The beach access is very easy - quick walk. The house is in good shape, and the accommodations were nice ##### George F.

Could use new dressers in downstairs bedrooms and an actual closet upstairs rather than an extra bed shoved into the closet space. Overall we had a great time and recommend this beach house. ##### Jennifer H. Stayed 11 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zach W. 30 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great for Large Groups Had a great time here. There’s ample beds and plenty seating. Very close to the beach. Easy walk, and dog friendly which is such a huge perk. Also a Wine Cooler! Only suggestion. If there’s anything specific you want, especially for those planning to cook a lot, rather than it just being a place to sleep, I would recommend bringing those personal items, ie specific knives, tools, hand soap and extra trash bags. ##### Zach W.
