  William W from SAN JOSE, California recommends this vacation rental

  This is the 2nd time booking this location. After the 2023 trip I asked my family if they wanted to rebook or try something new, and unanimously they said rebook.
  
  Location is key. The property is as represented in the pics and posting. Its comfortable and we had many a meal for 10 and multiple game nights.
  
  The kitchen is well equipped. I did bring a drink cooler the 2nd year as the fridge isn't large. Every kitchen doodad and doohicky is there for whipping up a meal.
  
  Did I mention the beach? Its right there.
  
  Will definitely book again!

  The house was very comfortable for kids and adults. The short walk to the beach was great for all. We’re scheduled for the same time slot next year.

  a guest from Placerville, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Our family of 10 ranging from 6-65 rented the house for a long weekend. The house was perfect for us with enough bedrooms and living space to give us room to spread out but also gather for games and meals. The house was well equipped with everything we needed. The best part was the deck annd the view of the ocean. Would highly recommend.

  Susan M from Aptos, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great family vacation. This was our second year at this house, and we have put in our reservation for next year.
  The location is perfect with plenty of room for all of us.
  There are a few items that need to be upgraded. A LED strip should be installed around the uneven steps at the top of the stairs to avoid anyone tripping at night. The light switch midway on the rail is not in a good location. The lighting in the dining, sitting and TV area quite dim. The overhead fixtures need to be cleaned and brighter bulbs installed. For safety reasons, there should be an outside light to illuminate the back steps and the edge of the patio to avoid someone stepping off the deck since there is no railing.

  Linda G from Seal Beach, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We were more than pleased with the property. I was concerned that this 140 years house would be cold & drafty, but it was quite comfortable. We did not need to use the heater at all. It has a nice TV, but we enjoyed the view so much we never watched TV at all. The beds & pillows were clean & comfortable; we all slept well. The showers were good; with 6 people taking showers we had plenty of hot water. The was a fairly new washer & dryer. This house has many picture depicting the history of this old, but charming house. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay there again.

  We have been staying at this property every year for several years and it is perfect for a large family gathering. We love sitting on the deck and watching the sun go down, the short walk to the beach, and the well stocked kitchen. It's a cozy home with great views!

  Location was good. Great view of beach and lagoon. Easy access to the beach. High trafficked area. Car noise. House worked ok, although we could have used another bathroom. For a house so close to beach, beach chairs and towels should be provided. The clothing dryer did not work properly. Needed to run it for a long while to get the clothing to dry. We had to request kitchen towels as there were only 2 provided for a weeks stay for 10 people. We were given an additional 2 which was inadequate. The deck and outside area was great and we enjoyed sitting on the spacious deck.
