4br 2.blks to Beach! Large decks for Sun or Shade: GR8 for families & groups

Beach themed 4BR 1.5 bath a short 2 blks to the beach & restaurants! Although VRBO shows the property as a 17 minute walk to the seawall it's actually only 3.5 to 4 minutes walk straight down the street! Perfect for family or group of friends. Lots of outdoor space on the covered patio, front porch or 2nd level sun deck above the patio all with ample seating. Outdoor Shower, sink, grill & lounge chairs plus table for dining. Living, dining & Kitchen down with 1/2 bath & 4 bedrooms upstairs (K, D, Q, 2twins). Upstairs Bath with tub/shower combo. Digital keyless entry lets you in to enjoy all of this & more!

10/10, had a great time!

Beautifully designed home, offering a feeling of whimsy and adventure regardless of how far you've traveled. Cozy and well-maintained, with everything our group needed for the weekend. Nice short walk to the beach, great view from the top deck, and the outdoor showers were incredibly helpful. Would definitely stay again!
