We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It met or exceeded our expectations . It was clean and had all the comforts. The view from the deck is wonderful and the hot tub is a bonus.As far as location its close to amenities and prime sightseeing locations.Would definately stay again.
This rental was everything we hoped for. The location was perfect, amazing views and very confortable. The spa was great and we could swim for the deck.
Exactly as described. Very friendly and accommodating hosts, great location, beautiful view, nice yard (Oceanside) and shopping nearby. Highly recommended.
Beautiful views of St. Margaret's Bay, with private outdoor terrace, in a quiet, wooded neighborhood. The apartment was well-furnished and equipped for two people, convenient to nearby stores, coffee shops and seaside attractions. Helpful live-in hosts and clear directions made the stay easy.

Quiet and clean. Great views and well maintained. Rug in living room is curling up and should be replaced as it can be a tripping hazard.
The property is beautiful and in an amazing location! Relaxing in the hot tub overlooking the ocean after a long day on the go was perfect. The house is very nicely done and very clean.
The property owners were very nice and helpful. I highly recommend this property and would not hesitate to stay there again on a future trip.

Chris has a beautiful place just outside of Tantallon! Both the sofa bed and bedroom could use new mattress as well as blinds for the living room windows but other than that our stay was fantastic. The view of the bay was spectacular, it was nice to soak in the hot tub each night.
Modern and nicely decorated suite with lovely deck, bbq, hammock and hot tub. Overlooking a dock in a quiet cove. Missed having laundry facilities. Really pleased with our stay.
Wonderful area for biking, hiking and water sports. Great apartment right on water with a beautiful patio. Highly recommended. Stunning area, so beautiful.
This rental provides a private, well located place for a short term visit. Access to the unit is by stairs to the back of the main house located on a hill with a lovely water view. The kitchen facilities are somewhat limited but adequate, especially for those out sightseeing most of the time. Aside from noise from those living upstairs over the unit, it is a very comfortable place to stay.
We really enjoyed our week, so peaceful and relaxing. View is amazing and especially liked the covered seating area on the deck, great for sitting out anytime of the day. Unit is very bright, clean and had everything we needed. Hosts are very friendly and accommodating, responding very quickly to any questions we had. Hoping to have a return stay!
Beautiful& private with large outdoor area overlooking Margaret’s Bay - paradise.
Watching the tide rise & fall - complete with blue herons & the family dog Macey - simplely wonderful - thank u Chris & Stephanie
The owners were great, if we had any issues they were quick to deal with it. Loved their friendly dog. Great location. Kayaks and hot tub was a bonus. Our only concern was owners live right above the rental and it was a bit loud at times.
We had a great stay at Chris and Stephanie’s VRBO on the water. The one bedroom suite had everything that we were looking for. It was clean, modern and private. It’s proximity to local towns, amenities, recreation and to Peggie’s Cove were great. Thanks Chris and Stephanie! We look forward to our next stay with you and the local blue heron!

The location was just perfect. The view, the hot tub, the kayak, the fire and the host = incredible. In top of all this, our daughter found a good friend in Macy. Thanks for everything Chris and Stephanie.
