Great time and location! Just a short walk to beach. Enjoyed amenities and experience!

The beach was just a short walk away. We appreciated the house had some beach chairs available and it was a much more enjoyable experience compared to driving like we’d done in the past. Only a couple other people on the beach so we had a great time!

Very cute and welcoming! Very short walk to be on the beach!

Property was exactly as described very cute and welcoming. We Were visiting for a friend's wedding so did not spend much time in the house. The host was very quick to respond to any questions. You can see the ocean across the street and it is a very short walk to be on the beach.

Amazing time! Loved all the baby items and games!

Amazing time with our family for a weekend beach trip. The space was comfortable and we felt right at home. We had our 2 toddlers and our dog and it was great. Loved all of the baby items and games. The sandbox was a big hit for our 3 year old. The house is very close to the beach so it was easy to hop over for short trips. Love that the restaurant and shop were right next to us too.
