Cute and cozy!

We had a great stay and the house had everything we needed! The fenced yard and outdoor shower were a big plus! We also appreciated the beach chairs, wagon, and cooler. Everyone in the area restaurants and stores were so very friendly! We also left a bag and the owner worked with us to ship the bag! We greatly appreciate her going the extra mile! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Just right for our little family

We stayed here with our one year old while we were visiting family. The space was perfect for three people, and would probably have worked well with one more too. The house was clean and well-equipped, and a great location for visiting the beach. Our host was kind and communicative. We'd absolutely stay here again. Thanks for everything!
