Everything about this property was perfect fo our family Christmas get-together. Near the highway and the beach. Such a cute cozy cottage with a well-appointed kitchen. Everything was easy to find and use. When we had questions, the owner answered right away. They even brought us a slow cooker and put up a Christmas tree! A snack bucket was a wonderful treat too. As an EV owner, the charger was an added bonus. We plan on returning.
