We had a great time! The pool table and foosball table were a hit and the steam room was such a lovely perk. The reason we gave it a four instead of a five is because the interior stairs are pretty steep and having to go up and down between the entertainment space and full kitchen was not ideal. Overall it was a really nice spot and the views were beautiful. We'd stay here again for sure.

Beautiful location
Our group of women friends has been getting together for a long summer weekend every year for almost 30 years now, so we've rented a lot of large houses! Highs: location, location, location. The view is fantastic, the walk to access the water is quite reasonable, and the neighborhood is quiet and good for long walks. Sleeping arrangements were also pretty good for 12 adults, which can be challenging. Not-so-highs: the kitchen on the main level (as expected) was a bit small (two cooks max at a time) and the pots, pans, dishes, etc. could use some refreshing and additions.

Family Friendly Home with Beautiful Views
The property was perfect for our group of seven adults. There was plenty of space for us all to spread out and lots of space for us to spend time together. The views were amazing! We loved watching the sunrise in the morning and being able to sit together at the table and enjoy a meal while looking out over the sound. Communication was good, however because it is rented through a rental agency the responses could be a bit slow and lacking depth at points. The kitchen was moderately well stocked, it definitely could do with an update on some cooking utensils but we were able to get by with what was there. Overall we really loved the space and would definitely rebook!

Just Spectacular
Love love love the view and the property. It is well maintained with such thoughtful additions. Hottub and steam room were such nice add-ons. Made our trip more relaxing. The host was very good with their communication, even followed up throughout our stay, and made sure we had everything. I couldn't get enough of the views. I'm reducing one star because of the cleaning checklist for the checkout process. We had to finish the laundry wait until the washer cycle is finished and then transfer it to the dryer, do the dishes(and place them back where we found them), pick up trash from all rooms, and throw them at the end of the driveway. This requires 1.5 hours of set time during checkout plus there is an additional cleaning fee. Maybe this is just me who finds it too much to do when I'm there on vacation for 2 days. I would prefer to start the dishes and laundry but waiting for them to be completed consumes time. But the listed inconvenience would not stop me from going there again or referring to my friends. Because it is absolutely worth it.

Great house for family vacation
This house is amazing! It was wonderful for our group of 3 families. The view was incredible and the kids loved the game room. The steam room was luxurious and there was also a hot tub there which was a nice surprise. It was a perfect place to watch the sunrise.

Stunning ocean view and a lot of games for the whole family
Seeing the ocean right when I woke up in the morning made a great start for the day. Foosball, pool table, mini-golf, different board games, and tree swing in front of the house made kids happy the whole day. The house is super clean. All the cooking and dining stuff needed are there. There's even rice in the kitchen. And we all enjoyed the relaxing steam room at night. So the whole family love the stay. We walked to the boat launch spot and drove to other state parks nearby. Too bad it's not hot summer day yet for kayaking or boating. We will come back again in a few months. :) Host Jean is great. Very prompt and easy to communicate. Highly recommended!
