We absolutely love staying here in this area and this unit in particular was very nice . We only stayed for one night this time but It had everything you need from cooking utensils to swimming stuff and fishing gear . Would definitely book again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was exactly as described. Plenty of activities to enjoy and everything on the property was very well maintained. Even though it was memorial weekend, it was very quiet and laid back. We will definitely be back.
Maybe uodata the lay out. But i'm not picking it was exactly what I paid for

Great location
We loved the property of LIttle Harbor. The unit was a bit outdated in furniture and bed linens, we didn't expect that. It could benefit from a redo of the layout and remove some unnecessary old furniture. Many wires and extension cords and power bars in the unit, and an old PacMan game took up valuable space...the drapes were torn. Overall, clean. Front yard across the parking lot is nice. Beach is really nice, the two restaurants on property were good. Many people in the communication process between Vrbo, Vacasa, and a lady locally. That was sometimes frustrating.
