We had a great weekend here! Blue buoy is very kid and dog friendly, which we appreciated. We loved the little extras that were above and beyond, like the real pine wood floor, cute little breakfast nook with bench, and well-stocked kitchen with unusual and attractive dishes and silverware. There is a nice yard to walk the dog. Driveway was spacious and accessibility easy. There was plentiful AC in all rooms and outdoor hot water showers. Great location with walking distance to restaurants and pier and one street over from the beach. We would definitely return here!

The location is truly 5 stars. It’s easy to walk to the beach and just a short stroll to a couple restaurants. I can’t give the overall experience a full 5 stars because of an issue I had our first night. When we arrived after a long travel day, the beds were made but had no sheets. All the linens and towels were in a bag, and we did not discover this until we were ready to go to sleep. Having to strip both beds and make them up that late was stressful. There was no mention in the listing. If this is standard practice, it should be clearly stated so guests can plan. The bathroom could use some upgrades or a deep cleaning. Overall, the location is fantastic, but a few small but important details kept this from being a perfect stay.
