We loved our stay! The house is in a cool location, although walk to the beach is probably an exaggeration. Its a beautiful, clean, comfortable house and the host responds quickly and is extremely accommodating and helpful! Would recommend to anyone visiting the beaches or dunes!

Thank you for the kind review! We're so glad you enjoyed your stay. For future guests, the beach is about a 7-minute walk (0.3 miles by Google Maps). We'd love to host you again!

Adorable and stocked beach house

Cheryl was a fantastic host who provided lots of amenities. Her communication was excellent and she was super accommodating. This little bungalow was perfect for our family of four- my husband, myself, our toddler, and our baby. It was walking distance to the beach, zoo, multiple playgrounds, and a cute cafe called Dune Billies. There was a shed full of all the beach gear you could possibly want. Would definitely stay again!!!

Clean and cute house. Love the backyard with the fire pit and seats. Loved the shed full of useful fun and equipment needed for the beach and fire pit. Communication was flawless. The walk to the beach on a beautiful day is great. Probably a 5-10 minute walk to the beach. The breakfast joint dunnies had great food and feel. Would stay again for sure.
