We stayed here for Easter weekend with our extended family and rented both the upstairs and downstairs. The set up is ideal - we had parents and 4 adult children upstairs, and parents and 3 adult children downstairs. Each family brought their dog. Having separate living areas was perfect for space - and each one is big enough to have meals together. We hosted dinner one night and they hosted breakfast another. The rooms are spacious, kitchen nicely equipped, everything worked (appliances, lights, fans). The house was clean and decorated nicely, giving a very comfortable, homey feel.
We were only 2 blocks from the beach, which was awesome for morning walks. The decks were so much fun to hang out on, with room enough for all 11 of us.
Steve, the owner, was extremely responsive to any questions I had. He also was very clear on directions (how to set the temp, where to take trash).
Overall we loved our stay here and would absolutely recommend it!!
