Cute and cozy!

We had a great stay and the house had everything we needed! The fenced yard and outdoor shower were a big plus! We also appreciated the beach chairs, wagon, and cooler. Everyone in the area restaurants and stores were so very friendly! We also left a bag and the owner worked with us to ship the bag! We greatly appreciate her going the extra mile! Thank you for a wonderful stay!
