Beautiful historical house. Very clean and comfortable. The bedrooms are large and have tv’s. Walking distance to the river and restaurants. The owner was very responsive.

The location is great, a short walk to the beach. Plenty of beach and bathroom towels, the host is very quick to reply to messages, it was nice to have shampoo, conditioner and body wash in the bathrooms, a plus is the ability to park in a closed gate area, unfortunately the house was poorly equipped, only 2 hangers in the room amd one was broken, no full broom, just the end of the broom, not enough pots or pans to cook, missing handles and no mixing bowls, only one full roll of paper towels, the outside shower that we were asked to used when coming from the beach, was dirty, trash and full of sand on the drain area and the light didn't work. It seemed that nobody came to check the house to make sure it was ready, my experience is that renting a house Vs staying on a hotel is because it has all the necessities and looks like someone lives there, the kitchen table was dirty and sticky, im sorry that i couldn't leave a better review, once the host addresses those inconveniences the stay is complete.

Wonderful holiday weekend

This property is amazing. The host was extremely accommodating and the house was perfect. We needed somewhere to get together as a family for Easter and this property was exactly what we needed. We had an Easter egg hunt in the back patio area and Easter dinner at the huge dining room table. We could not have asked for a better experience.
