A charming hide-away....

Ed's place is a perfect spot to enjoy Plum Island - close to town, to the beach and to the Reserve. It's cozy and charming. We very much enjoyed our time there and hope to return soon.

This was a perfect beach getaway for our long weekend. We were looking for a place within walking distance to the beach. It is basically an efficiency apartment, not fancy but well furnished, comfortable and quiet. Ed is a great host and we will be back!
