We were pleasantly surprised when we entered the home. We felt immediately at home. Having the backyard accessible through the back door of the house was a plus. Our hosts were kind and responsive. We felt safe and well taken care of. Since we are “country mice” coming to a city home, we forgot how bright the street lamps can be. A sleep mask took care of that! Thanks for a lovely stay and for the brochures on the home tours and the tree carvings. We saw most of them!

We had a wonderful stay at Justin and Lindsey’s place! The home was exactly as described, clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully stocked with everything I needed. The location was really close to the beach m. Check-in was smooth, and communication with the host was prompt and friendly. I especially appreciated the cute aesthetic.
