It IS as pretty as the pictures!
There are three bedrooms - a rare treat - with great big swaths of living space inside and outside both the front and back doors. A wonderful oasis with stores close by - but you’d never know it. Very tastefully and minimully decorated so you do not feel you are living in someone’ house. Thank you Shannon.

Comfortable Home, Great Location
We enjoyed the month of February at Shannon’s home. Lots of space, well furnished and kitchen had everything we needed. The play area and toys for our granddaughter came in super handy as did the bikes and beach equipment

Best VRBO stay ever!
Could not have have a better experience. Shannon was great at communicating with us; she met and exceeded expectations with her attention to detail. The house was greatly cleaned. Check in and check out was a breeze. Even with multiple adults and children, we felt comfortably at home and relaxed here.
