Sep 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Quaint Salt Box Home Does the Trick This home was in an ideal location to venture out to various sites. Everything you need for your stay was there. Although the stairway going upstairs was narrow, we were aware from other reviews about it. I am over 6’ tall so the double beds weren’t ideal but we still slept well. I was already aware of the double beds before we arrived. We only had our breakfasts there so we didn’t use the kitchen for our other meals. The owner, Jeff responded quickly to a question we had. We enjoyed our stay in Clarke’s Beach. ##### Patrick C.
