Lovely family spot

We really enjoyed our stay! The house is just a short walk to the beach, as well as a really cool historic fort the kids enjoyed exploring and learning about. The house was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed relaxing in the house, playing games, and using the fire pit and yard for playtime. Kayaks, beach toys and whiffle balls/bats were a bonus!

Beach/Coastal access

The stay was great. We were in town for a festival taking place close by. Walk to beach even though it was fall. Peaceful and quiet. Property managers were very helpful and responsive to questions.
