Special place, we created many wonderful memories here. Such an amazinf view off the deck, direct access to beach. Host was very responsive to a minor issue. Gives me a lot of trust any problem would be taken care of quickly and correctly. House was clean, a little skimpy on soap and other supplies, but nothing thats a serious issue. Kitchen was stocked very serviceably.Absolutely would stay again in a heartbeat.
