The beach was the best part of this rental property. The inside is in rough shape. The indoor living room furniture is uncomfortable and there was mold in the shower. A bunch of the dishes we went to use were dirty when we got them out of the cabinets. The front and back decks of the house are in rough shape. The paint is peeling and big splinters sticking up in the back. For over 500 a night this place is in dire need up updates and I wouldn’t recommend anyone to stay here.

With the forecast of strong Aurora chances we headed north hoping to catch the northern lights. This would have been a great spot had the Canadian wildfire smoke not moved in. The stay was very comfortable and we had all we needed.

Fall getaway

We had a fantastic stay! The location was perfect, just a short distance from the beach and the nearby state park, which made it easy to enjoy the beautiful scenery and local spots. The home itself was cozy, peaceful, and ideal for relaxing during our downtime. The host was great with communication and made sure everything was smooth for our visit. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!
