Great location and great property. My family enjoyed the weekend. Granddaughters loved having a picnic outside in the backyard. Loved drinking coffee in the morning in the swing. Everything you need. We will be coming back to this house again. Our host was easy to communicate with and responded quickly.

This was one of the best Vrbo reservations that we have made! Location was perfect, close to the beach street yet in a neighborhood community, felt very safe. The home was impeccable in cleanliness, and the decor was celebrating our Mardi Gras tradition - loved it. Will definitely attempt to return in the summer to enjoy the outdoor lighted patio and swing. Thanks, Nikki, for sharing your home with us.

Delightful house! Everything was neat and clean and practically brand new. It was so nicely decorated for Christmas, a real welcoming sight! It was so comforting to know I could connect with the host, Nikki, which I did. I hope to come back again.

Great Stay!

The cottage is very nice and in a nice neighborhood right near the heart of downtown. It has all the little extra touches that you don’t always see, extra outlets in the bedrooms for charging devices, tons of mirrors, and plenty of kitchen utensils. We had a great stay!

This house was the perfect place for 3 couples to spend a long weekend. Clean, spacious, everything we needed AND 3 king beds! We rented a 6 seater golf cart for our stay, our vehicles never moved. I would recommend staying here and would stay here again.
