Stayed for 3 nights. Perfect spot for a couple. Well decorated and very clean.
What a great spot to be close to everything and still wake up to the marsh. It was a glorious few days.

A great vacation experience in a perfect location. Charming home with the most comfortable bed we have slept in in a vacation rental. Beautiful morning sunlight in the bedroom-lovely windows! Very short walk to the harbor and beach. Nice little porch for a morning coffee or tea and afternoon cocktail. Very attentive and helpful staff.

This was a great place for my wife and I. Cozy and beachy. The loft had a ladder access so it would be good for a child old enough to be safe on a ladder.
