Cute Cottage

We were down for the weekend to visit my daughter. Location was perfect. A quick easy walk to the beach as well as quick walk to breakfast locations. House was small, but perfect size for what we needed for the weekend! Would stay again!

The Best House

Great place to stay. "The Best House", is literally the best house on the beach. This house was beautifully decorated, soo clean, fresh smelling and equipped with all the things needed for a great stay. The kitchen was stocked with multiple essentials for cooking but did not have a Keurig coffee pot . We enjoyed the large porch for evening meals and could listen to the sounds of jazz from the nearby restaurant. We felt safe and secure throughout our stay. We will definitely be returning.

Great location!

The house is in a quiet location a couple of blocks to the beach and restaurants. More than ample covered parking. There is little porch furniture so take your beach chairs. (Great porches front and back.) Prepare to go out for coffee or take your own coffee maker. (A non-functioning coffee maker is there.) The house needs lamps, and one bathroom has nowhere to put anything - not deal breakers and we made do with some creativity. The front door keypad was interesting at first; we got in thanks to YouTube.
