Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
Initially very excited to stay here. Location is great, close to shops, and close to the pier. The house itself was okay. A lot of the nails are sticking up in the deck so mind your feet, but the deck was also a great run for the dogs because it was gated off. The kitchen was okay, the sink drips and you really have to mess with it to get it to stop, I let the realty team know and never got a response. The dining area and living room were comfortable and spacious with large sliding doors. The dryer is broken but thankfully it was sunny so we put clothes out on the line. The elevator was a pain to use but did work which we were grateful for. The bedrooms were nice, the sliders to outside stick a good bit but was a nice arm workout. Distance to the dune was great, the walkway could use some maintenance though. There are also lots of burs on the property so mind little feet or pup paws .Overall enjoyed the time there but it could have been better.

Christmas at the beach

We reserved this home on relatively short notice but thoroughly enjoyed the house which is directly on the beach just a short walk to Janette's pier. It was just two of us and dogs but the home has many comfortable bedrooms. The main suite on the second floor has a great view of the ocean which made watching the sunrises great.
