Our family loved this house! Great view of beach and 200 yards from toes in sand. Walking distance to shops and food. Not a huge selection, but nice. House was comfortable and nicely decorated.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time in Jax at this spot. Walked to the beach just right across the street and enjoyed our relaxation there. The condo has everything we needed and although rather small, it was laid out nicely, clean and had everything we needed.

Great Location, adorable house!
The location was wonderful, right across from the beach! The house was very neat and decorated so nicely. The only issue was the door in the hall to the secondary bedroom didn't stay shut so we had to put something in front of it at night and more coffee cups would be great. Over all we would definitely stay again.

Charming Beach Cottage
This house fit my wife and me and our two labs perfectly. The second floor flat has a cozy living room and ocean view deck for easy relaxation. The back access to the fenced in backyard was perfect for our dogs. The yard has tables, chairs and a fire pit for great outdoor use. Having bikes for beach rides was a plus! The beach access is just across the street through the public access parking lot. The kitchen had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again.
