Guest Review

by TcKoy
This house was perfect for us during the time we needed it most. We booked last-minute and communicated with the host in advance to make sure it would work for us. The host responded quickly, and we were so glad to get this place quickly! It was such a find! It was clean inside, had EVERYTHING we needed- including a gas grill which was great for us. It took us about 3 minutes to walk to the beach. The walk itself was very easy as well. The entire area was walkable and accessible and the house was right on the main street that you needed to go to for beach access. We definitely want to come back here for another beach getaway.

We were so glad to find this place during a very low time for us. It was exactly what we needed. The great space abs being so close to the beach was PERFECT.
