Locations was perfect. Nice walk to town center very quiet street. Having the beach access so close was great. The fact that the host had everything you needed to enjoy a day at the beach was amazing!!! Comfort of the bed was lacking. However it wouldn’t stop me from booking again.

Spring break

I was very impressed with our stay! The owner Sherman was very responsive from start to finish. The house was very clean,and I was amazed at the extras he provided. My teens enjoyed the corn hole boards and all the other extra activities he provided. I enjoyed the kitchen and grill. The location was absolutely perfect we could walk across the street to the beach or to the pier. We will be back for our next vacation. Thanks Sherman for making our spring break a fun and memorable one!

Wonderful stay!

We had a great stay here for a family wedding, two couples, a baby and a small dog. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, plus plenty of cleaning supplies. The location was perfect, just a few houses down from the beach access, and a short walk to the shops and restaurants. Special thanks to the owners who helped us with the doors, when we accidentally locked ourselves out in a rush! They were prompt to communicate and resolve the problem. On top of that they left some snacks for us and toys for our niece to enjoy on the beach! Overall, would recommend for a couple or small family, and we would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Literally 2 minute walk to beach access. Comfy and had everything we needed. Gift basket was a nice touch. Plenty of towels and even had toilet paper! Quiet location and close to everything you need including short walk to restaurants and coffee shop.
