"Beautiful home/location…was exactly as advertised and accommodating for a family of 9. Great location - extremely close to the beach, which was definitely a plus. Clean, spacious, and comfortable with an amazing view of the water. Very enjoyable stay. Highly recommended property. Thanks, Justin!"

The Sheridan Duo | 11BR + Sauna + 2 Hot Tubs

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for our annual multi-generational family get together, including our retired Red Cross pup. The pair of houses worked out great as we have primarily adults and king/queen bedrooms and many bathrooms are a priority. House was as advertised but the property was a bit tired. Note: the BBQ grills are CHARCOAL and not propane. Not a big issue as we noticed before trying to grill out. Location was great - walking distance to the beach and easy access to venture north along the shoreline. Parking on site was great as street parking was challenging, primarily on weekends when adjacent properties were occupied. Host was very responsive once we were able to figure out how to contact them outside of the platform. The front porch on the northern house was great for hanging out - lots of space and the ceiling fans made for a nice environment. Overall a great time was had by all."
