Beautiful location, gorgeous beach, well stocked supplies, including firewood for fireplace and fire pit. We truly appreciated having everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The bathrooms were very nice and it was so helpful to have a well stocked kitchen for cooking. The owner makes guests feel very welcome. We loved the sunrise and moonrises and long walks on the beach.

Much needed R & R after 2 major knee replacement surgeries
Loved the location, seclusion & peaceful tranquility. Very well maintained property and thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the deck, listening to the waves and chillaxing. Hubby said if this place ever went for sale to keep us in mind. We loved it that much.
