Great Place!

We loved staying in this beautiful house so close to the beach! There were 10 girls for our girls trip and it was perfect. The only thing we were missing were some measuring cup/spoons and a few kitchen items. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great Beach House!

Beautifully decorated, and the location can’t be beat! The house is located literally steps away from the beach entrance. We loved being able to bike to Seaside and Watercolor. Many restaurants and shopping options nearby. Our family had a great time!

Seaside Stay

This was in the perfect location & it was such a cute home. The perfect beach vibe. All of us absolutely loved the house and said we would come back. My only complaint is when we went to do laundry, the washing machine smelled very mildewy, as I know that is common with front load washers. Overall, we had an amazing time here.
