Thanksgiving get away

My spouse, my mother and my adult daughter thoroughly enjoyed this house and the location. We cooked in most meals due to food allergies and found the kitchen well stocked with high end appliances and utensils. We toured a fre wineries, shopped in Picton and walked the beaches and dunes. Fantastic holiday get away!

Perfect getaway in PEC

The house is a treat with multiple corners around the house for everyone to enjoy (from kids to adults). The place is tastefully decorated and has all the modern comforts with the old world charm. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. Highly recommend for a large family or friends vacation..

Great location , high expectations

Beautiful house and all amenities you need. Host responds quickly Prices have doubled since last year, so expectations are high. Not a fan of being instructed to clean when we are being charged a cleaning fee. Especially when we did not find it sparkling when we came in, floors were dirty in kitchen and stove had leftover cheese melted inside , minor, but all about value . Other than that, a great find.
