Perfect pet friendly
This house was perfect for our son and his lab! Close to the marina where we were staying. The fenced on backyard was great for the dog. The back yard had a grill that we did not use this time also looked like a great area for a family get together. Mathew was an attentive host

First, our host was very pleasant, and he was accessible. Second, the location is within a mile or so of a lovely beach. We did enjoy our trip. But this property has been neglected. Maybe it was a recent purchase. There is evidence of some effort at quick repairs, but truly, it needs more work. It’s rough. My constructive advice is to control moisture, ensure drawers and cabinets in the kitchen have handles and open and close without sticking, ensure that the oven can light, that chests in the bedrooms can be used by guests and are not full of tools and paint supplies, and invest in better pillows and bed linens. Take a batch of new pictures for the website and relaunch. A binder with literature about nearby attractions would also be welcome.
