We can’t say enough about our stay! Close to everything we could need or want! We enjoyed lunch and dinner out, grabbed Boba on our way to do some shopping, had a great run at Robinson preserve and popped over to the beach in a matter of minutes! The house is clean and very comfortable, we had everything we needed to cook and bake a birthday cake for our daughter. Our kids loved fishing off the dock and swimming in the pool. We will definitely be back!

Annual beach vacation

The Salty Dog was perfect for our 4 teenage boys and 2 dogs. We could easily bike to the beach and several restaurants. The house was well equipped with all the amenities needed to fix meals at home. A great time was had by all.
