Great Stay Near the Beach & Boardwalk
We enjoyed our stay at the Knotty Goose very much. There was plenty of space for our family to spread out both upstairs and downstairs. Beds were cozy and the whole place was well maintained. We appreciated access to the boogie boards, bikes, and beach chairs. Only a five minute walk to the beach and a handful of dining options. The walk to the boardwalk was a beeezy 15 minutes. I recommend the little coffee shop!!
