Nice, clean property with amazing view. Beds were comfortable, as was the living room. Not provided in the listing is that all bathrooms are on the first floor and there is no heat in guest bedrooms other than space heaters.

Relaxing Vacation
We loved our stay at this house. Beautiful views, clean, spacious and comfortable. It’s so peaceful to walk down to the water and listen to the waves and the birds. Everything you need for your stay (utensils, cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, towels etc.) were provided. Thank you!

Exactly what we needed
The property and views were stunning and we are so lucky to have stumbled on this property. Our little one loved going down to the waterfront and playing with the rocks. The beds and outdoor furniture was so comfortable and we could just relax and watch the boats go by. Plenty of towels and fans in every room. The checkout process really sets this place apart as it was by far the easiest I have ever encountered in a rental. 10/10 would recommend and would absolutely stay here again.

Perfect Vacation Home
I am usually very picky, but I could not find a single thing lacking in this house. It was spacious and very clean. Beds were comfortable. There were plenty of towels. Extras such as laundry soap, coffee, and fans were appreciated. The location was awesome. Big deck with beautiful view. Beach is quiet and uncrowded. We only saw one other couple while we were there. I will definitely stay here again.
