The house was clean, easy to walk in to and use it like a home away from home. Also had a nice simple pet friendly yard. Sent a couple messages to owners who were quick to respond and helpful. Pretty close to a bunch of beaches also. All around worth it!

We had a wonderful long weekend here. It was quiet and peaceful and exceeded our expectations. The hour is clean and comfortable and very well-stocked with everything we needed. Communication with Kirby is easy and quick to respond. It's walking distance to the beach. The house is true to its listing--what you see in the photos is what you get. It's also in a great location and close to all the things we wanted to do. We would definitely stay here again.
