About this property
Steps from the Beach!
When you arrive you will see there is enough space to park 3 vehicles at the front of the house. Underneath the house you will see a picnic area with tables and chairs where you can enjoy a meal with the family. This will lead you to the fenced playground in the back where the kids can play safely. Also underneath the house is an outdoor, enclosed shower where you can wash the sand off your feet when returning from the beach, which is only about one minute walking distance.
You will need to walk up a flight of about 20 stairs to get to the wrap around deck area where you will be able to enjoy beautiful ocean views, as well as a soft ocean breeze. Enter the home into a roomy living room which has 2 ottoman single hide-a -beds for additional sleeping and a big screen Roku television where you can enjoy your favorite shows under your own accounts. You will also enjoy the fully equipped and updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. As you make your way down the hall you will find the master suite has a king size bed as well as it's own bathroom and exit onto the deck. the 2nd bedroom has a queen size bed. the 3rd bedroom has 2 full size bunk beds.
Please remember that this property is on a peninsula, and is therefore surrounded by water, which means there may likely be mosquitoes, especially during summertime. We do have the property treated regularly for this but can’t guarantee that it will be mosquito free.

The property was fantastic! It was exactly as described and had plenty of room for pets to roam in gated areas. The location was within walking distance to the beach and made it easy to go back and forth. Everything was clean which made our stay very comfortable. We would definitely visit again!
The beach house was great and the amenities fit our family’s needs. I have a daughter with special needs and she loved that there was a swing set. The beds were very comfortable. We had a short walk to the beach from the house. The host communicated with us promptly. We had a great, relaxing experience!!
Beautiful views! Close walk to beach. Road to drive to beach was also right in front of the house. House was very clean and lovely with a fenced area. Will be back!
Very clean, well kept, comfy beds, well appointed. Thanks for the laundry pods! Al was very responsive and easy to communicate with. We had a great experience! Thank you!
Amazing location! Home needs a bit of TLC, but overall it was amazing! Host was easy to communicate with.

Thank you for your feedback. Since your visit we have been able to change out the living room furniture as well as clean up and replace a few other things that were a little worn out. We would love to host you again!

This is a beautiful property, loved everything, good communication, and really enjoyed the balcony and being able to walk right to the beach without having to drive to it and finding a place to park.
The property was exactly as it was advertised. The house was spotless, the beach access ran in front of the house and the view was great. We’ll definitely be back.
1 minute walk to the beach! We had the best time as a family and loved this beach house with great views. The swing set/slide for the kids was the perfect touch!
The house was perfect for our group. Had some issues with appliances but they were addressed right away. Short walk to the beach was great for after dinner walks on the beach .
