Beautiful and relaxing!

The property is right on the beach with beautiful views of the water. It was so very quiet and relaxing. We had a family bbq and everything we needed was available from propane for the grill to large bowls. I would definitely stay here again! It is the perfect place for a family retreat.

Good Ladies Getaway

The gorgeous view and privacy made for a lovely stay. The house could have used a once over cleaning wise, but we were very comfortable and really appreciated the water filter. The internet was out the whole stay, but we had good cell service. Definitely would stay again.

Great location and house.

This is our second year visiting this VRBO and it fits our needs perfectly. The kitchen is huge and pretty well stocked. The BBQ grill works great. We loved having a washer and dryer to use. The beds are comfortable with lots of extra bedding if needed. We love the huge long table for dinners, games and puzzles. The house is located down and long drive so we feel safe hanging out in the yard with our street stupid dogs. The view of the water is delightful.Hope to stay again next year!
