10/10 Excellent
"The property size to accommodate our party was perfect. Particularly that each group had their own bathroom. The seventh room and bathroom probably should be clarified that it is not in the home and that it size is quite small. We did not utilize that room as our party had gotten smaller. However, had we planned on using all seven rooms that would’ve been disappointing to have people outside of the actual home. Other than that, we found the home to be perfectly suited for our family. The home is older. It does have that beach wood odor to it. I don’t think that there’s anything that can be done about that. Otherwise everything was quite clear the codes available everything opened as we anticipated. We did have one issue with a water faucet in one of the downstairs bathrooms on our last day, which was readily responded to Thank you for having us and we would consider renting this property again. There were 13 of us the location to the surrounding amenities in bubble Bay and the beach with the extra parking lot that is adjacent was very accommodating to what we needed."

"The photos were deceiving-in the best way! The property was much larger than expected, very clean, and located right on the waterfront with easy access in and out. Communication with Pat was excellent-quick and easy throughout our stay.One thing to note: while the property does include a garage, extended SUVs (ESV) won’t fit, so street parking may be needed. Overall, a great stay and we’d absolutely recommend it."
