Great location, minutes walk from Chesterman beach. We’ll set up, clean, perfect for families with pets. Backyard was great with fire pit and hot tub. If you need to split fire wood, you’ll need to bring you own hatchet.

Perfect getaway for a family of 4 with two teens

The house is perfect with a big fully stocked kitchen (cooking gear), three bedrooms and living area. Especially nice was the outdoor shower to keep the place clean after the beach and prior to the hot tub. the cost is relatively high but in line with other accommodations and from that perspective a good value. Equally nice was that it is dog friendly which saved the cost of boarding. We'll be back!

Lovely relaxing getaway

We had a great stay for 4 days. The home is like a 2 minute walk to the beach which is amazing. They were kind enough to send us some firewood and the home also had many little hidden touches that most other rentals wouldn’t have. The main bedroom mattress could use a bit of flipping and/or fluffing as it’s a bit ‘dippy’ but that’s probably my only negetive comment. Great stay and we would come back for sure.

We expected more

This VRBO was ok. I’m very surprised at the amount of money this cost, to the poor maintenance of the property. I’m going to summarize my review into a plusses and minuses. Plus: - The kitchen was well stocked and had everything needed for 4 people. - The distance to Chesterman beach was a plus. Short walk, and interesting. - Bathroom Essentials were well stocked. - Enjoyed the two complimentary beers provided. - The beds, pillows and blankets were comfortable and well received. - It’s nice to have a hot tub in the back yard. - Internet worked well. Minus: - Kitchen faucet tap was broken and popped off immediately after use. - The provided bluetooth speakers were completely dead, and would not recharge. This is a common problem as per the internet, and was frustrating. - The bathroom door does not lock. - The rear door to the backyard would not stay closed without locking it. - For the amount that we paid, I would expect fully stocked wood in the backyard for fires. It’s frustrating to have to go buy $17 overpriced wood at CO-OP when the owner can spend $150 for a cord that lasts the summer. - No “Pokey Stick” for the fire. - The hot tub lid was broken and waterlogged. This owner has a whole list of rules regarding the hot tub, but because the lid was in such poor maintenance. They don’t seem to care at all. - Poor shower-head in the bathroom. Overall. This should have been better.
