Quick trip to the coast

We took a quick trip to the coast to see our son and his family for Christmas. The house was great. Tons of room dog friendly, and huge backyard. I wish the gates were on the fence but other than that the place was perfect!

Fantastic Renovated Four Square Home!

This house was lovely with plenty of space and it was well appointed with a full kitchen, games, and the amazing grand piano which we greatly enjoyed. There was plenty of space and the bedrooms were all beautiful. Highly recommend!

Ingleside Gem

This home was in a great location, had plenty of space, stayed very cool during the summer heat, and the property owner was very responsive to our needs! There is a coziness from the age and some of the original character of the home. We would come back and stay again for sure!

Nice area lovely owner

We used the house for a couples retreat and comic con adventure. It was far enough from the convention that traffic wasn’t affected but close enough we didn’t feel rushed. Plenty of room and a beautiful kitchen.
