This little bungalow was exactly what a stay at the beach should be. We loved the huge front deck, the view, the quick walk to the beach. It was super clean and very well stocked with everything we could want for our stay.

Great location, lack of comfort and space

The bedrooms downstairs were very small, very smelly. The kitchen was very small as well, not convenient for families or cooking. The bedrooms upstairs had slanted roof which didnt show on the pics. The bbq pit was very rusted. The beach chairs were also old except for 2 Very small and narrow stairs case to lead upstairs

Really Nice Place

We would definitely book again. Short walk to the beach, like 2 minutes end of the block. All the beach accessories are provided along with wagons to haul it all. Clean place, lots of games provided. Huge deck, we were there a lot. We cooked a lot and the kitchen had most everything we needed. One thing to note-the two ground floor bedrooms were not “connected” to the upstairs inside, only by outside stairs. It was fine for us, but may not be for younger kids by themselves. Really nice owner and easy to get ahold of. Bathrooms were great and lots of hot water. Really enjoyed our weekend!

Awesome place

The host was incredibly kind and really went above and beyond to help accommodate us after Hurricane Beryl blew through and worked to make sure our stay was perfect. Great location, close to the beach and we love that it had a ground level rooms for the older folks who can't easily do stairs and a room of bunks for kids/teens. The deck was perfect for eating and lounging. Great place! We'll be back!

Perfect Property!

This home had everything we needed! Space for teens below. Living space above for everyone to gather to watch movies. And oh. The covered porch was a dream with the breeze coming in!!!! Very few homes have such a large covered porch and this was perfect! Jennifer’s hospitality was spot on with nice touches and excellent communication. Hands down we would stay here again!!!

Cute getaway

This house is in the perfect location. The host also adds little touches to make it feel like a bed and breakfast. Two of the rooms are completely separate from the kitchen, living, and other two rooms. You have to go outside and downstairs to get to the other 2 rooms. Two of the rooms are also all the way upstairs with a narrow staircase. Nothing wrong with it, just for reference purposes.
