Very comfortable house. It is a short walk to the beach.- Tonya B , Posted: 03/08/2019
This particular property is wonderful for families looking to spend confirms quality time together. The house is spacious ( even more so than it shows in the pictures) and was very confortable for 8-10 of us as well as additional family that meet us for the day and had dinner with us here. The house is well stocked of kitchen appliances and the snow deck spaces and plenty of parking were great bonuses. The house is a very short straight shot to the water for plenty of enjoyment.- Ryann C , Posted: 12/03/2018
This home had a very warm, home feeling. It had everything we needed. Well stocked and planned out for renters.- Dyltrid H , Posted: 06/29/2018

Great location. AC on main level had trouble cooling during late afternoon. The "hot" shower handle in master bath not functioning properly. Insects in ground floor bathroom a nuisance. These are minor things. Overall experience was good.- Dennis C , Posted: 10/09/2017We are glad you enjoyed your stay!

I liked the layout and general convenience of the property.
