Steps from the Beach!

When you arrive you will see there is enough space to park 3 vehicles at the front of the house. Underneath the house you will see a picnic area with tables and chairs where you can enjoy a meal with the family. This will lead you to the fenced playground in the back where the kids can play safely. Also underneath the house is an outdoor, enclosed shower where you can wash the sand off your feet when returning from the beach, which is only about one minute walking distance.

You will need to walk up a flight of about 20 stairs to get to the wrap around deck area where you will be able to enjoy beautiful ocean views, as well as a soft ocean breeze. Enter the home into a roomy living room which has 2 ottoman single hide-a -beds for additional sleeping and a big screen Roku television where you can enjoy your favorite shows under your own accounts. You will also enjoy the fully equipped and updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher. As you make your way down the hall you will find the master suite has a king size bed as well as it's own bathroom and exit onto the deck. the 2nd bedroom has a queen size bed. the 3rd bedroom has 2 full size bunk beds.

Please remember that this property is on a peninsula, and is therefore surrounded by water, which means there may likely be mosquitoes, especially during summertime. We do have the property treated regularly for this but can’t guarantee that it will be mosquito free.

Perfect little getaway! The view and close beach access made it spectacular! The cleanliness was beyond my expectations being that this is a pet friendly rental. There was absolutely no indication that a dog had ever stepped into the house! Mosquitoes were there but not as bad as some of the locations we’ve stayed at in the area!! Will definitely book again!!

Beautiful home close to the beach. Clean spacious home that was very well laid out and comfortable. All of the beds were comfortable. The home has a very nice large wrap around porches that give you an ocean view from almost everywhere. Under the home is set up nicely and very spacious. The water pressure was amazing!!! They had everything needed for our stay. The fenced yard and swing set were a nice addition for us. The host Al was wonderful, commicated everything in a timely professional manner. Check in was a breeze. Extremely close to the beach on a quite area so we were able to relax and enjoy the beach and property. We will definitely book again. Thanks Al for sharing your home with us.

Good but....

The place over was nice and walking distance from the beach. Down sides..... there was only 2 towels in each bath room. The dryer did not work, which is not good when traveling with kids. The agte latch on the deck was broke

All the dishes was dirty, the bbq pit utensils had black mold on them, bugs on the dishes and draws. Other than that it was a great stay, we liked the view of the beach.

Weekend Trip!

We enjoyed our stay overall. The upstairs porch is large with a nice view of the water and lots of chairs. We brought a rolling cart to haul our stuff to the beach - which is only about 3 houses down. I liked that there was a gated area downstairs and a gate at the top of the stairs so that my dog didn’t have to be on a leash the whole time. We didn’t really sit down there, but the space below the house is pretty large. Several tables with chairs as well as a bar area to set up a nice spread. Be sure and bring anything that you might need for cooking. Also the grill was rusty so if you plan to use it, be sure and bring tinfoil. And the house is currently for sale if anyone’s looking for a rental!

Walking distance to beach

This house was perfect for a last min one night stay with my family during the kids fall break. Easy walk to the beach with a great view! We will be back. Owners were quick to respond and access to the property was easy. Great parking. Kids loved the swing set.

Perfect getaway

I was so impressed with everything about the house! Location, closeness to the beach, plenty of places for people to sit and watch the waves or the sunset. It was maybe a 2 minute walk from the house to the beach. The beds were very comfortable! I couldn’t find one thing to complain about at this house. We had so much fun here and I can’t wait to try to book for next year. Thank you to the amazing host!
