Overall this house met our needs as place for a quick breakfast and an evening landing spot. Very convenient to the quaint town and grocery store.

This was a perfect little getaway spot, 5 minutes from the beach. Mathews is a great little town with fantastic restaurants and people. The home has everything you need and the owner responds quickly to questions. She also owns/operates the Chinese restaurant in town about two minutes away. We tried that as well and it was wonderful! Would definitely recommend both the VRBO home and the restaurant. :)
