I stayed two nights to gain easy access to the beach without going far from my home nearby. Fun idea! The bed was comfortable, the bathroom is very nice, The living area is pretty with a great table and four chairs. Tv is well set up. The Kitchen is ok, no ice machine, so be prepared. My only critique would be to have that one cupboard filled with a nicer assortment of dishes and especially glassware instead of looking like it was collected from someone’s leftovers. The host, Jeff, is 100% attentive when needed! ##### Kim R.
