Forget this one
This is a tired, old farm house that should have been torn down fifty years ago. The pictures and descriptions didn’t come close to accurately describing this place. We paid for three nights but went to a hotel after one night. If we had more time we wouldn’t have stayed even one night.

Great for a group of gals
Eight of is stayed at this property for a long bachelorette weekend, and it was lovely. Great location if you want a bit of the beach and the city, which are both about 30 min away. The house looks just like the listing but with a beautiful garden in the summertime. One day it was raining, so we stayed in and got cozy watching movies and playing games, which I thought the house was perfect for. I would definitely stay here again.
