Great location and family friendly!
Loved the location of the house, easy access to beach. Accross the street is a great marina/bar and down the road about 4 miles you will find a great mexican restaurant! House was clean - only thing I would be aware of is the first guest bedroom has the vent from dryer going into closet, really heating the room up. Other than that, was a great experience!

We enjoyed the stay! The house is in a great location with beach front view! Just wish the downstairs outdoor area had a deck or concrete area to hangout.

Great stay at the Salty Dog
This is a great home just steps from the beach. We had family in from Pittsburgh and they absolutely loved we were directly on the beach. The owner was quick to answer questions. We would be happy to rent this home again.

Great house
There were three adults, five teenagers and a six year old in our group. Everyone loved the house. It was super clean, easy to get to, wonderful location on the beach and had everything we needed. The door took us a minute to figure out (because it’s new and amazing lol) and the parking was a little confusing at first (since the notes said not to park under the house) but all in all, we loved our beach vacation and this house was a huge part of the reason why.

Excellent vacation home for our family of 6. Everyone enjoyed the tv’s in each room, beautiful decor, proximity to the powder sand beach and kitchen complete with everything a family needs to cook and eat in. Host was informative and accessible.

Incredible Stay
We loved having a couple of days of peace and quiet steps from the ocean. The home was spotless and so comfortable. We got to experience a storm one night of our stay and the thunder outside made it feel even more cozy. The bed was great, appliances were new, and all the finishes felt so elevated. Can't wait to return.
