Andrea was a very considerate host with great communication. Her attentiveness madenthe check in process extremely easy. The home is truly a cosy getaway perfect for pet friendly family time.
This house was amazing. Beautiful and everything was as described in the listing - perfect size for our family and a great, cozy environment to meet our new grandson. Andrea was amazing - she provided a detailed book of things to do and places to go on the island, proper instructions on checking in and out, and was very helpful and friendly to work with. Definitely worth another stay in the future!

What a beautiful home to stay in on the island. Very clean and this place has all of the extras. My only complaint was the ice machine was not working. Other than that everything was perfect.
We loved our stay at Andrea's house. The bedrooms were spacious, the great room bright and airy, and the beds comfy, with thoughtful touches everywhere. The fenced-in backyard was a perfect spot for our 2 older dogs to lounge and our 3 kids to play soccer, volleyball, and football. The beach was a ten-minute walk down the hill and went for what felt like miles to the south without a house in sight. We got lucky with tons of sunshine, but on the one day it rained, we lit a fire in the woodstove and curled up on the large, comfortable L-shaped couch to read books and watch movies. The dog-friendly touches were really nice too, like a basket with dog towels and tennis balls, and a soft dog bed that our 13-year-old pup enjoyed dozing on. All in all, a wonderful spot for a spring break to remember!

Thank you for the photos! It’s so rewarding to see the enjoyment of the furry guests too. Isn’t the community beach such a gem?
One of the best rentals we've ever stayed at. Spacious living areas and bedrooms, full kitchen, wood fireplace, and a fenced backyard for playing with our dog. Quick walk to a beach, and short drive to Coupeville. Would absolutely stay here again!
