Great place!

Amanda had everything we needed for our week stay. The house was very clean and supplied with everything we needed from the kitchen to the bathroom. There was even everything you needed to go to the beach! Enjoyed the use of the 2 bikes too. It’s also located in a safe area. Would definitely stay here again.

This place was absolutely adorable, super cozy and quaint! It was an unusually chilly week in Florida when I was there, so I didn't get to make as much use of the bikes or proximity to the ocean, but will next time for sure. I will be visiting the area quite a bit to see my aging aunt and uncle and will definitely stay here again! I set the smoke alarm off cooking at one point before I realized the ceiling fan was the fan in the kitchen, but after that it worked wonderfully!
