This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher R. 24 Jun 2024 #### Amazing view The “holy (expletive)” - quality view from the viewing deck a short walk from the house is worth the price of admission. Other than that, it’s a rustic cottage. We slept well. The fridge, TV, etc all work. You’re not expecting opulence for this nightly rate. ##### Christopher R. ### 8/10 Good #### Chris F. 10 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great oceanside retreat Nice cottage! However, has issues with water pressure when another visitor inhabited the next door cottage. But it got resolved that day. Dish drying rack in kitchen and ice trays in freezer would be good. Also, bedside table(s). ##### Chris F. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### John M. 23 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Unplug Weekend Property was amazing. Easy check in and the management company was awesome. Had a faulty fire alarm go ff while we were out and everything was fixed upon our return. The views were as advertised. Plenty of great wineries and food within 30 minutes as well. One suggestion would be to provide instructions for the fireplace as the wording on the buttons have worn off. Directions for the heater would be good too. Other than that, highly recommend this property for couples. Kids may be bored but perfect spot for a romantic weekend. ##### John M.
