Great place

We rented the whole house for my mom’s 70th and it was just perfect. Just a short walk to the down town area. The fire table outside was a huge hit as well.

We were not aware that this was a two apartment set up in this home and the interior stairway to the rooms upstairs were narrow. A little difficult for 70 guests. We did not see anything in the listing about this. The first floor could use better seating around a table instead of a single bench, and would be more beneficial than a grand piano taking up space. Location was great to the port area. We did enjoy our stay.

Beautiful place

Beautiful place in a great location. Restaurants and shopping was a short walk away. The place had a full kitchen. It was great to have the upstairs and downstairs space. If you are a quiet sleeper, I'd recommend the upstairs space. Downstairs you can hear the people walking around upstairs so if they aren't in the same schedule as you it could be distracting if you are a light sleeper.

We had a wonderful stay! The home is very charming with a mix of rustic and modern. I had hit some bumps with my booking and Dave was there to help through the process and was very attentive with responses during our stay. The house was in a great location plenty of stuff within walking distance. Highly recommend, thanks again Dave!
