We had a wonderful time. House was clean, quiet, and very cozy! Great location, close to the beach and local shops. The fenced in yard was perfect for the dogs.
Kathy is absolutely a great host and would highly recommend this property!

Perfect for what we needed.
It’s was a great house and great location! The views of the water are so pretty, and it was a very short drive to the beach. The house was clean and well kept. It had everything we needed/wanted. We had a great experience!
Quaint home, clean, nice size rooms, good neighborhood. Recommend bringing your own comfortable folding/ rocking chairs. Standard Outdoor patio Furniture provided isn't comfortable for long periods.Would stay again!
