Location made up for very poor maintenance
Overall, we made lemonade from the lemons. The location, nest AC, and basics of having a clean place to sleep and a working TV were nice. Unfortunately, there were numerous problems with the property not the least of which was a broken fridge/freezer, a downstairs window AC unit that made it hard to sleep, poor circulation in downstairs bedrooms, broken fans in 3rd bedroom, broken tv in 2nd bedroom, broken sink drain in 1st bedroom. Additionally, the manager didn’t tell us about the fridge being broken until the day we arrived and left a dirty cooler to use instead. We made due by putting ice in the fridge to keep a few things cold and eating out which was not cost effective. There were other minor issues as well such as roaring motorcycles all night in parking lot behind living room, wet laundry left in dryer and broken pull out couch. Overall, location was great but for the money we spent, would have much preferred a better managed place.

Solid Avalon spot
We loved our stay here. Checking in was a challenge but the owner was very responsive and it appeared VRBO didn’t send all the instructions. The place itself was awesome. So convenient to Avalon and the grocery store. The place is exactly what we were after. Would stay again!

Great Stay in Avalon
This home is perfect for anyone visiting Avalon for either a quick getaway or a longer stay. The location is 5 minutes from the waterfront and having the Von's directly across the street is super convenient. The home was clean, well-organized, and very comfortable for our group of 7 people. Avalon is a fantastic spot and we will be back.

Vacation
The house was in the perfect place, close to the beach and business district. We had small children and adults together in the house which caused a bit of noise issues from walking around upstairs and the sleeping downstairs. Overall it was wonderful

Great location. Across the street from a grocery store and a short walk to the beach.
We overpacked as everything we needed was already there. 😊 We loved the grocery store being just across the street, and it’s just a short walk to the beach.

Very relaxing stay in a convenient location to downtown Avalon
This property was excellent, spacious, and just the relaxation we needed. Close enough to the city that the kids could go into town when they wanted. Kitchen was well stocked and we cooked most of our meals since Vons is so convenient. The property owner was responsive and very helpful. Overall a lovely place to stay.

Great Location, difficult check-in process
We loved the location, close to everything with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable family room. Upon arrival, the entrance code could not be activated which was problematic as we couldn't leave our bags as we were told we could. It would have been helpful to have written instructions in the unit with the wifi, and other basic information, which was not provided. The house was very cold during evenings/nights, with no apparent heating (only air con) -- ideal for summer but not fall/winter.

Things you might want to know.
I don’t often do reviews but I really felt like there’s some things that I would wanna know before I stayed in this house again. I traveled with my husband, my 72 year old mother and my 16-year-old daughter. At first sight this house is cute and exactly across the street from Vons supermarket. That did make it convenient to get groceries however there was no wagon or a way to transport the items from the grocery store other than carry it. We stayed for 5 days so we had a lot of groceries to get over however what I did find out is that you can push the shopping cart over from bonds without it locking the wheels and should be able to unload on your porch. This house when we booked it said it had a golf cart which was one of the main reasons we decided to go with this one and not stay in a hotel however we were notified about a month and a half after we upped it that it was down for maintenance and ideally it would be hopefully repaired when we got there which it wasn’t. This made it very difficult to get my mother around because in order for her to walk down to the main street it’s a solid 3 to 4 blocks Away so we had to rent a wheelchair every day to be able to move her around.

Perfect large upstairs kitchen, dining & living room area for the whole family to gather for meals & games. It's located right across the street from the grocery store which makes bringing all the groceries needed for a large group or last minute items very easy. Lance was very good at communicating with us & the home had everything that we need. We will definitely be back.

birthday weekend getaway
There were 8 adults. It was very comfortable. My wife and I slept on one of the upstairs hide-a-bed couches for four nights. It was surprisingly comfortable. I would describe it as very firm; like a futon mattress. This was our third trip to Avalon. The location of this home is hard to beat.

About the host

Host profile image
Lifelong boater and visitor to the Island. It's always been a dream to own a little piece of "heaven" so close to the mainland. Having traveled to world, there's something amazing about Avalon, Two Harbors and the whole "vibe". I still love the Caribbean and the rest of the world, but Avalon is a wonderful home away from home. Working on my semi-retirement, and a home port to call my own somewhere in the Atlantic.
