Great house, check-in was super easy and the owner provided simple but detailed directions to the property and instructions about the house. The location was great- next to multiple major island lakes and trailheads, close to town, and passed by both a gas station and electrical charger on route to the house. We did have some issue with the wifi while we were there when it went out for a few days and we couldn’t get it back on, and a few of the outlets didn’t work. Overall great stay and the owners were great to communicate with, a 4 star rating because of the electrical.issues. ##### Naomi L.

It was a lovely home & soooo clean!! That’s the one thing most important to me is cleanliness. This house had everything you could possibly need as well as spices and some condiments along with coffee and a welcome bottle of wine. I highly recommend this house for anyone on the fence wondering if it’s going to work for their needs. I would stay here again if we ever go back to Orcus. ##### Jammie R.

The house was immaculately clean and very well equipped. The yard/garden was beautiful and very peaceful and private. The beds were very comfortable and the bedding was super nice. After a couple visits to East Sound, which was very fun, we were happy to be located on a quieter location of the island. Hope to return and would recommend this property to anyone! ##### Jesse F.

Very clean and well-stocked. The grounds were fantastic for playing hide and seek and other fun ball games. The location is very serene and feels private. There is a main road bordering the property, but it's a country road with few cars traveling on it. Not a big deal at all. Also had A/C for some hot days. Loved this house! ##### Amy F.

Aug 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect family spot This was a grandparent vacation with our son and his family of 2 boys. The upstairs/downstairs worked perfectly. The house was comfortable and clean. The boys loved picking blackberries. It was quiet with lovely light. ##### Cherie F.
