We had a great time and it was very relaxing at the beach cabin. The only setback was the weather. We will definitely stay here again in the future.
Shell station is the best year after year we come back and make a lifetime of memories!

Great Weekend
The house was perfect for our group of 6. The kids loved the murphy twin beds. Quiet neighborhood with easy, close beach access. The house was very clean and had everything you needed for a relaxing vacation. We would definitely stay here again.
