Please note we have 2 cameras on the exterior of the home for security purposes. One at the front of the home and one in the backyard. There is also a decibel monitoring device located in the home. This is a smart device that measures decibel levels on the property and allows us to respond to extremely loud and sustained volumes. It does not record conversation, it only measures decibel levels. This helps us to avoid unauthorized parties. Our goal is for our guests and neighbors to both have an enjoyable experience!

Overall, the stay was great. The house was beautifully decorated, clean, and the linens were nice and clean as well. The only things we could have complained about were the fans in the bedrooms. The room with the queen bed and bunk beds didn't work, and the fan in the master bedroom made a loud clicking sound when it was running. I would book this house again, other than the fans, it was a great trip, and a very nice neighborhood. I would recommend it if you need a place in Portsmouth
My family of 5 had a nice stay at this VRBO and would recommend it to others. The house was clean and cared for, which made it easy to settle in and feel comfortable right away.It was thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed, including plenty of bath towels, soft linens, extra blankets, and plenty of pillows. The beds were comfortable, and we appreciated the little conveniences like shampoo, conditioner, and a hair dryer. The kitchen was well-equipped with dishes and silverware, and the 7-person dining table made it easy for everyone to gather together.Having access to a washer and dryer, along with detergent and dryer sheets, was especially helpful during our stay. We also enjoyed relaxing outside—the chairs on the dock were a nice touch.The neighborhood felt safe, and it was convenient to have a grocery store just a short 10-minute drive away.The only small downside was that the water near the dock seemed a bit too shallow for fishing, which may matter if that’s something you’re hoping to do.Overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and we would happily return.
