Our rental was beautiful! Newly renovated and the decor was a perfect mix of beachy and modern. The space was very clean upon arrival. Contacted the host a couple times during our stay and received quick responses. We would definitely rent this home again!

A little family time

It was clean and comfortable. I loved how quick of a walk it was to the beach. The AC units were a plus. It was very hot the days that we stayed. I would stay again.

Great location to beach with views of the marsh. Beds were comfortable. Washer and dryer were a plus. Nice to have our dog with us on vacation. Appreciated the AC/Fan unit in each bedroom. Family room was a nice place to watch movies. Parking space was a bonus as it is hard to get a place with enough parking. House is in need of updating though. Views from Decks were nice but only had plastic furniture.

Extremely clean, beautifully decorated, perfect location to the beach and town. Easy parking for 4-5 cars. Updated mini split AC system that kept us cool during a heat wave! Great spot for a family vacation with multiple places to dine indoors and out. Perfect touches like complimentary toiletries and kitchen appliances/ tools. We had a wonderful stay and plan on coming back!
