This location is perfect! Walking distance to the pier and the beach and restaurants…just can’t beat it! Everything was comfortable and clean. As long as you don’t mind a few steps to get to the 2nd floor, it’s a great place to stay. If I have any complaints, it would just be the lack of parking available, but we made due. ##### Erin M.

Great location, very close to the beach and pier. Cute and well decorated home. Comfortable for our family of 4! We will definitely be back. :) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2023 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### K S. 25 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Had a 4th of July weekend with the girls! My cousin and sister stayed with me and we had such a nice time. I think this would be idyllic for vacations because the beach is literally a block away-- It was seriously so nice to just walk back to the house and not feel like it was a trek. One caveat is that it can be loud on weekends (like 4th of july) so be mindful of that and bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper :) Had a lovely time and would book again. ##### K S.

Stay here you will not be disappointed! ##### LONDA Z.
