Location is awesome, just around the corner from the water. Property was very clean but could use some upgrades such as new pots and pans, new trash can, paint in bedrooms etc. Everything is in working condition but just very old and I was not expecting that. Nonetheless we had a very great stay and I would go back.

This house was perfect for our family vacation. It was very clean and supplied everything we needed for cooking and BBQ’ing. The house came fully stocked with bikes and everything you need for the beach, which is just steps away. I would highly recommend staying here. The driveway was a huge bonus too!
