We really enjoyed this house a lot. My husband and I traveled with 2 teenagers and it never felt too small with all of us in there. The bathrooms have been recently upgraded I believe and are like brand new! Just really in great condition and very pretty. The house is charming and the energy is great. It’s in a great spot—close enough for teens to ride to sunset slush but not overcrowded or noisy as it can get on the Main Street. Beach access is easy and close. Through one yard and across the street. Extras like the game table & outdoor putting hole/bocci court were fun too. The teens loved the bunkbed room! And our main suite was nice and spacious with good curtains so we could still sleep in when we wanted to! Great house. Would definitely visit again and recommend.

House was clean and good layout, very open. Beds and furniture were comfortable. Enjoyed the outside area. A few things that would have deterred me from getting this house had I known about the ahead of time. 1) The very large house right behind this house has a pool. If it is rented you will hear 20 people out there even when you’re inside. 2) There are security cameras on every inch of this property. Front door, back porch, carport, backyard, sitting area (that has shower). If you are outside you are being watched.

Great Week!

The house is roomy and away from traffic noise from Ocean Blvd. We had to walk a little more to get to the beach but it was good exercise. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.
