This house was definitely one to stay at. It was very roomy and had everything you could ever need from bathroom items to kitchen items. It was perfect. My family could not say enough about it. The owner was very pleasant and very quick to respond. We will definitely be staying here again if need be!

Location

Very clean and cannot beat the location! 2 blocks to beach and 2 blocks to downtown shopping, restaurants and ice cream! Check in was done before we arrived and were able to get right into property. Kitchen had everything we needed and then some. Plenty of supplies in both kitchen and bathrooms. Truly was zero need to bring the extras! My son forgot his toothbrush but when we arrived this property had wrapped new toothbrushes with toothpaste in the bathrooms waiting! Little things like this is what made this stay great! Property manager was very responsive. A/C went out second night and it was a little hot but the very next morning before 7:30 we had 3 window units going they had brought in until an HVAC company could get there. House was cooled down quickly. Very nice property and might not be on the water but really can’t beat the location!

Perfect for an up north get away

This property was in a great location. Close to shopping and close to the local beaches. The extra amenities added to the house (snacks, shampoos/conditioners, items you may have forgotten) was just perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay.

We will be back!

What a great place to stay. 2 coworkers and I stayed there for business. What a great location. We felt safe and secure. This location had two tables for us to work and eat from. I had Great communication with Ida. quick to respond and so friendly. I have never been to a Verbo that had so many staples at the house for you including all the different appliances, Coffee, creamer, seasonings, snacks, trash bags, I could go on for 30 minutes about all the extras. What a great location and convenient to downtown. Walking distance to everything. (during our stay was cold outside so we did not walk but would have if it was warmer) We will be back to stay again. Thank you, Ida, for making our stay comfortable.

weekend getaway

We had an amazing weekend getaway at a house that allowed us to spend quality time together, playing games, visiting, relaxing, and enjoying each other's company. The location was ideal, as we could easily walk downtown to join in the festivities. The owners of the house were fantastic to work with, and we're already looking forward to booking our stay again next year.
