Loved this place!
The resort is very cute and homey. The beach is amazing, and very clean. The cabin is well equipped and ready for your stay. The only issue was an address error on the listing so we got a little lost, without us knowing our cabin number was changed so that sucked. The bathroom is super tiny but manageable. Management is very responsive. We had a great time and will return!

Beautiful Beach - Rustic Cabin
We stayed in cabin #3 which is very small, especially the bathroom. We did have all the bare necessities, but not much beyond that. I now have a list of things to check the listing for and things to bring on future trips. It was clean enough to stay in, but a deep clean is necessary and the over all cleanliness needs to be improved.
The beach in front of the property is beautiful and that made the stay more bearable.
