This property is as advertised. The host communicated with us constantly. The property was clean and well-stocked. The washer and dryer being available was a godsend. It is centrally located - an easy walk to the beach or to any restaurant or bar you want to go to in OB. I would stay there again!

This was a solid place to stay -- everything you need and very close to the ocean. The location is also very walkable -- no need to get in your car to go to the grocery or to a restaurant. We enjoyed it very much!

The property is close to the beach for morning and evening walks. The property is clean. The neighborhood is quite in the evening. Host provided snacks and a bottle of wine that was enjoyed on the patio. Great place close to everything. We only had to put 3 gallons of fuel in our rental car after a 6 day trip, and we were there for a wedding.

Great location, great hosts. Deck is fantastic for coffee in the morning and beverages in the evenings. Parking a little hit and miss, doesn't really matter if you do the OB thing and walk everywhere. I highly recommend!

Perfect stay

We loved this vacation, it had everything we needed. Our flight was coming in around noon in California and we hadn’t rented a car, but the owners arranged to have the cleaners come earlier so we could at least store our bags there - they were very accommodating and nice. The location and area were perfect - we had a great time!
