Wonderful Stay!
Aside from a small shower with low water pressure (not a huge deal to us) we loved our stay here! It was great for us and our two pups who also loved it! Small but efficient and has all you need! We will be back :)

Older property
The property was very small even for two of us. It was functional yet not comfortable. You have to look hard to find the charm. There were many issues I took pictures of as we got there. For the price paid I expected a nicer facility. Even an older property can be updated. Parking was almost non exist. I will however, end with a positive, the location was close to town and beach.
