The house is in a great location. We enjoy walking and the location afforded easy access to beach and other activities. Honestly it was great being able to be close enough to the property to cool off with the excessive heat before enjoying more outdoor activities. The property owner stayed in touch to make sure we had everything we needed she was really sweet.

Very nice and clean. Great location. Would definitely recommend. Only thing is it’s a little more than a short walk to the beach, but not a deal breaker. Will definitely stay again.

Very clean and fit our needs for this trip. AC and all appliances worked well. Convenient location and even provided a couple of beach chairs for use. The large, shaded deck was very nice.A bit dated and could use some weather stripping around the front door and degreaser on the kitchen cabinets.

This is a lovely home with a beautiful, full width of the house, covered deck and 2 large patio doors that were sparkling clean upon our arrival. The neighborhood is quiet and birds serenade you. It is a 1/2 mile walk to the beach parking lot and eating establishments.
