Home Away from Home!

This oceanfront home was a delight! Very clean and well appointed. Kitchen is well-stocked and has everything you could possibly need - even for a very large group. Comfortable beds, cozy living room space, great deck, and a wonderful swing below the house to sway with the ocean breezes. We loved it!

Very clean, well supplied and wonderfully decorated. Perfect Location - right on the beach! The cabin itself was awesome.Extremely disappointed in 3 bedroom description. We searched for a 3 bedroom cabin for 6 adults. Putting a bunkbed in the primary room's closet - no window at all - with the only way in and out is through the primary bedroom, then through the primary bathroom, is not a 3rd bedroom for 6 adults. It really needs to be more accurately described in your listing - it's really a 2 bedroom with a bonus bunkbed in a closet area.
3rd bedroom is a bunk in the primary room's closet, only accessible through the primary bathroom. No window and can't get in or out of that room if someone is showering or using the restroom.
