Our house as my 17 year old said was like the house the movie the Notebook! Tucked away on a quiet street and o secluded. House was clean. Hosts were so responsive when we had a quick question. While it wasn’t on the beach it took no time to get to the beach the brewery and the grocery store. We had so much fun. We are looking at coming back next summer and almost 100 percent sure to this house. Might be our new favorite vacation house! ![Grilling and chilling with the puppy who absolutely was in heaven! ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9a5616a0-1273-4564-950d-dd984f962838-1749938671063.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Wine time on the back porch! ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/73e43de5-8fca-4f4e-a656-21201b5ad45a-1749938669960.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lindsay T.

Not much around the area beside your basic shopping strip which was very convenient. The beach was about a 10 min drive and very nice there, family friendly; not overcrowded and nice shops! The owner communicated effectively and in a timely manner to any questions I asked and was very nice. It is an older home so you shouldn’t go with a mindset that everything will be perfect and modern! Some things could use a bit of work around the home of course and some cleaning. The only things that were not okay for me was upon arrival, the linens for the bedrooms/towels were all on the laundry floor and we had to wash them ourselves. There were 6 of us and they only supplied 1 washcloth which was very upsetting! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c6370ec1-a5ec-4060-b412-9264591b42c6-1753189706523.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Jaquese G.
