Great home and location. Our dogs absolutely loved the yard and running with the neighbors dogs. Great weekend getaway! The one hing we could say could’ve been better was the master bedroom mattress- we found it to be uncomfortable.

Location of property seemed a bit distant from town initially but was actually less than 3-4 miles depending on where we were headed. The area was nice and quiet, the backyard was fantastic for our fur baby! The outdoor deck and patio were wonderful! Would definitely consider staying again!

Great family place!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Nautical Nest! It was spacious enough for my family and our fur babies! A big plus was the cleanliness and openness for my 7 month old to crawl around and play. The yard was big with plenty of room for our German Shepherds. 10/10 will stay here again!

We really enjoyed this house. It has a great set up for families. The backyard was a great place for the 3 year old to play and the adults loved the seating area and hot tub! It was just a 5 minute drive to the beach park. It was a perfect location for us!

This is the second time my husband and I have stayed here with our little Corgi. The backyard is great as he loves to run and play ball. There are dogs on both sides of the property but they all seem to get along , just a bit of initial barking. The property is just as pictured, living area and kitchen are very spacious, however there is no dining table but there are barstools and a large countertop. My husband and I found plenty of dishes and cookware and we ate all of our meals in for four nights. We did bring our own spices, oil, etc. The house is convenient to Main St. if you don’t mind walking a couple of miles.Would definitely stay again!
