We had a very good time. Great cabin, great location. Please with everything except the coffee pot. We couldn't get the pot side to work and didn't care for the flavors on the cup side. This is our 3rd time renting this cabin and will rent again. Thank you for having us!

A group of ladies, mostly former co-workers from school, spent 4 nights and had the time of our lives. This is the 3rd or 4th time we have stayed at this particular house and have never had any issues.

This property was amazing if you like the open floor plan this house offered that. With plenty of room and comfortable beds, to rest after a fun filled day at the beach. The porch overlooked the beach, which was basically a hop skip and jump from the house. Got to see the sunrise.
