The location was nice, building was ok, pool area wasn’t great. The price was expensive for what you got! I don’t think I’d stay again!

We were impressed with so many things about this rental…first, the absolute cleanliness of the property! It was immaculate and well-stocked for any situation. We had five adults in our family group and there was room enough and privacy for everyone. We were so pleased and delighted. The owners were so friendly and accommodating, responding to every question promptly. We will definitely consider this place again when we are in town.

Great location and amenities
We wanted a place that offers walking distance to many attractions, has a pool, and provides both separate and social spaces for our family, ranging in age from 16 to 78. This met all our wishes. We made extensive use of the well-appointed kitchen.

The property was excellent. Clean with great amenities. But the surrounding shops and places to eat were great. The first night we did Red Lobster. One of our favorite places to eat. We also enjoyed Caribou half a block away. We will do it again with our granddaughters next time. Thank you.
