Our family really enjoyed our stay! Very clean and comfortable beds and bedding. Location is awesome! Short walk to the beach and downtown. Loved having access to bikes and beach stuff too! Hot tub was nice to relax in after a day out. The only thing that would’ve made our stay more enjoyable is a tv in at least one of the bedrooms. We will be back!

We loved it - as always. It was our third year of celebrating my birthday with my 2 daughters and we felt like we were coming "home." Only thing we couldn't find were hot pads which would have been useful. Thanks again. We'll be back next November!

Perfect location with great outdoor space to hang out

This is the second time we have stayed at this house and we plan on returning again next year. The house is very cute and the backyard is even better. We loved making use of the hot tub and other backyard amenities. The location is akso perfect with easy access to both the beach and downtown. In addition, the hosts are very responsive to any questions/concerns we had.
