This house is well located within 2 1/2 blocks from the beach and is very close to the peer as well as the ‘commercial district’ on the island.

Perfect little vacation house

Well maintained and fully equipped property that is walking distance from the beach and pier! It was perfect and we enjoyed our stay! I can’t forget to mention the awesome balcony that was perfect for star gazing and relaxing while listening to the waves crash!

This property was fine for our purpose. Even though the property is dated and basic, it was not too far from the beach access and fairly close to local establishments (grocery stores and restaurants).

Great location! The door lock didn’t work (wrong code?), the stove had several burners out, and there were dirty dishes put away as clean. Older house but otherwise clean.

Property was fine. The stove top did not work...only 1 burrner (a small one) sort of worked. It would not get hot enough to boil water. Perhaps some updated linens n towels would help. Great location to the ocean.

Had an appliance issue pretty early in the stay which was taken care of in a timly manner. Matt was very responsive and very helpful. I would stay again. If your a dog person then you will love the house as it has characteristics of a dog owners home. You have to stay to see what I mean.

Awesome location-Perfect porch

Great location for 2-6 people (3 bedrooms/2bath) and dogs with easy access to the beach, grocery stores, and shops. Fantastic deck to greet the morning sun and relax and look at the stars at night. Host included linens and towels which was a big plus. So grateful to find an affordable house that is walking distance to the beach that allows pets.

Location was great and it allowed us to bring our dogs. The house itself was not. Felt dirty as soon as we arrived. One of the beds had a huge stain on the sheet. We were told we could find a clean sheet in the closet, but it didn’t fit well. The ceiling plaster was chipping away and crumbling. The freezer door wouldn’t stay closed. Some of the burners on the range only worked part of the time. When a cockroach appeared coming out of the recliner, we knew we were in for a long week. Disappointed with the condition of the house.
