What a great spot! The home is charming, the neighborhood is quiet, the beach is close. This is a great place to stay with kids -- proximity to the beach, bikes, games and books.

We loved this cute little house! We were there with another couple for three nights and you can't beat the location. The kitchen is well-equipped and the host left us a few treats, which was a nice touch. We didn't have enough time to use all the beach supplies, but the bikes were great. Check-in was easy and the host was responsive and helpful. Can't wait to go back!

This little beach house is truly perfect! It’s adorable, clean, well stocked, great (and I do mean great) location, and a super sweet and responsive host. This house has everything you need. Kate has thought of it all. We appreciated the welcome snacks, the bikes and beach gear, the fire pit, quick beach access…all perfect. We had the best time in this little paradise. We will be returning again in the future for sure!

The perfect beach house for our family of four spring break trip. The house was quite well appointed, the furnishings lovely, beds and pillows firm and in good shape, kitchen had everything we needed, and just can't say enough about the wonderful and highly responsive host, Kate. She went out of her way to make sure our family had a great experience. We hope to be back next year!

Quick family beach getaway

My family of 5 had a great time staying here. With the beach just steps away, to the short bike ride to town and the home away from home feel of the cottage, we had a blast. I highly recommend staying here. Kate was super easy to work with and we will definitely be back!
