Amazing views, easy access, very quiet neighborhood. Prefect beach escape form your every day hustle and bussle. Pack lite, no useable luggage lift totally my fault for not fully reading the description, or asking questions, instead of just assuming , still an amazing trip, and would definitely book again!

The property was spacious and clean with an exceptionally stocked kitchen. The deck is huge and the the yard being fenced with a gate directly to the beach was beyond the perfect set up for me and the dog.I spent most of my weekend either on the beach or on the deck!
