A beach house

We loved this lower apartment for just the two of us to have a little getaway. The location is perfect. The beach access is right out the door. We found it not to be as crowded as other accesses. Everything was just a mile or two away. Even the Dollar General because we forget the towels. The house was clean. We felt safe and private even with other guest above .

Nice place to stay

The house was nice! It was very convenient to reach the beach. The only complaint is the people above were loud. However, this is not something that the owner could control. The overall stay was really nice!
