This property has everything you need. It is beautiful and clean, is well maintained and well appointed. We have stayed at this property 5 times and have never been disappointed. The property is secluded, yet close to nearly anything you might need. I really cannot say enough nice things about the property and Ashley and her husband.Looking forward to our next booking in 2027.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. The house was clean, well stocked, and the perfect size. We spent most of our time on the back screened in porch looking at and listening to the water. The private beach was wonderful and the water was so calm. The setting of the house made it a great place for morning walks, bike rides, and we were always seeing wildlife while we were out, which we enjoyed. The host was very easy to communicate with, which was very appreciated. We truly did enjoy our stay here and we fully intend to come back here again.

One of the most peaceful places that I have ever visited. Sitting on the screened porch watching the water and hearing nothing but the lap of the water and the birds singing was our favorite part of this property.

This place is just heaven. I love the way it’s decorated and it even smells amazing! You are close to the small surrounding town but what could be better than sitting on the enclosed porch eating a meal or just watching the ocean? We will definitely be back!

This place is beautiful. The views are amazing, especially if you get up and watch the sunrise over the water. It is perfect if you have kids that love to swim, as the water is very manageable even for our smallest child. My wife loved reading on the back porch while listening to the water. We spent plenty of time out on the back porch playing cards and having dinners. The beds are VERY comfortable. We would definitely recommend, and also book again in the future!! The hosts were very accommodating and answered our questions about the area very promptly.

This is the third time my family has stayed at this home and as always we enjoyed our time! Ashley is a fantastic host and has ensured that her home is cozy and has everything you need for a long weekend or week away. Our personal fave is how comfy the beds are, which we've found can be lacking at other rentals. Close enough to restaurants and shopping(15-20 minutes) but you still far enough away to enjoy the quiet! Until next time :-)
