Everything you need and nothing you don’t

we stayed at this property in July 2025. It is a pet friendly property yet is sparkling clean and is one I would recommend for anybody with or without pets. The location is perfect and truly just one block from the beach and an easy walk to get to it. You can also park your vehicle on the beach if you don’t want to haul your chairs and coolers over there. The property has freezing cold air conditioning and the main bed is incredibly comfortable. There is just one bathroom so for large parties you might want a larger place but just for a couple or family with kids the setup is absolutely perfect. We look look forward to our next visit next summer and cannot be happier with this property.

Great location to beach and town.

The house was very clean and didn't smell like doggies even though we wanted a pet friendly house. We were walking distance to the beach and walked down there frequently. Not far from town to get to a store or restaurant. It was nice sitting on the front porch seeing the ocean and drink coffee in the morning. The house was so home like we wanted to stay longer! We would definitely like to stay there again!

Would recommend

We stayed here for 2 nights for my daughter's cheer competition. The location was great, easy walk to the beach, short drive to town but just far enough to enjoy some peace and quiet. The greatest part, we got to brings our . There was a yard for them to play in and the balcony area also had a gate, which was helpful and would be for small kids as well. There were a few small inconveniences due to the recent rains, but the host was quick to respond, kind and understanding. We would definitely be staying here again if we are ever in the area. The ease of communication and responsiveness of the host made it all that much better.
