Great place!

We visited for a few days to decompress, explore the area, and take our new dog for his first getaway. The house was perfect for all 3 of us and we really enjoyed our stay! Everything was spotless and the area was great to walk our dog around. It is close to shops and the beach as well. Overall, it was an excellent stay and we had some great memories - hope to visit again soon!

A lovely respite in a sometimes crazy world.

Steve & Ed's attention to detail makes their place exceptional. They have made sure every room in the condo is just right including lovely bath towels, linens, and a kitchen that has all the utensils for a good chef. And, to top it off the beach is just a short walk away. We are looking forward to coming back!

Great location, well-appointed and cozy

We really enjoyed this pup-friendly unit. All the creature comforts were included to make it feel like home - nice dishes and cookware, beach gear, lots of seating options in the unit and outdoor space to enjoy the end of summer. Short walk to the beach and food. Would definitely recommend!

Great place!

This is the second time we've stayed here. Property is well taken care of and the owners are very responsive. Its convenient to downtown and only a 4 minute walk to Willard Beach. Bonus is being across the street from Scratch Bakery. Would recommend and would stay here again. Thanks Steve and Ed for another great stay.

Phenomenal location for a beautiful period home

This is a beautiful turn-of-the-century home that has been very tastefully updated to include the historic elements while offering modern conveniences. Every conceivable amenity was provided in the home to make it feel like "home". And the location is second to none! We would definitely stay here again, and highly recommend it.

The most considerate hosts!

We have stayed in many homes and this one is special. The hosts have thought of everything to make our stay comfortable from charging stations, ice makers, beach towels, even sunglasses if we forgot to bring them! The beds are very comfortable and the living room seating is adequate for 4 adults or more. It too is very cozy. The art work is inspiring and we felt at home as soon as we walked in. For Gluten Free guests, don't miss Otto's GF pizza. It blew us away.
