We loved how close we were to Long Sands Beach. The kitchen was well stocked. The house was beautiful and provided all we needed to have a relaxing week at the beach!

Check in was as easy as it gets. House was clean. It is steps away from the beach.

Lovely home

We enjoyed our stay. The door to the downstairs bedroom is very squeaky which was bothersome but is easily fixed.
