The house was great! It’s had some face-lifting since the listing photos were taken, which initially confused me but we got it figured out! The house is well situated with a great playground and coffee shop a few minutes up the road one way and a beautiful quiet beach a few minutes up the other way. It was clean and perfect for our family of 5. We will gladly stay again!
