What Guests Are Saying
“Very nice house looked exactly like the photos. We really enjoyed the waterfront access and the peaceful neighborhood. There was also a great restaurant less than a mile away. Highly recommend would stay here again.”
“This place was amazing! Location was impeccable! The only problem we had was at night there is a floodlight on the house and the neighbors house that shines into one of the bedroom windows so it was hard for my kids to go to sleep. Besides that no complaints. Would stay here again.”
“Very helpful and responsive. Beautiful home. There were 7 of us and it was just the right size.”
“We loved the location of this Airbnb. The mornings spent on the deck were rejuvenating. We used the recommendations list many times and even got discounts on local vendors. Thank you!”
“Our trip was short, but this home was absolutely perfect for our family of 8! The location was so peaceful and relaxing—literally, all you could hear was the sound of the water, which made the whole stay feel incredibly serene. Even with a little bit of rain, we were able to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and the peaceful atmosphere. The kitchen was great and had everything we needed, and the outdoor space was wonderful for spending time together as a family. Overall, it was a comfortable, beautiful, and tranquil place to stay. We would definitely love to come back for a longer visit!”
“Very nice house for a weekend getaway very spacious back deck for fishing plenty of sleeping space for the family”
“We really enjoyed our stay. Sunrises on the deck were amazing. We caught several fish. We made a lovely spaghetti dinner one night. It was wonderful being so close to the beach. Only thing we were missing was can opener.”
