Super cute little house. Felt very cottage-y. Loved the three seasons room. Great location as well. Easy to beach or town. We rented a golf cart which was fun and helpful.

Awesome location for a family of 4 with two small children. Very close to downtown, an awesome children’s playground, and the beach. House was much bigger than expected which was a pleasant surprise. Stairs were a little tricky with our curious toddler but we made it work. Host was very responsive the morning of check out when we had a little hiccup. Would definitely stay again!

Nice place, great sun porch!

The cute house was very clean. The bunkbeds are sized for children so very uncomfortable for adults.The hot water didn't work in one of the showers and no one replied when we told them. The two porches were very enjoyable.

Great Location and Space

The location is great. Within walking distance to the beach/kids corner and downtown. The home was as described. As another reviewer noted, the bunk room has a high window that lets in evening light keeping the room very bright until dusk, something to be aware of if you have young children. Otherwise the place is great, all kitchen items we would need and plenty of seating and rooms and space for our family.
