Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Jul 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Vacation getaway Very clean and well equipped house. I chose this rental due to the pet friendly feature, but was constantly on edge as there are no secure areas for them to play. I wished they had either a fenced in yard or a gate closing off the second story deck. Once out, an extremely dangerous highway is directly across the street. I recommend bringing a baby gate. Young children would also benefit from this additional safety net. Plenty of sleeping areas. Nice comfortable king beds, but if steps are a problem for anyone in your party it could prove difficult. Both getting the dogs out or going to lower level bedrooms.Those steps are very narrow and steep. Location is great. It’s right on a nice clean and quiet beach. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karen S.
