The house is in a great location and it is a short walk to the nearest beach access. The house has been remodeled recently and it is well appointed with lots of extras to keep you busy (books, puzzles, etc.). It is a duplex, but you never hear any noise from the adjacent unit. I would definitely return to this house.

This was a nice condo close to the beach. The family room was great with skylights in it and the area under the house had lots of space to hang out outside and play games. Parking was an issue; driveway was severely flooded and neighbors said it never really drains out. This was ok but my elderly parents had a hard time getting in and out and had to find parking on the street. That could be an issue in the summer when parking is at a premium. Overall, I would stay here again but maybe not with older guests.
