Relax at Big Blue

We reserved Big Blue for a short stay before going on vacation out of the country. Jamie and Jason - the property managers - were very quick to respond to any questions we had prior to our stay and for any issues we had during our stay. The house is huge - plenty of room for your group. There were just 2 of us with our dog, but we chose this property because they have a fenced-in back yard and allow pets. The house is well stocked with everything you'll need for your stay. We just enjoyed relaxing and were happy to be able to use the brand new outdoor hot tub. We will definitely be returning for another stay! Thank you for everything! Sally & Matt & Jasper

Girls weekend

This listing was perfect. The house was very clean, spacious and beautifully decorated. I would totally stay here again. The only thing I would change is either the 10:00 am check out or the 4:00 pm check-in it made our short stay feel even shorter.

Big Blue was exactly as pictured

The rental was beautifully decorated and very clean. We had plenty of room and enjoyed our time there. It was easy to lock and unlock and we loved all the special touches (examples are the Q-tips and cotton balls, shampoo and conditioner, etc.). There were lots of towels and pillows and blankets to use. We would definitely book it again. We enjoyed our time there.
