Great house and location for a beach getaway

We enjoyed our stay at this house. The beach decor was great, and it had all the necessities for your stay. The location was terrific. Sitting on the front porch each morning and evening taking in the view of the sound was very relaxing.

Perfect getaway

Very cute house, well appointed, w a spectacular view of the sound. The weather did not cooperate much of the time but that didn’t stop us from chillin’ on the deck and drinking in the beauty of Mother Nature. It was just a short walk to the beach w easy access. Our stay far exceeded our expectations. Many thanks to the wonderful host. 😎

Beautiful home away from home

My group of coworkers had a week of vacation from work and very short notice found this beautiful property. Jennifer was extremely kind and very helpful during the booking process, and also gave us plenty of recommendations of things to do on the island. The house was nothing short of a beach getaway, with lovely and clean rooms, themed decor, and some amenities to get us started (toilet paper, cleaning products, etc.) The maps provided were super easy to follow and was a very quick walk to the beach. We were also able to see fireworks on the 4th of July right from the front porch which was a huge plus! 10/10 would definitely recommend this stay!
