Perfect place to stay!

My wife and I stayed here for the Hangout music festival. Great place to stay! Cute house and everything was clean and well kept. House had everything we needed. The bikes were great for a mid morning ride, and only a 20 min walk to the festival and a 5 min walk to the beach. Will definitely stay again if we’re back in town!

Wonderful House!

House is remarkably clean, neat, tidy and spacious. All the comforts of home are provided including large tvs, washer/dryer etc. Beach is a short distance away with public access close by. Small snafu on check in but was taken care of right away with no further problems. Would definitely enjoy staying again.
