We absolutely love this cabin!! We have stayed here twice now and we will definitely stay again!! It rained most of the day Friday, but it was okay because they have things to keep you entertained. We played ping pong and hung out in the hot tub. This cabin is very clean and organized and the host is quick to respond and even gives suggestions of things to do in the area. Giving this rental
The property was just as photo shown. The owners were very courteous and attentive. Always available if we had any questions. They allowed us to check in a little early which helped tremendously and was greatly appreciated. I recommend this to anyone. Very close to the beach, short walk and lots of games and fun stuff to do.
We had a fantastic summer getaway at The Runaway! The house was exactly as advertised and in a wonderful quiet neighborhood! We experienced a day of rain but didn’t mind it at all with the game room and all the amenities that kept us busy! We would definitely stay here again!
It is a very nice cabin, plenty of space for activities by the tiki bar, nice outdoor fire pit for s’mores and just lounging around. Beds are super comfortable, very pleased with my stay.
What a great place to stay. Neighbors were friendly and the beach is about a hundred yards from the front door. We had a great experience and I am currently checking dates to book our next family vacation here!
Cabin was very clean and was exactly like the listing. Lots of fun activities and had everything we needed. Everyone enjoyed themselves and we will definitely be back. Dave and Emily are great host and kept in contact throughout the whole process. I highly recommend their cabin for a nice family getaway.
