This is a perfect place for a beach fix. Property is exactly as represented on VRBO. Clean, great floor plan, and newly renovated as stated on website is accurate and it looks and feels great. Quick easy access to the beach. The balcony that over looks the beach is huge and has great Adirondack gliders to relax in and soak up the peace of the beach. I will definitely return to this peaceful place.

A perfect house for a couple or small family. Seemed like recently remodeled. Very neat, clean & decorated. Retro looking appliances were neat. Great covered large deck with nice rocking chairs. Even though 2nd row there is nothing in front of the house so you have a great ocean view. No obstructions. We will definitely stay here again.Prompt answers by host to any questions we had.
