Beautiful Home in a Great Location
We really enjoyed our stay at the Little Bay Retreat. This smaller house can accommodate a good number of people, and it was very clean upon arrival. It's a few blocks north of the shops of the downtown area. The two TV's provide a variety of streaming services. My only recommendation would be to offer local cable TV.

Golf, Wine, Friends
Amazing location to walk downtown for great shopping and delicious food. The golf courses showcased some amazing fall color already and the wineries were top notch. Our favorite winery was Maple Moon. We will definitely stay here again. This home had so much personality and space.

Excellent home and location
This home was perfect for our family of 5 for nearly a week. The home is newly redone (fresh paint, carpet, floors) and was beautifully done. There was plenty of space for us to relax and not be on top of each other. Beds were comfortable and the house was clean. Kitchen has everything we needed to cook a couple of meals. Location could not be better - you can walk into town and to the waterfront in just a couple of minutes. The owner was responsive and friendly. We would definitely stay again!

Dusty musty- disappointing
Received code for front door in the morning on day of reservation. Host gave ideas for unloading of luggage, however, difficult to park car on driveway and get out safely with dangerous 5 foot drop off out the driver side door. Picked up and appeared vacuumed, but terribly dusty baseboards and dusty old carpeting. Kitchen floor sticky. In general, it was not clean as some reviews had stated it was. No window covering in one bedroom window. No screen on one window so difficult to get fresh air. Questionable GFI outlet in bathroom. BEWARE for those who have dust allergies -I was sneezing and ill entire time while in the building. JACK and Jill bathroom on second floor. Steep steps for our 83 year old guest. Plenty of coffee and location was close to downtown eating and shops. Bed linens were soft and comfortable. We basically felt would could hack it for a few days, but we were extremely disappointed and spent as little time as possible in the building.
