This was our first time renting a beach cabin And let me tell you they have set the bar pretty high. Communication with the host was very fast when I had a questions to be answered.. When we first walked through the door we were very impressed with the spaciousness and cleanliness of it. The property is in a quiet neighborhood and it was nice just to let the kids play and enjoy themselves. The kitchen was pretty well stocked with extra appliances to make cooking easier.. I would definitely recommend staying here… Pretty top-notch

We had such a great time staying at this house! Super close to the beach! We had kids ranging from 1 1/2 to 9 and it made naps and food times a breeze with the location. Having body wash and hair soap in dispensers on the wall in the shower wash genius. We’ve never had a rental with that! Overall- we’d definitely stay here again. Our friends want to make this a yearly tradition with our kids!
