Great, cozy house, had everything we needed. Perfect location near the beach; nice to have a front and back deck - one of them was always out of the wind. The house is well supplied with towels and beach gear.

Literally steps from the beach, with a great retro beach house vibe. Well-equipped with both kitchen staples for cooking, beach gear, and toys as well. The owner was very communicative and friendly. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Host was very responsive and had great suggestions. The location is perfect and the house is eclectic with great local art. We were really looking forward to the hot tub and it was a bit run down and didn’t get to 100. It rained so some ants decided to invade. We had a wonderful time and it was nice that the lower rooms were fairly separated because we were there with my adult kids.

Beach getaway

We had a wonderful getaway to the beach with grand daughter and parents. The beach is right outside our door and it was perfect for the little one, and us! Thank you Mary for sharing your beach house with us.
