It is so clean, updated, and welcoming that we could truly feel that we were being trusted with someone's well loved and very well maintained home. The bedrooms are a generous size and more than comfortably slept our family of 4. Extras like kayaks and beach badges in a very nautical themed home and back yard made it feel like a resort steps away from the beach and restaurants. We highly reccomend this property and these amazing hosts! ##### Briana O.
