Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This two story home is wonderfully situated on Aptos Creek just steps away from the beach. We stayed there with our daughter her husband and our four active grandsons. The house is clean, fun, and nicely furnished in a very comfortable beach theme. The pool table upstairs was a big hit with the boys and this granny. Grandpa had fun simmering in the hot tub with his progeny and telling his grandpa stories. The hot tub is nicely situated in the lovely enclosed entryway garden. The outdoor shower was a definite boon when our sandy troops returned from their beach adventures. So were the washer and drier in their little shed just out back. Sure helped keep the sand out of the house. The bedrooms are downstairs and the kitchen and living areas are upstairs with a fun view of the creek and Rio Del Mar with the beach off to the right. There are beach chairs and sand toys available on the porch in the garden as well. My only suggestion would be to add one or two bigger pots in the kitchen to feed a hungry hoard of boys like ours. We had a most wonderful time!🥰

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All of the proposed questions were favorable. We have rented this property for a number of years and appreciated the furniture upgrades and in prior years appliance upgrades. We felt that the one issue that needs to be addressed is the mattresses on the beds being very hard lacking any softness and are not comfortable, seamed worn out in all of the rooms. Otherwise as usual in the years before we enjoyed our stay.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is as described. We did have a problem with ants in the kitchen. We lost a lot of food. The full bed mattress was auful, it was hard and lumpy like an old futon. We did love the hot tub and it was used everyday but the price increased $500 from our last years stay.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love the location of the house. It is only a block from the ocean which we can see from the deck. It is a quiet neighborhood. The house is large enough to house adults who need some quiet and kids who need to make noise. It has two decks, one in front and one in back. Love the pool table and the hot tub!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We feel that the place is not being taken care of. A couple of the hinges on the cabinet doors in the kitchen are tearing out of the wall of the cabinet. The doors are off line and therefore are hard to open or close, it appears to me that the house is being pushed forward from the hill in the back. The furniture is quite old.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is an absolute treasure ! I’d like to leave a bad review so no one else will rent it and it will always be available to me. But that wouldn’t be fair - so I’m all fairness I have to say I love this rental. It was just perfect for my husband and I. Our adult kids visited two nights and otherwise we had it to ourselves. It’s such a perfect location and has so much space to work, relax, hot tub ,play and enjoy. We will definitely stay here again. It’s a Gem!
