This is a beautiful home with amazing views of the strait. The beds are huge and very comfortable! The home is well equipped with everything you would need and in very close proximity to groceries, liquor stores etc.
Property was great. Comfortable with a nice kitchen and a beautiful view. Was not expecting the stairs up to the main floor but that wasn't a problem for us. Also close to basic stores for groceries and that sort of thing.

We really appreciate your kind review. It was a pleasure hosting you!
The house was exceptionally clean and well represented in the description. View was spectacular. Steep driveway for parking but manageable. Stairs to the upper level were a little hard to manage with luggage and a downstairs bathroom would be helpful. There was a little street noise but nothing too bothersome. House was close to grocery, restaurants, etc. We were three retired couples staying. Families splitting up into bedrooms may want to consider age of the children. Overall we had a great stay at a lovely home.
This place was very clean, spacious , well kept with stunning views!The rooms are well equipped with towels. Kitchen was sufficiently stocked with the basics . The host is very responsive and helpful. We had difficulties with the functioning of the fireplace and the host was extremely helpful. Expect the bedroom on level 1 next to the main entrance, to be cold.A definite yes, and we will visit again. Very good space for a family or just a couple. Quiet and private.
