The house was very accommodating & in a great location. Only concern was Coffee Maker did not work but it encouraged us to go out to some amazing restaurants. The pictures on line are not the same house but the house was great! Thank you for a great weekend yo celebrate my friends wedding!

Overall, I was very happy with our stay. The house was located near lots of things. We had most everything we needed there. However, when I booked it was listed as dog friendly but when I inquired about bringing my fur baby, the add magically changed. I even had a screen shot with proof that it was listed that way and they wouldn’t honor it.

Really cute place. The only thing that was not so good. For a dog friendly place the back yard had stickers which we kept taking out of our dogs paws.

It was a cute place and location was great but it had issues. Washer was broken and dishwasher didn't work. Customer service wasn't very helpful.

Washing machine didn’t work and with sand from the beach we were unable to clean our clothes. Very inconvenient if we stayed longer. We made due despite the inconvenience. The house was not very clean and their were ants all over the kitchen. The location was convenient but that’s about it. Stickers all over the backyard easily attaching to the kids and being brought in. I would not recommend this place.
