Wonderful retreat
It is a beautiful, well maintained, thoughtfully updated home. Had everything we could possibly need and the furniture and beds were all high end and comfortable. Slept like a baby the whole trip.
The views are incredible and the kids and grownups all loved calling out BIG SHIP! every time a BIG SHIP! came past. The neighborhood was quiet and welcoming and there are nearby restaurants and grocery stores, but not at all a bustling feel. It’s an awesome place. Easy to find and prompt, friendly, efficient communication from the host! We will return.

Priceless River View
A wonderful time. Hosts checked in making sure we had everything we needed, very conscientious. Home is beautiful inside with everything necessary to enjoy your stay. We were able to dock our boat in entrance located within walking distance few houses away. Marine Ap helped us track all barge traffic coming and going so we didn’t miss anything. Also fantastic views of cruise lines and yacht traffic. Town and places to eat less than 10 minutes away. At night wonderful location for a late night fire with smores watching the boat traffic, and lights on Bay Bridge overhead. Won’t be disappointed.
