The home was fantastic. It had everything we needed plus! Location was perfect for walking to downtown. The home also had everything needed to cook for a family even more than most rental homes. Loved the historic style and furnishings in the home. I will definantly choose this one again. They had lights on as we arrived after dark. Love, Love, Love

This property is very well located near downtown and beach/shore area. Easy to find parking in town and many good choices for both shopping and dining. (Including a French restaurant with great water views) The property was very well maintained and stocked. We went during a heat advisory and the AC kept us nice and cool. The screened in back sunroom was very comfortable and as the house, had clean modern furniture. I highly recommend!!
