My initial sensory hit upon entering this Vrbo was 'quiet' & 'peaceful.' Windows are abundant in this Vrbo, ALL with great views of the coastal waters and nature. There aren't any homes nearby, I mean, there are neighbors, but there is ample space between the homes. We found everything needed in the kitchen to prepare the food we brought with us. The indoor and outdoor table seating offered options depending on the sun's angle and temp.

The place has potential but it so so dirty and one of the beds smell like sour linen. The coach was full toenails/fingernails and pet hair. The coach is terrible and feels like you are sitting on wood. The bathroom needs work and the entire house needs a deep cleaning. I almost was not able to stay due to it being so dirty. If it was clean and had a clean couch it would have been a good stay. View was nice and the spot was peaceful.
