our family had a wonderful christmas holiday at abalone point. the house worked perfectly for 8 adults. we loved being all together in the open living and dining areas, with comfortable seating and great views of the pacific. we enjoyed cooking in the large, well-appointed open kitchen. also appreciated the separate bedroom spaces and the three propane fireplaces, outdoor decks and hot tub. the location was great - took many walks on trails and enjoyed seeing all the wildlife. the house was very clean and well-organized, and we appreciated the host’s most helpful and timely communications. we would definitely return again.
