Get away for a weekend

It was very nice and clean. We have a 91 yo father that still gets around better than some of us, lol. Being in walking distance to beach was nice also. I would stay here again. Loved it!

Labor Day Weekend

Adequate accommodations. Property was a short walk to the beach. Dated furnishings and kitchen not well stocked to be able to cook a meal. Also, we were not left with enough paper products for our stay.
