-2 bedrooms
-2 full bathrooms
-High ceilings
-3 queen-sized beds

Due to cold weather and constant rain we stayed inside the condo more than planned. We found the furniture in the living area very uncomfortable and less than adequate for four adults. The TV was mounted so high we had to crane our necks to watch it. We were asked not to move any furniture so all four of us couldn’t watch the TV at the same time.The bedrooms and baths were lovely and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped and the welcome bag was much appreciated.

We had a lovely stay at this condo! It was sparkling clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The gifted bottle of wine and snacks were lovely and greatly appreciated! Our only hiccup is that the wi-fi was not cooperating so no TVs would work. Our cell phones and tablets connected one day and then not the following again. Hosts were very communicative about the issues but it was not fully resolved before our weekend was over. I’m sure this was an isolated incident and do recommend staying at this great property!!

Great location to both beaches/lighthouses and walking distance to downtown SH. The condo was tastefully decorated with a lake theme. Beds were very comfortable! Nice furniture and kitchen area had ample seating around the bar and table for the four of us. We will definitely book again. Stephanie provided info for condo and surrounding cities. Only hiccup was the condo door keypad didn’t work (likely low battery),but access to keys so no issue. Parking was very close to the building. Thanks for the nice stay!

Great location and nice open living/dining/kitchen area. Kitchen was generously provisioned and host was very responsive. Only a couple of less than ideal issues: the property lists 3 queen beds to sleep 6, but the beds are full size not measuring as the standard queen, making sleeping 6 people uncomfortable; the living room furniture is stylish and matches the seafaring decor, but not at all comfortable and insufficient for 6 people to sit or lounge. I still highly recommend for groups of 2-4 as you can walk to nearly everything and sitting on the shared deck and watching the boats in the harbor is lovely. The boat bunk was a real hit with the kids for lounging.
Boat bunk in primary bedroom.

Excellent location

The property was very nice and in an excellent location. The Property Manager was very responsive through the process. We also really enjoyed the deck to watch the boats come and go. One item that should be addressed is the charcoal grill which was mentioned in the location description. The one that was available is very tiny and should be upgraded for sure.

Place was modern and clean. Close walking distance to nearly everything youd want. The only thing that could have been improved was to add black out curtains in the bedrooms. You are downtown and close to everything. We would stay here again.
