Awesome home in the woods!

This is a quiet home in a beautiful neighborhood. Step into a time gone by with the decor, but with all the modern amenities. Enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an evening glass of wine in the hot tub. Lots of nooks & crannies to spread out the family.

Comfortable with beautiful surroundings

With the exception of us having to leaf blow the driveway to distinguish driveway from yard, our stay was exceptional. Spoless house.Houswa

Charming and Unique Home

The personality of this wonderful home charmed us. The soaring wood paneling, comfortable furnishings, and unique layout stole our hearts. The upstairs loft is full of rare children's books; the downstairs den has a piano and plenty of sheet music. This is not a generic "hotel" experience. The personal touches make it feel as though you've walked into the civilized home of some very cultured and sophisticated people. The imaginative use of lofts and interior balconies feature skylights giving views of tree tops. We are eager to return!

Nice home but disappointing experience

pros of house: well stocked kitchen, great location (close to downtown and beaches), very quiet cons of house: need better window treatments in the bedrooms Additionally, we had issues with the heat/hot water during our stay, where we did not have either for almost 24 hours, and traveling with a baby, we could not stay in the house because it was 54 degrees and ended up having to check out early. The problem has since been addressed by the management team and we are appreciative of that. There was also a large amount of mouse poop in the garage (there was NO evidence of anything in the house), but this was less than ideal because we were at the house with our dog who kept getting into it. I do think these issues will 100% be fixed for the next renters (I think my family and I "took one for the team") but I do think its important to be transparent about our experience.
