Loved our stay!! Close to the beach (we drove, so a short drive but parking is super easy and lots of free parking). I loved that they had beach stuff, umbrella and sand toys for the kids! It was so nice to not have to go out and purchase. The house was clean, the beds were comfy!

Our stay was so relaxing. Everything we needed was there and it was only a few minutes' walk to the beach. We enjoyed a quiet night by the fire and relaxed on the back patio with the lights listening to music. It was a perfect spot for a getaway. We brought our dog and the fenced in back yard was perfect for him. Everything was very clean and so comfortable! We definitely plan to stay here again! If you want a cozy quiet place to stay this is it!
