We were overwhelmed with a wonderful greeting of notes and welcome baskets for us and the dogs. The place was fully stocked with everything you need. There were dog toys, treats (even frozen dog treats in the freezer) and lots of treats for humans too. The beach is also dog friendly during certain hours of the day!

From the moment we arrived, we knew this stay was going to be special — but we truly had no idea just how special it would become.Our hosts went so far above and beyond in every possible way. They didn’t just “host” us… they welcomed us like family. The warmth, kindness, and genuine care they showed to our entire family — including our dogs — was something you simply don’t come across very often anymore.They thought of every detail to make sure we were comfortable, relaxed, and truly enjoying our vacation. It felt less like renting a place and more like being lovingly taken care of by dear friends. Their hospitality created one of the best vacations we have ever had, and that says so much.It’s rare to meet people who care this deeply and show such intentional kindness. It was refreshing, meaningful, and something we will always remember.We are beyond grateful and already looking forward to the next time we can come back.

Absolutely Amazing Stay!

This was our second stay at this property, and it was even more incredible than the first. The home is spotless, beautifully maintained, and so well stocked with everything you could possibly need—and more!Just a few steps from the beach and your toes are in the sand! Having a dog-friendly beach is such a bonus—it was perfect for early morning and afternoon walks with our sweet girl. She loved it just as much as we did!The hosts, Tracey and Gary, have truly thought of everything. From the welcome baskets for both us and our sweet pup to the thoughtful touches throughout the home, every detail made us feel completely at ease. It’s obvious they’ve poured so much love into this property.It truly is a home away from home. Do yourself a favor and check it out—you won’t be disappointed. This has become our new go-to escape from reality, and we can't wait to come back again.
