Quiet beach! Enjoyed our time and would stay here again!

Our group really enjoyed our time here! If you’re looking for a quiet beach, this is the place to go. The house is spacious and the lofted bedroom gives an extra level of privacy up the spiral staircase. We appreciated the beach supplies that the host provided as well. Amy was responsive and helpful on the couple of little things we messaged about. Would stay here again!

Very cute and welcoming! Very short walk to be on the beach!

Property was exactly as described very cute and welcoming. We Were visiting for a friend's wedding so did not spend much time in the house. The host was very quick to respond to any questions. You can see the ocean across the street and it is a very short walk to be on the beach.

Great communication with the host however by the time you get to your rental it is not like you can change many of the things that were described differently than they actually were. The entire vacation rental was way smaller than pictured on VRBO and the stairs were extremely dangerous to walk up/tiny/almost broken. Everything was clean, but just very small space for 12 adults. . Grill was not a modern grill like we thought, it was old and very rusty. All of the chairs/wagon were broken. AC did not work well upstairs. No pull out bed, only a couch upstairs and downstairs. The house did come plenty stocked with household items though , so that was good.
