We had a great stay in the wooden house. We had 8 people staying in the house, ranging in age from 11 to 80 and the house had everything we needed. We cooked a lot of meals and even baked cupcakes and made strawberry shortcake while we were there. The kitchen had everything we needed. We also enjoyed having multiple movie nights (one outside and one inside) with such awesome entertainment systems. The house is also equipped with a sweet ping pong table, fuse ball table and A TON of gear for a trip to the beach, which kept the fun going all the time.
You can watch the sunset from the kitchen table, but the upper deck gives a much better view. The walk to town along the Coast Walk is beautiful and having both the beach and town so close was super convenient. We were also surprised at how quickly we could drive to the heart of downtown (15 min).
The only thing that kept us from giving the wood house a full 5 stars is there was more road noise than we were expecting. The house sits on a pretty major road that has a steady stream of traffic and the hum of traffic can be heard in varying levels throughout the house and yard. David has done his best to provide white noise machines and AC throughout the house so you don’t have to open windows. I should also say there is a ton of privacy and I was always able to turn either direction onto the busy street. So the proximity to the road isn’t a deal breaker, but it is something you should know about.
All told, David was great and we had a fantastic stay in the wood house.
