It's location to the Boardwalk and Beach is only steps away. Relax on the two spacious screened in porches. Enjoy the outdoor shower and spacious 6 ft tall fenced in backyard with firepit. The cozy open floor plan is spacious for cooking and gathering in one large room. What we love about this place is the charm and proximity to the beach, allowing families to create lasting memories.
