Tale of the Whale
The house was perfect for our family of boys and dogs. The porch is amazing and wonderful to sit on and listen to the waves.

My Tale of the Whale
We enjoyed out time at the house. Absolutely love the location on the beach. House is outdated but very cute. House appeared clean but after the first day there, which was only half a day, the bottom of my feet were black from the dirty floor. The beds were absolutely horrendous. So uncomfortable. My husband had such a bad time with them, that he slept on the floor for the two weeks we were there.

Peaceful
Ocean view. Hardly any outside noise can be heard when inside. Sofa and chairs need up grade. Would rent again.

Great Beach House!
My family stayed at Tale of the Whale for a week and we had a great time. This home has all you need. Plenty of board games and books. No need to bring any. 4 bedrooms, 2 up and 2 down plenty of room! The kitchen is fully equipped. The view is amazing. A few suggestions and wishes. Would like to have had an outdoor grill. It doesn't have one. And the porch boards are rough, be careful where you step. Would be nice to extend the walkway out closer to the beach. Overall we loved the house and view. Hope to return again!
