This townhouse was clean and well furnished. The furniture was clean and comfortable- we all got a good nights sleep. Even the garage was clean. The kitchen had everything we needed and the host was quick to respond.

Layout of the home is great. Nice open area for kitchen, dining and living space. Fantastic outside view of ocean to not be an oceanfront property. Quality outside furniture! Challenging to get over the rocks to the beach. Suggest you go down to Periwinkle public access to avoid rocks. Beach is narrow so get out early to grab your spot.

Great Space

Great place to stay with family. Large bedrooms with sizable bathrooms. Kitchen stocked with necessary cookware and utensils. Not as clean as I would expect. Found good under beds and behind tables. Owner was easy to contact and quick to respond. I would have liked to have more information about beach access including entrance to beach not easily accessible to most. We had to navigate large boulders with grandparents, children and a wagon with beach supplies.

Wonderful House

We had a wonderful time at the beach and really enjoyed the house. Great location, plenty of space for our family including the dogs, the house was clean upon arrival and had everything needed, sheets, towels, etc. Walking to the beach was a breeze. Thank you for letting us use your amazing place at the beach. Look forward to staying again next year!!
