Aurora House, Orcas Island, misleading
Their website used to have a misleading picture, not taken from the property, that gave you the impression that you were next door to a beach and that it was " . . easy to launch kayaks from . . ." This was the primary reason we rented the house. We complained that both the picture and the discription were misleading. The owners have said they did nothing wrong and refused us a reasonable partial refund. They have since dropped the picture and discription. The house is fine but the owners were uncooperative.
