Oct 7, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful location with lots of privacy The location is lovely, great views of the ocean, although best observed from the upper level viewing chairs inside. There is a huge wraparound deck, with one side facing the ocean, and the other facing the secluded forest. The hot tub location faces the forest, and was very private and quiet. My negative note is the sofa in the living room is quite old, to the point where some of the seams are coming undone. Overall, this was a very nice home with an excellent location, and would be great for a family gathering. ##### Kimberly A.

It's a treat to watch the ocean and the sunset from the top level of the house or from the porch. The house is clean and in good condition, with beautiful kitchen and good furnishings. The towel folding art was impressive. As minor suggestions for improvement, having the windows washed would improve the enjoyment of the view, and including a starter amount of shampoo and cooking oil would save a 30m drive to Safeway for people who didn't read the welcome emails closely enough or forgot to pack them. ##### Emil P.
