Tranquil Family Gathering

This is a true four bedroom, but the number of beds and bathrooms is correct. The outdoor living space is fantastic, very quiet and peaceful setting. Close to everything. Good for large dinners and seating. Hot tub works.

Beautiful Water-side Property

Stayed here for a small gathering of friends for a weekend and could not have been more happy. This Vrbo had than enough space for our 8 person and 1 dog stay, and the large entertainment areas made it easy for everyone hang out and relax. Although we didn't have time to use the hot tub, the host let us use a kayak they had on site and we had a great time taking turns kayaking in the canal. The weather was beautiful, which added to how nice the location is. Check in and check out was easy and simple, and the host was extremely responsive to all questions I had prior to the stay and even during our stay.

Stayed here with family while in town for a nearby wedding. There was plenty of space for 8 adults and 2 children. There was enough parking for our 4 cars and we could have fit a 5th. All bedding and furniture were clean. We couldn’t get the propane grill to work or else I would’ve given 5 stars. All other appliances worked just fine. Whole Foods and Target nearby was a huge benefit for a quick meal and necessities. Overall trip was pleasant and would stay again.

LIES IN THE LISTING - ONLY 4 BEDROOMS!!!

The listing claims 5 bedrooms and 7 beds. THIS IS A LIE! The house has 4 bedrooms and 5 beds. Host was argumentative and unwilling to make things right by me and my team some of which had to sleep on couches. Host texted morning of check out and told us to leave by 10am when the listing says 11am. The house is old and outdated. Worst experience EVER!!!Do not rent from this liar.

Title: Highly Discouraging Experience - Extortion Attempt and False Accusations Review: I regret to share our deeply unfortunate experience with Joshua during his recent stay at our property. While we take great pride in providing exceptional service and maintaining the highest standards of integrity, Joshua's conduct was unacceptable and left us with no choice but to warn fellow hosts about his behavior. Upon discovering that our property did not fully meet his expectations, Joshua attempted to extort $1000 from us by threatening to leave a negative review if we did not comply. We declined to engage in such unethical behavior, and, as a result, he carried out his threat with a defamatory review filled with false accusations. Our property listing clearly stated that it has 5 beds in 4 rooms, with one large bedroom combining 2 rooms and featuring 2 queen-sized beds. However, Joshua falsely claimed that we lied about the number of bedrooms and beds in our listing. Moreover, he inaccurately alleged that our property lacked hot water, despite his team eventually confirming that it was available after letting it run for a short time. Joshua's attempt at extortion, along with his false and misleading review, has led us to strongly advise other hosts against renting their properties to him. We hope our experience serves as a cautionary tale for hosts seeking to maintain an honest and trustworthy hosting community. we implore fellow hosts to be wary of Joshua unethical tactics

Good place to stay for a quick overnight trip to marin.

This property offered a great water view and plenty of space, which made it perfect for our group of eight to stay comfortably. While the home hasn’t had many updates since it was originally built, we actually found that added to its charm.The backyard could use a bit of landscaping and cleanup, but the outdoor seating was great—we enjoyed appetizers out there and even did some fishing off the dock.One downside was that the master bathroom didn’t have hot water, though the other three bathrooms did, so it wasn’t a major issue for us. The beds were very comfortable, and the bedding was exceptionally clean.The host was also wonderful—very responsive whenever we had questions or needed anything. We had a little delay getting acces information, but once we called him, it all worked out. We were told chdckout would be 10, but after we asked for and extra hour he was kind and extended it. The home is located in a lively neighborhood, which we found to be kind of cool. On Friday night, there were a lot of street vendors set up on the street nearby, and we found some delicious, authentic Mexican food just around the corner on Canal Street. That was definitely a cool bonus!

