Unforgettable experience!!

Highly recommend this amazing little home!! It was spotless, had everything we could possibly need! Eric & Robin were very easy to reach for anything we had questions about and so very nice!!! It was easy to check in and out. There was plenty to do close to the home but you are out of the noisy places. They even personalized our stay with a welcome sign for us and our pups along with treats for them. I will definitely be recommending to friends and we will most definitely be going back. Such a beautiful part of the world. I also forgot my makeup bag and my straightener and they are sending it to me Monday. Such great people to rent from. Check them out!!

Amazing Property!

We loved our stay here! The house was super clean and quiet. The host, Robin, is amazing. We had an issue getting into the house initially (our door code didn't work), and before I could contact her, she had already remotely unlocked the door to let us in, and called me so we could resolve the problem! There were lots of little touches that made this a great place to stay: fresh flowers on the table, dog treats for our dog, snacks for us, and even extra toiletries in case we forgot something. This house is about 15-20 minutes away from the beach - close to everything, but far enough away where it was super quiet and relaxing. I would definitely stay here again!!
