Convenient to the local beaches we wanted to explore, interesting layout with the two detached rooms, but worked well for us. House was well stocked and had a homey feel with artwork and furniture galore. The cookie the host left were devoured by my horde in moments of arrival and greatly appreciated. Laundry, linens and kitchen were very well stocked. Unlike some places that have four forks, spoons, towels, glasses and and maybe 2 dull knives, this place had what you needed.
