The place has potential but it so so dirty and one of the beds smell like sour linen. The coach was full toenails/fingernails and pet hair. The coach is terrible and feels like you are sitting on wood. The bathroom needs work and the entire house needs a deep cleaning. I almost was not able to stay due to it being so dirty. If it was clean and had a clean couch it would have been a good stay. View was nice and the spot was peaceful.

Cozy beach getaway

We enjoyed this quaint little gem so much! The owner was great to work with. The property and home were in great condition. We loved being just steps away from the beach which was great with little ones that need frequent breaks! I Absolutely would rent it out again!
