This property is so amazing! We stayed here for a girls trip. Such a great location. A block from the beach and an easy walk into town with all the shops and restaurants! Immaculately kept and fully stocked. I can not say enough good things about this property. All the things you need for beach days are in the garage. I was also very thankful for the A/C because many beach houses don't have it and it was unseasonably warm. Thank you for being great hosts. We will definitely return.

We had a great stay. The kitchen is very well equipped and has lots of space for a large group to eat in a dining room/kitchen combination. They had lots of beach toys and it’s two blocks to the beach with a wagon to carry stuff to the beach. Has a nice little yard in the back as well. We had a great stay.

great for multi-generational family stay

We had a lovely stay for some family time. The house was well stocked with cooking and beach supplies, which was super handy. The house hummed loudly when the water was running, otherwise the house was everything we could have needed and we enjoyed ourselves immensely.
