Small and cute little place. No complaints aside from the kitchen table. It was REALLY worn and it was wobbly. We used the welcome card that was on the table as a wedge at the bottom to make it more stable while we stayed there. Unfortunately the beach water was still too cold when we stayed there for those few days so we didn't get to enjoy the beach as much. Luckily they had their Cherry Festival that week. We would book again.

Great location, only drawback at all is road noise but since we live in a large city we're used to that. Loved the beach! Perfect small bungalow for those looking to spend all day at the beach and then be able to walk to several good restaurants!

Small quaint place
Check in was easy. The place was very clean and well stocked. The property has a nice beach area. I don’t realize how small space was. It is on a very busy road and other tenants were out in parking lot talking and could be heard inside along with loud bass cars after 11pm. Also noted smell of recreational substance waffling in the bungalow. Not really ideal environment for children as they struggled to sleep with all the noise. We were in number 1 so closest to road.
