We were going out fishing on one of the charter boats and the house was right on the dock! The deck overlooking the water was excellent for watching boats, dolphins and the USCG!

Really enjoyed our stay here, prime location walking distance to several of the better bars and restaurants in town. Unit was well stocked and served us well for the weekend. Really a huge plus to have 2 dedicated parking spots. The only negative would be the 6-7am wake up call from the Coast Guard station PA system, and the light from what I’m guessing is a smoke detector in the bedroom was too bright.

Having two dedicated parking spots is definitely a bonus, and we’re glad it added to the convenience of your stay.
We appreciate your feedback about the early wake-up from the Coast Guard station and the brightness of the smoke detector light. Your input is invaluable, and we’ll certainly look into addressing these concerns to enhance the comfort for future guests.
It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back again for another memorable stay! Safe travels!
