10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic house! It's offered by an agency and I don't think they are doing justice for this place, I literally think they don't really know many details. First and foremost, huge area for parking, flat, half moon driveway, can fit more than 4 cars if needed. Dock - super close, 3 minute walk and NO, it's NOT up the hill. Beach towels - available at the property, don't need to bring your own.This house has a lot of silverware, dishes, etc. Seems that owners stay there as well at times. For straight up rentals, so many pots, pans, etc are usually not included.Very fast communication, although at times, instead of an actual answer, you'll get a standard msg from the property rental company.Overall, superb accommodations!!! Loved everything about the house, including the stairs to the 2nd level from the outside, worked fabulously for our group. Would absolutely, without a doubt stay here again!"
