This cabin is perfect for two families. Each couple had their own room & king sized bed. The other two rooms have bunk beds in them for the kids to pile in. It’s the perfect size and the layout of the house couldn’t be any better. It is decorated so nicely and feels very homey. The house is super clean. The location couldn’t be better…steps away from the beach. The downstairs is nice and perfect to hang out in. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed plus more. The kids loved the snow cone machine and s’mores sticks. The owner Robin was quick to respond to the few messages I had. 10/10 would recommend and would definitely rent again in the future.

Family fun.

Stayed for our traditional end of the summer family trip. We had such a great time in this clean and spacious house. There were a couple of problems with the TV in the living room, but I messaged the property manager and she resolved the issues in record time. I 100% recommend this property to anyone looking for a fun family outing. I will definitely reserve this place again for my family to enjoy.

Senior Prom

I was the chaperone for a group of seniors at this beautiful beach house. The hostess was accommodating and kind. The property itself was better than the pictures could even portray with all the amenities. The home itself had a walk with the ease of getting to and from the beach that was amazing. I cannot say enough, how grateful I am for the hostess and her amazing, kind, and generous support for our trip!
