Aug 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Last minute reservation and stay at the Lookout, so we stayed in the handicap unit, which was the only available unit to rent. Everything was fine, except there were no comfortable chairs, except on the deck. We assumed this is because a handicap person wouldn't need one. The only general comment was the a/c was noisy at night. On the second night we shut it down as it was cool enough outside not to need it. Otherwise everything was fine. ##### Darryl D.
