New home built in Oct 2021! On a quiet, residential street, never worry about being surrounded by party-goers. The streets safe for bike riding and walking, far enough away from the center of town, but close enough to be a 10-min drive to the conveniences. Drive (2-3 min) or walk (10-15min) to the quietest part of the beach where you can see both the splendid sunrises and the stunning sunsets. The home is stocked with all basic amenities down to the bath towels, bed linens, cleaning supplies, paper products and even condiments in the refrigerator. Open, spacious floor plan, cozy living area, and quaint bedrooms for your time away from the beach. Puzzles, books, games, wi-fi, and TV's in every bedroom for your entertainment. Even a cute little "leave a book, take a book" box on the walk to the beach. Bedroom 1, the master, includes a King bed and double vanity, with a double head shower larger than you can imagine! Bedroom 2, with a Queen bed includes a dresser to unpack all those clothes and feel like you actually live there rather than living out of a suitcase. Bedroom 3, with 2 double beds allows for those who like to share a room sleep-over style. Bathrooms: both contain towels, basic soaps/shampoos and select toiletries in case you forget what you need, or simply to lighten your load when packing. The master includes a HUGE shower with two shower heads! The front porch and the back screened-in porch make for great conversation, book reading, enjoying cocktails or just winding down. Below the house, aside from plenty of parking, there is a gas grill, a Blackstone flat top griddle, and an electric smoker available for responsible use. There is also an outdoor shower for rinsing off all that extra beach sand. Paid parking is required at all beach lots.

The home was fully stocked with everything we could have possibly needed—plenty of towels, beach accessories, shampoo and conditioner, even games for some family fun. The location was ideal—just minutes from everything we wanted to do and see.The hosts were fantastic with communication—responsive, friendly, and incredibly helpful from start to finish. It made the entire experience feel seamless and stress-free.I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a beach escape, and I absolutely can’t wait to come back again. One of the best vacation rentals we’ve ever stayed in! ##### Rachel F.
