Great place

We loved this house! It was exactly as showed on the photos. Beautiful ocean views from every room, clean and the perfect size for 2 adults and 2 kids. In the woods but close to supermarket and beach acres. You can’t walk to the beach but it’s like a 5 min drive. House is well equipped and Wi-Fi works great. My only wish that check out would be at 11 am not 20 am. We had a lot of fun and planning to return here. Everything was really perfect!

Beautiful location & great service!

We truly enjoyed our stay at High Tor Upper house. It was beautifully done and better than expected. Spacious and comfortable with full size kitchen. Spectacular views of ocean. I contacted customer service 3x in advance to ask questions about property, each time they responded quickly and courteous. While listing on some sites ommited coffe maker, they had 2 - a standard drip and coffee press. Full amenities! Only thing missing was grill, but with fire season becoming so serious here in CA, it was understandable and we had no problem with not having grill. We will definitely book another trip here!

Nice ocean view

Great for family vacation. Rooms and kitchen were clean and loved the overall layout. There were minor spider webs on the lightings and outside the property that might need some attention. Master bedrooms heater was showing e3 error that got resolved aftera power on off try. It gets cold after sunset and the room heaters near the floors as well as the heater vent under kitchen basin was good to have. One thing to note was that the master bedroom's roof skylight blind do not block light well ..hence we became a very early riser by sunrise. Otherwise a very pleasant stay overall .. Recommended!

Problems

Unfortunately, we encountered numerous problems with this property. It began with a call about checking in and could never get through to a living soul. Once we were in we discovered that two TV's., including the main one, were not in working order. Someone came to fix it the next day but the following day it was on the blink again. We could not use the jetted bath tub because the drain would not close and the rubber stopper left to put over the broken drain also did not due the job as it would just float away. The tub was very slippery for showering purposes and with no safety bar which was quite dangerous. There is no Verizon cell service and no land line which is a safety issue. I can say that other than a few dishes, everything was very clean. However, the knives were uselessly dull and there was nothing provided to sharpen them with. I can also say that it was quiet with a nice ocean view. Sadly, because of all the problems, we ended up leaving two days early.

Great Views

Very clean, great location to many beaches and activities. Had some issues with drain in bathroom sinks and finding various heaters. Would have been helpful to point that out and have information on what things are located in the house. Other than that we truly enjoyed ourselves and very nice stay. We were able to meet the owner and super nice guy and wanted us to share. Even sent over a guy the first night to check on heater in master bedroom. The fan kept shutting off and would only run for a few minutes and shut off again. It does need to be fixed, but was no problem, so no complaints on that. We adjusted and just left door open and everything was fine. A lot of upgrades to the property are being done, so on a return trip, will be interesting to watch the changes. Thanks for a wonderful stay and no complaints and would stay there again and will recommend staying there to those who plan on trips to the area. Excellent place at a reasonable price. Feel free to cut a paste the good comments, the other comments are for the owner to fix. :)

Sweet little home

Very sweet house. Everything clean and up to date. Location is very beautiful, with ocean view. If you want peace and quiet, this is the place. One thing worth mentioning to Srs. The shower is a little tricky to maneuver, as you have to step over side of bathtub to get into shower. Otherwise, this is a very accommodating house. Enjoyed our stay very much.
