Great Spot Close to the Beach

We had a really nice stay at this house. It was just a few minute walk to the beach, which made it easy to go back and forth throughout the day. The neighborhood was very quiet. The house had everything we needed and was comfortable for our stay. Would definitely consider staying here again.

This house was so cute. Great proximity to the beach, located in a cute neighborhood, and best of all--not 1 million steps to climb! My aging mother who isn't great with steps appreciated having everything on one level. It was also great as someone with little ones as I didn't have to carry them up the steps after hauling everything back from the beach AND didn't have to worry about my newly walking toddler falling down stairs constantly. It had everything we needed and had great charm. Thanks for having us!

Absolutely perfect

The location was amazing, the house was perfect. What a beautiful place to visit and it was so relaxing to just hear the waves from the porch while drinking my morning coffee. It was only a short walk away to get to the beach. We had plenty of room for our family of 5. Thanks for this great family trip!

☆☆☆☆June Vacation☆☆☆☆

Our vacation was amazing and it was due to how well your home was put together. Short walk to the beach, washer and dryer, back patio with a fire pit and chairs/table. This place can easily sleep 9. I cannot say enough wonderful about this VRBO. Jim, the property manager was a peach and super helpful.
