Great house and great location! The house is stocked with everything you need (pots, pans, etc.) Just make sure to bring essentials, foil, salt and pepper etc. We appreciated the house having beach chairs, wagon and other beach supplies. They also painted some of the outside before we arrived and looked great.

A couples Getaway

I was very disappointed with the overall cleanliness of the home. I only use part of the home since it was only my husband and I. The home is a 3 bedroom Home. We only use 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom. of the home. But some of the restrooms in the home were not clean and the sheets on the bed should have been replaced months ago they were dirty and needed to be replaced badly, even after washing they were so thin and very warned they still didn't look clean. The mattress in master bedroom was soiled and stained. I actually had to take sheets and mattress cover off and wash before sleeping that night. The oven was not clean and the overall condition of home needed some work. The Pics on website look great I think they were taking a little while back. I did Speak to the owner and she apologized and said that they were replacing cleaning company and that they would fix problem for future renters. She also mention they would be renovating some of the home in January. Needles to say I believe when these issues are fixed the home will be a lovely home to rent. Location is really good your across the street from beach and you have a wonderful coffee house in the corner. I hope that all of these issues are resolved soon.

Amazing and Relaxing!

This house was everything we wanted and more! From the direct view of the beach, to Camille’s coffee across the street, to the comfortable amenities of the house, it was a true vacation! The house had things we didn’t even think were important, like comfortable beach chairs and umbrellas to use on the beach, and sand toys for the kids. These have now become a staple in our vacation wants! Thank you for maintaining a clean house! This is a very big deal when traveling with children. It was amazing and we will definitely be back!
