Clean and as advertised! The stairs may be tricky for some since they are older and steep. However we had no problems and the host was extremely easy to communicate with!

Lobster Claw was a great place to stay. Close to the beach and many places to eat. We were able to walk to the beach and were lucky to be able to attend the Seafood Festival,The house was clean and had everything we needed. The only negative was the steep, narrow stairs to the second floor, a safety issue for the elderly.

Close to beach but that was about it. Dangerous stairs. Top stair edge not finished correctly, my husband almost fell. Upstairs slanted floor and uncomfortable beds. Only parking for one car. If you have 2 cars there is parking an 8 minute drive away. Pictures make it look much better then reality.

Lovely place for a weekend visit

Lovely, clean place. Definitely set up for short term visits, but has everything you need for a brief stay. Kitchen supplies are standard brief vacation rental fair, don’t expect to do any complicated cooking. Walls are a bit thin, so bring earplugs if you’re a light sleeper on a busy weekend with lots of guests. Our kiddos loved the super close beach access. Would definitely come again.

The house is cozy, quick walk to the beach. A bit drafty in the colder temps despite the heaters. Mostly near the back door and windows. Bedding was very comfortable. Leslie was quick to help as needed.

Fantastic summer getaway!

This beach house was lovely! Right across from the beach and restaurants but far enough away from the crowds for a calm and relaxing stay. Beautifully furnished with a very responsive host, my family and I will definitely look to book this house again next visit!

Very friendly host and super cute house

The house was very clean, well maintained, and a great size for all of us. The neighborhood was very walkable and the house is super close to the beach which allowed for lots of walking. The host was very responsive and friendly and gladly answered any questions and concerns we had. The website provided when booking also made everything very clear and was referenced many times during the trip as it was so thorough. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a nice stay at the beach and would definitely stay at again.
