The location is very unique, tranquil, and quiet. It’s a great setting for a family gathering. The property has been nicely updated in some unique ways, and was very comfortable and cozy. The communication with the owner was quick and courteous. The back deck is a real treat and so is the fireplace! The layout works out well because it has basically two master suites with the living area in between which made for quiet bedroom spaces . The home is close to everything and only a short drive to some nicer attractions in the bay area. It’s a great launching pad for some family outings. ##### Maureen S.

Fantastic deck that’s partially covered which worked out great since it rained much of the time. It was lovely to see the boats and birds go by on the canal. Comfortable beds, well appointed kitchen and loved the vibe. Garage parking was a plus, too. Super close to shopping at Whole Foods and Trader Joes. I will say that the bathrooms and some of the fixtures could use updating. But overall it was a fabulous stay and I’d 100% book again. Thank you! ##### Christina C. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### Laura T. Jul 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Misrepresented access to harbor and privac There are a lot of wonderful things about this house and location but the owners have misrepresented access to the harbor. The photos in the listing are not taken from the deck but rather from a different location near the home. Rather than a serene, private getaway with access to the harbor, we had a family of 5 stationed on their boat right off our deck about 20 feet away for 2 of our 3 day stay. We had no privacy at all and no access to the dock, because there was no space for us or our paddleboards. We couldn't have a private conversation on the deck while being bombarded by sounds of this family's activities, which felt like was in our living room. The owners stated it is not their harbor so cannot control who uses it or when. They did discount me $200\. In addition, the hosts have a padlock on the gate to the dock and require that anyone who is staying at or visiting the home fill out a liability waiver and send their ID. This was very difficult to complete for our group, which was made up of different family members arriving at different times from multiple locations including several who were injured and not planning on using the dock at all. I had to spend several hours on the phone negotiating this requirement with the owners and ultimately did not receive the code to the lock until after the sun went down and we had been unable to use the dock. This was so disappointing for some members of our group that they ended up going home. I wouldn't recommend staying here. ##### Laura T. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie C.
