We had a wonderful weekend in a peaceful and friendly community. A wonderful place for a family weekend, we all felt at home. The house is adorable, well maintained. VRBO describes 3 bathrooms. In reality there is one full bath with show and bathtub on 2nd floor and a bath with a toilet and sink only on the main floor.

New Favorite Hideaway

We came to the area from out of town to visit family. As a mother of several adult children, I wanted a relaxing atmosphere with a more homey feel than a hotel. The house is beautiful. The kitchen had all the necessary appliances. And the property was located in walking distance to downtown, shops as well as the beach and water front. Definitely want to come back.
