About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

“The Almost” A dog friendly, beach getaway

“The Almost” is a bright and comfy house with every amenity from the kitchen to the yard. Relax and enjoy the beach, just a six minute walk. Then relax on the screened porch for dinner. The backyard is fully fenced to keep the dogs safe. Everything is here from the grill to the towels. Bring your toothbrush, shampoo, and come enjoy.

There are beach chairs, beach tent, fishing gear, boogie boards, coolers and many other items for your use in the shed. There is a private outdoor shower to get the sand off. There are usually two to five bikes in the shed. There are games, cards, guitar, and TV's in all the bedrooms and living room. All televisions have access to regular channels and streaming services. There is a wire dog kennel and baby gate for your use. There is a propane grill and charcoal grill.

Everything, and I mean everything, is a short walk away in this quiet neighborhood. There are restaurants, bars, grocery store, ice cream, liquor store, fishing pier, boat ramp, and of course THE BEACH.

There is no cleaning, pet, or linen fee. We only ask that barking outside is kept down when the pooches are outside.
