Perfect for our annual family trip

The property exceeded all expectations. The location was a short walk from the beach and an easy drive to downtown. The best part was the view from the deck of the fireworks display at the beach on NYE!

Great Beach House!

This house worked great for our Thanksgiving family gathering of 11 people spanning 3 generations. Easy access to the beach was key and when the weather turned we enjoyed the protected pool and hot tub area. The third story main floor has a spacious and inclusive open floor plan with great decks and peeks of ocean views.
