We had a wonderful stay. The house was clean and well equipped for a week long stay. We utilized the pool every day we could and it was great for relaxing around the deck. The area was quite which we expected being off the main highway. We very much enjoyed ourselves and would stay here again if in the area.

The septic was all over the back end, you could smell it coming up through the sink when you turned on the shower or even to brush your teeth, it was awful. The pool was a nice feature that’s truly about it. The house really needs some upgrades, the bunk beds were broken. I’m glad we had no one sleeping in them at lease.

This house was very small but cute and the layout worked well. It is close enough to downtown and the beach to enjoy dinner out, time at the pier and a relaxing day at the beach. It is also far enough away from the crowds of spring break offering a great get away. This house would be perfect for a family with kids that don't mind bunking all together for an all-night giggle session. We would definitly return for more visits
