This little home is so cute. The kids loved the built-in beds! I appreciated the small details like having aluminum foil and ziplock bags. I have stayed at a lot of rentals and this one was great. We caught lots of fish off the dock and enjoyed the Cherry Street Market in town. Communication was great as well.
