.Overall, the space worked for us, but didnt match with the description and we were a bit uncomfortable knowing that it was a shared property.
