GPS took us to the wrong location, but I reached out and received a response right away and located it. The home is very rustic and unique.

Beautiful home! I don’t think the reviews really showcase how beautiful this home is. These is so much history in this home. Our family wished there was somewhere we could have read when the home was built sharing history up to where the family is now… The home has every dish in the kitchen you could think of and we really got a kick with there being a sink in every bedroom.. talk about history.. We would come here again… only thing we wish we could have changed, is us being able to stay longer. Fit a family of 7 very comfortably.

Gorgeous, old coastal house. I arrived to use the main floor toilet that resulted in an unresolved toilet/sewage leak for our ENTIRE stay: sewage IN kitchen + doorway to ocean view deck + firewood. I mopped sewage for the entire stay. I replaced bloody bedding in primary bedroom: a large blood stain on top bedspread that seeped through 2 layers of bedding. Host’s assigned house crew were on-site 2 times, saw all of this yet offered no help, no sewage clean-up, no bloody bedding clean-up. Add insult to injury: within 4+hrs after check out, I reported my 2 bags left in prominent view on kitchen butcher block table. I asked to pay for iTrip’s time & postage to return it to me -- or I would physically recoup them the next day (2-hr drive). Their crew did not report my bags as found - bags that held my valued belongings plus nice food & wine. Avoid this rental to avoid wasted money, wasted energy and undo angst.
