Good to know

Wave Haven is a newly built single-family home that sleeps 10 guests and contains all hardwood floors. The main level contains a front room with a workstation and a comfortable pull-out (Queen) couch. The half bath can also serve guests staying on the main level. The living area has a breakfast nook that seats two, a dining table that seats six, and a counter that seats three. The living room contains a TV, gas fireplace, couch, swivel chair, and leather recliner, perfect for a nap or glass of wine. The area also contains a bar cart with wheels, which can double as a serving area. The kitchen serves as your home-away-from-home with modern appliances and all of the amenities of your kitchen. The double-stack cabinets and pantry provide ample space for your food and beverages of choice! The upper level contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms.

The two additional bedrooms each contain a TV and a bunk bed, which sleeps three—two twins and one full. The bunk beds also contain drawers in the stairs, so storage won’t be an issue.

We offer a family-friendly environment, and we are mindful of those with allergies. As such, there is no smoking, and pets are not allowed. For those visiting with children, we provide a pack-and-play, Bumbo seater, high chair, corner protectors for the living room furniture, outlet protectors, and life vests.

Wonderful new home, extremely clean and a great location. The host was extremely responsive - very detail oriented and all over it throughout the experience. Provides detailed directions and labels everything throughout the home to make it easy for the guests. Clearly takes excellent care of his home and has pride in his house and your experience. I don’t think there is a more responsive and detail oriented host on Airbnb.

The house is beautiful and very well stocked with all the essentials you could imagine to make your stay have the conveniences of home! Having access to a double car garage to store bikes etc was wonderful! The hosts were very communicative and hospitable. We plan to return and next time we will stay longer!
