Charming!

This little house was adorable and just right for two couples. We loved that we could walk to town and you can even walk to the ocean, if you want a long walk. The kitchen was well appointed and we were so happy to find that there is a half bath in addition to the full (we were ready to grin and bear sharing one bath for a long weekend). The TV remote was a little hard to figure out. Overall, very comfortable and cute as can be. And the location cannot be beat!

Weekend getaway

Enjoyed a nice getaway weekend with our pup. The inside of the house was as advertised, very cute and clean, and the location in town was great, however, the curb appeal and yard definitely needed a lot of love.

Great cozy getaway

Stayed here with 2 of my friends for a cozy girls weekend. We loved it! Such a great location — walking distance from the main street and plenty of parking. Also just a few minutes drive from the beach. We cooked dinner in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoyed the hot tub. Highly recommend!
