"We have stayed at this house for 4 years now. Location is excellent. You can park your car and walk to many restaurants within 1/2 mile. Right on the beach and walking/biking path in front of unit. House is clean and plenty of towels are provided. Fully equipped kitchen. Living area is small as are bedrooms but sitting out on the patio or down near the water is where you will spend most of your time. Overhead fan in primary bedroom and tower fans in other 2 bedrooms. Easy check in and check out. Garage for one or two cars. This year we parked one car on street since it’s pretty tight for 2 parked tandem in garage."
