The best place to stay and a Chris was a great host. Recommend this place for anyone that wants close to the beach and still a walk away from downtown area of food and shopping and pet approved. But I most enjoyed the neighborhood atmosphere as I sipped on coffee on the screen porch area under the shade of big trees, watching local people walking dogs and jogging and a few turtles slowly going by. Everything was well stocked in kitchen and bath..can't say enough about this property

The property and neighborhood are beautiful. We have stayed here multiple times. You can hear a bit of traffic at night leaving the beach but it is not horrible. Easy to walk to the beach. Golf carts are available for rent on Government Street to cruise around the area. Plenty of eats, shops, and parks.
