Nice quiet neighborhood about 4 blocks to the beach. House was nice. Could definitely use a refresh. Furniture in living room was not very comfortable. Just a few very low chairs. Noticed quite a few bugs in the house. Owner was very accessible and nice. Overall it fit our needs.

Perfect home for a family vacation!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was attractive, clean, and clutter free. It was the perfect size for four adults and a toddler. This home allowed my husband with mobility issues to be comfortable because it is single story, has a walk in shower, plus an attached garage. Having a high chair and a wide selection of toys was an added bonus. Everything we needed was provided. The owner was very responsive and pleasant. We highly recommend this home.

Early Christmas
Met our adult kids there for an early Christmas together! House was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Outdoor space was fabulous and the neighborhood was very quiet and super cute.
