Beautiful beach views!

by David

Had a great time!

Beautiful beach views!

by Deanna

The house is very nice and very close to the beach. The sleeping arrangements were great for a large family. We enjoyed the outdoors seating areas but the kitchen is very small. Be aware that you are technically only supposed to have 4 vehicles on the property even though the listing says plenty of room for parking. You are only allowed to park on the driveway but we couldn’t even fit more than two cars there so we had to park across the street. The house is very close to the beach but you do have to cross the main road when walking there.

Loved the location

by Jacquetta

Our family loved the location. It was close enough to the beach that we enjoyed the views during morning coffee and in the evenings. The house had enough beds to make it comfortable for our family and it being pet friendly was definitely a plus. We would stay there again.

Beautiful beach views!

by Christy

Stayed this whole last week through July 4. Our adult kiddos were there over the weekend and then just me and hubs the rest of the time. 2 patios with perfect views and best breezes. We were at the beach every day and enjoyed the house when we weren’t...Comfortable, relaxing, perfect time away. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
