Cozy get away

Stayed at the property with just myself and partner. Host was amazing and prompt with responses. The property was clean and the views were beautiful. We will return to this property when we need a quiet place to unwind and be away from crowds and the hustle of work.

Peaceful stay with room for small improvements

We stayed for 5 days and really enjoyed the peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The property was relaxing, and we especially loved the beautiful sunset views.That said, there were a few things we felt could be improved. It was a bit difficult to find the location when we first arrived, and for a group of four staying multiple days, the supplies provided were very limited — only one roll of toilet paper, one trash bag, and a single packet of laundry and dishwasher detergent. We didn’t reach out to the manager and ended up buying our own, but it would’ve been helpful to have a bit more provided upfront.Overall, it was a pleasant stay in a lovely setting, just a few minor things that could make the experience even better.

Almost perfect

The house was nice. The covered deck overlooking the bay was perfect. Such a peaceful area for a couple that wants to reconnect. I told my wife that I I would rate this as a 10 out of 10 except for one thing. That bed! It is way too soft. Upgrade it please!

Very nice, clean and comfortable. Just right for a couple. We fished, enjoyed the sunsets from the pier and had a great vaca. The bed was so comfortable and the shower was great. Kitchen was set up really nice. We loved the back deck.
