This property is very well located near downtown and beach/shore area. Easy to find parking in town and many good choices for both shopping and dining. (Including a French restaurant with great water views) The property was very well maintained and stocked. We went during a heat advisory and the AC kept us nice and cool. The screened in back sunroom was very comfortable and as the house, had clean modern furniture. I highly recommend!!
