Second Time is Another Charm!!

Stayed here last summer and again this summer. Highly recommend and hope to be back next summer. Communication with Owner/Manager and local team were great. Location (North Strand) has a great vibe to it. It’s also well-equipped. There were only two of us and we used the Murphy bed in the living room. It was comfortable and you can hear the ocean all night. We find the bedroom small and a little claustrophobic so would be tough for more than two for us. Thanks for another great time!!

Great location

I did a review somewhere else. But location was great. Did not care for the bedroom, too small. But the Murphy bed worked out nicely. But windows, windowsills, vents, etc. need cleaning.

Mini vaca

Very cozy. Relaxing and easy access to beach. Spending most of our time on the porch. Loved hearing the roars and sound of the ocean in the early morning.
