This was a beautiful location for my family to celebrate Thanksgiving together. Unfortunately, the details of the listing were not accurate and I believe transparency is important when spending this amount of money on a rental. Please note, there is a 7 day minimum. The owner did not offer less than 7 days but did offer 2 additional days in lieu of a discount (which were not used). 1. Bedding/pillows were stained - I would suggest bringing your own 2. Fireplaces in listed are not functional 2. The dryer is not working (as stated in previous review- not working for months) 3. Washing machine is showing an error message - did not work during our stay 4. First floor bathroom - no hot water 5. Second floor hallway bathroom - water handle broken and moves to scolding hot water which is concerning for the children bathing 6. 3rd floor does not have any smoke/CO detectors attached. This level also gets extremely warm and we had to open the windows which do not have screens. During our stay, the pendant light in the kitchen was leaking. This light was not working upon arrival which leads me to believe this was an issue in the past. The water was continuous for hours. The owner instructed us to not turn on the light and put a bucket under the light to catch the water. Both obvious instructions that had already been done. This was a major safety concern since the light was still wired. Owner was quick to respond but did not offer any refund for the issues stated.

Checked in, found no toilet paper in master bathroom. TP holder missing from wall, shower hand held hose aged and split (non-operational), some lights didn’t work. Another bathroom had vomit remains in the trash can (but there was a fresh bag over it!). Prepared to do laundry and found the dryer was broken and according to notes left, had been for many weeks. We contacted owner who said to use the laundromat in town!! Are you kidding?! At $700 plus a night i don’t expect to spend my days at a laundromat!! No attempt to repair or replace the dryer, just ignore the problem as with many other items. Beds were all stained and some mattresses were on the floor. The main stairway is a safety hazard descending as there is no visual differentiation in the stairs, needs paint or colored tape. I could go on for many pages, there is so much to describe that is broken or unsafe. I am shocked VRBO would accept this rental but I guess I’m just naive. In my opinion this is just a money grad by a non-caring owner. So much improvement could be done with minimal investment.

As always we really love this large house overlooking the bay. We enjoyed the seals roaring in the early sunrise. The kitchen is very good. Our family looks forward to our stay. There are usually some quirks with the house but Eric tries to correct them. It was a pleasure.

If you’re looking for the finest linens, the best beds, and the fanciest accommodations, you might want to look elsewhere. While this house is in a perfect spot (amazing views, walkable bars and restaurants and stores, amazing neighbors), and has a ton of space, it isn’t quite what we thought it would be. It was supposed to sleep 14, however we slept 10. Very little furniture in this house. While it’s supposed to allow 14 people to live and sleep in it, no room sits more than 8. If you have small children and are worried about stairs, this house is not for you. Some beds were not put together. The best views in the house and the quietest spot for working are on the third floor. However, speaking of windows, many of them were screwed shut (along with some doors), and many rooms had their smoke detectors removed. The 2nd floor patio was not available for use. It has a great outdoor porch/yard to hang out in. There is no immediate place to swim. If you’re a super picky person, this house might drive you nuts. The bathrooms BADLY need some sort of hooks or shelves for people to store their stuff. The kitchen is AMAZING! But for all of the issues with things, if it went up for sale for a fair price my husband and I would scoop it up. We made some amazing memories, the owner was super responsive & the Wi-Fi carried the load of multiple people teleworking. It was an amazing house for our trip, and suited our lowkey needs of space, beds and a place to make memories.

Excellent

Great place for a large family gathering. House is old and had a few maintenance issues but the amazing view, spacious kitchen where you can cook with a view, and all the space made up for those issues.

Great location, huge house priced fair, a little outdated but clean, I would recommend it.
