Very clean, well designed, well organized house. Well appointed, nice to be in. Close to Halibut Point State Park, which has great trails. Easy driving to everything.
Thank you so much for your kind review, Nicole! We’re glad you enjoyed the clean, well-appointed home and its convenient location near Halibut Point State Park. We’d love to welcome you back to Just For the Halibut!
The house itself and its location were fantastic—comfortable beds, fully functional appliances, and a truly delightful back deck. However, our check-in process was frustrating. Despite confirming a reservation modification through Airbnb 2.5 months in advance, Atlantic Vacation Homes never received the updated info, leaving us without an entry code after a long drive. I messaged via the app twice with no reply, but eventually reached Atlantic Vacation Homes’ after-hours line. After a 20-minute call, we were able to get inside. Consequently, the home wasn’t completely ready when we arrived. To their credit, Atlantic Vacation Homes sent someone out the next morning who brought the remaining kitchen items, apologized for the arrival mix-up, and worked hard to resolve an ant issue and an active wasp nest. We were offered the opportunity to move to another property, which we declined. While the property has great potential, the initial miscommunication made for a rocky start.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback and for your kind words about the home's comfort, appliances, and back deck.
We sincerely apologize for the rocky start to your trip. Our reservation software unfortunately failed to sync your updated arrival date into our system, which caused the delay with your entry code and pre-arrival prep. We have since resolved this software issue so it will not happen to future guests. We appreciate your patience while our after-hours team assisted you, and we're glad our maintenance team could address the supplies and pest concerns promptly the next morning.
We truly value your input and hope to host you again for a seamless stay from start to finish!
The place was really nice and felt even better than the pictures showed. Host was very detailed and added a lot of nice and helpful touches.
Thank you so much for your kind review Dylan, we're so glad you loved the property, we look forward to welcoming you back again!
Comfortable, clean home with plenty of room and a nice back deck.
Thank you so much for your review, Penelope! We're glad Just For the Halibut was comfortable, clean, and had plenty of room for you all. We hope to host you again soon.
Lovely stay
by CathyWe very much enjoyed our stay. House was beautifully renovated, well equipped & very clean! Great location between Halibut State Park for walks & the Lobsta Pool for the beautiful sunsets! We enjoyed the deer & rabbit that visited each day in the back yard. The only down side was needing more AC units since we were there during a heat wave, which Atlantic was kind enough to supply. Thank you again!
Thank you so much for your kind review, we hope to see you again!
Clean and Comfortable
