About this house rental

DISCLAIMER ON PAYMENT REQUIREMENTS: Wells and Bennett Realtors (Property Manager) requires $500 of your reservation total due upon booking (this is separate from the VRBO Service Fee that is also charged immediately) and the remainder is due sixty days prior to check-in. We also require Vacation Rental Accidental Damage Insurance for your reservation. There are two options to satisfy this requirement. You can purchase a policy through us and it costs an additional $55 total. The alternative option is that you can opt in for a refundable security deposit of $3,000. If you opt in for the security deposit, we will hold that on your card on file two weeks prior to check-in and then will return it as quickly as we can. Thank you for understanding.

Great location and plenty of space for two families!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Sep 2025
very nice cabin with a good area being close to King Beach and 7 minutes from Safeway, the only thing is that the facilities like the laundry room you have to go through a room to get to the laundry when it should be outside easily accessible. Also the bathroom downstairs although it is shared with 2 rooms is inside them. The main room was large, spacious and clean. I liked it a lot. What I didn't like was that to get to it we have to go through a room first and sometimes out of shame we had to wait for those in the room to wake up before we could go out, although I'm not complaining that the room has a large and very nice bathroom. The locations were somewhat strange if we talk about the rooms but everything was very nice and accessible with good Internet. We were able to use the TV without problems and they had many things accessible. Really highly recommended. We hope to return

Went for a family vacation. There were 12 of us and we had plenty of room. The location is great as you can walk to the beach. Also, Casinos are a short drive away