Listing is not accurate

House is a 4 bedroom home with 5 beds, there is no 5th bedroom. Location approximation on the map shows the house on one side of the river when its really on the other. Neighborhoods are VERY different from one side to the other. Booked our stay before the other review stating the same was posted. If you're traveling with younger kids, worth noting that the front door has no additional locking mechanisms inside other than it locks when it shuts, so them opening the door if someone knocks or opening the door and walking out easily is a concern. Also the slider in the master doesn't lock and is secured by a wooden dowel, and one of the bathrooms has a door directly to the back patio/river area. Check in communication from the host was clear and easy, but again, until this listing is updated, it is not a 5 bedroom and is not located where the pin approximates, so take that into account when considering booking.

Deceptive Listing & Communication

As many reviews have pointed out prior to me, this listing is deceptive and the host is very well aware of the inaccuracies in the listing. If you are willing to be gaslit and lied to- please stay here!First off- the reviews posting the inaccuracies were after my booking but before my stay- thus I had no idea prior to booking of what was to come. Given I booked months in advance, additional reviews were posted, giving me an idea of what was to come- and frankly hoped that the issues were fixed. My three biggest main gripes:- There are NOT five bedrooms- there are only four. The host is well aware and continues to post it as-such which is deceiving his future visitors into believing there is more available space than there is. - There is NOT air conditioning. We stayed on a particular hot weekend, and while there are MULTIPLE thermostats on property- the host informed me they do not actually work. The listing states air conditioning is available.- Checkout time IS 11AM. The day prior to checkout the host texts me that checkout is 10AM- when I refer to the original listing, he implies he is doing me a "favor" by letting me checkout later. Overall, the property itself is fine and nice. There is no street parking but the driveway easily fit 4 cars. The neighborhood felt slightly sketchy but the home is on a cul-de-sac. The backyard is the highlight which sits on the water with some great views.

Subject: Response to Misleading Review and Unfounded Complaints Dear Potential Guests, We are compelled to respond to Mr. Ryan's review, as it contains multiple inaccuracies and misrepresents our property. It is disappointing when a guest, such as Mr. Ryan, chooses to be dishonest and distort their experience in this manner. Allow us to clarify the points raised: 1. The listing is accurately described as a five-bedroom house, according to the official plans submitted to the city. We opted to combine two bedrooms into one large room to offer a more expansive view of the water, as requested by many of our previous guests. This detail is clearly highlighted in our listing, but Mr. Ryan overlooked it and misrepresented this fact in his review. 2. We have never advertised our property as having air conditioning, as the majority of homes in the area, including ours, do not require it due to the cool climate. Despite this, Mr. Ryan complained about the lack of air conditioning, which is not a feature we have ever claimed to offer. 3. Our standard checkout time is 10 AM, as stated in our communications. Due to an error on our site that indicated an 11 AM checkout, we allowed Mr. Ryan to stay longer as a courtesy. We were surprised to see him misrepresent this accommodation as an inconvenience. In conclusion, we strongly refute the claims made by Mr. Ryan in his review. It is regrettable when guests choose to misrepresent their experience and ignore important details provided.

NOT 5 bedrooms!

Hmm where to start … the view and location was quite nice. My complaint is that the listing says it is 5 bedrooms and it is NOT. Why? Why do they list it as a 5bedroom and provide photos for 5 bedrooms when it is only 4 bedrooms?!? We rents it because we needed 5!!!Also, the electrical outlets did not work - in the primary bedroom we could not find one plug that worked. The lamps did not work, the tv didn’t work, and we couldn’t charge our phone. The space itself was nice and functional and the kitchen was very well stocked and had everything you need. Communication was weird. A video was sent with check in instructions—which were easy. No address was given and then on check out day the owner tried to FaceTime me at 8:15am!!! And then texted that check out was 10am when the posting clearly states 11am. When I told him I wasn’t leaving until 11am and sent him a screen shot of the posting he acted like he was doing me a favor letting us stay until 11am. Lame. I did not complain about any of this - largely because of his reaction to the renter right before us (whose review was not posted when I reserved the property, or I would have known it was only 4 bedrooms). We were all women staying there and did not want any trouble. I’m hoping this review makes him change the post—also, there is some reference to a Hawaiian oasis in the post—not even close. Maybe he repurposed an old listing?? The property was fine, I’d have been much happier if the listing was ACCURATE!
