This is a super cute property. Very clean and well stocked. The beach view is lovely! The only drawback is the noise from a very busy hwy 90. That being said, the accessibility of being so close to the hwy was really handy. Overall I would recommend this property for a unique beach stay.

Possibly one of the best and well appointed little cottages I have ever stayed in while traveling. There was not one thing missing with the exception of a coffee pot. Everything was thoughtfully planned to make your stay as comfortable as possible.. Cottage was full of charm and whimsy. The furniture was comfortable. The view of the golf was wonderful from the viewing deck and overall was a most wonderful experience.

Wonderful view and just a unique and super cute layout. I’m in real estate so I see a large variety of properties and whoever put this one together did a fantastic job. There’s a large bed in the open area, but there are also bunk beds in sort of their own room. My mom and I stayed for two nights and we enjoyed our stay. It is very well appointed and very clean.

Great little spot!

The Surf Shack matched the VRBO listing and more! Most well-stocked VRBO rental we've stayed in. Check in was easy and Heather answered all questions we had quickly. Would definitely rent this cute little place again!

Best surprise--can coozie. I forgot mine. Least liked--bathroom light should not be automatic. Too bright @ 3 am. Absolutely loved the decor, and the privacy. If life allows, we can do it again.
