This property was immaculately clean, well supplied with toys, beach supplies and almost anything you could think of to need. Well located, walking distance to most things in town - the beach, coffee, restaurants and shopping. The hosts were very responsive to questions. Would love to go back.
This is the second time we have stayed here. Oth times it has been everything its advertised to be. We enjoyed our stay here and will stay herre in the future if possible. Five stars!
The property managers were terrific and very responsive. The pictures on the listing didn't do the property justice, the property was bigger than the pictures showed. Very short walk to the beach and everything. We never had to get in our cars. The kids loved the train ride! I would recommend this property to anyone who is looking for a casual family beach experience!
So much fun! Quaint house, close to beach and activities!
Loved the little, yet spacious, red beach house! Clean, comfortable and so close to the beach and shops in town. Wine & coffee & smore ingredients awaited us!
The best part about the stay was all the amenities. Communication was great. Will book again.
Amazing place to stay; so close to the beach and pet friendly. I will definitely be back!
My family with 3 generations aged 1-70 had a fantastic time at this beach house! My kids were thrilled with the assortment of toys and each rental since then hasn’t lived up to their expectations now as they are always wondering where all the fun stuff is! The beach access is phenomenal and you have all you need with shops nearby. Although you are in a busy area it’s never noisy. Beds are comfortable and the shower is hot! We would love to come back one day. Thanks for everything!
My teenager, Goldendoodle, and I had a fabulous time! The home was super cute and comfy with lots of little extras. We walked to the beach whenever we wanted to, especially to watch the stunning sunsets - it is so close!! Owners are so friendly and responsive. We had such a great time!
This house was perfect for my son, pups and I - it was very clean, comfortable and unique! We had a quick walk to the beach or into downtown, whichever way we went, the location is very convenient! The owners were also very great to work with, super responsive and kind. We'll definitely be vacationing to this home again, we can't wait!
