Great Getaway
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay despite a Tropical Storm rolling through. There were great views of the ocean from the house and everything was easily accessible. The beds were super comfy too! Would so rent again!

Great clean little place!
This was a clean little place. Set up was great for 5 of us...3 adults and 2 kids. Beach chairs and towels included was great plus. Nice new appliances and ample seating. Could've used more hooks or towel bars but minor. Neighbors were quiet and beach access close. Thank you!
