The Harbour Master did not disappoint!!! A wonderfully styled property in a great location. We felt at home the minute we drove In. Close to the beach and lots of space for the kids to run around, there is a great outdoor entertainment area for the family to share meal time and sit back around the fire pit. The sound of the ocean sitting around the fire pit was the best way to end the day. Would highly recommend this spot for a getaway. ##### Lauren A.
