Great house

Loved the house and neighborhood. Balboa and Newport were so pretty & we loved walking and shopping. Rogers Gardens was a highlight. In front master bedroom a light was out and the bathroom faucet was loose. Thanks

Lovely Family Stay

This is our second time staying at this property and our first renting through Vrbo. We love this home, the location is amazing, can’t be beat. So close to the ferry which we took every day. The delicious Mexican restaurant/coffee shop nearby is such a treat. The walk to the main Baboa Island strip was lovely along the boardwalk. The place was clean and had such great flexibility with many rooms which our family loved. I noticed a few positive upgrades compared to our last visit including renewed carpet in the upstairs loft and spiral staircase to the roof which was much more family friendly! We would certainly stay again.
