Stayed with a group for my 50th. We had an amazing time and barely left the property because we were entertained with all the amenities. Kristy went above snd beyond to accommodate us and very very responsive. I cant wait to stay again. One of my best airbnb experiences!

This place is perfect! We loved the pool/hot tub and outdoor seating area. The house had everything we needed and more. The little downtown area was cute and the recommended restaurants were great.

We were worried that the photos were too good to be true… but it IS as good as it looks in the listing, if not better. Not only is the house beautifully decorated it is very well appointed with vacationers in mind (hooks, bath towels in the room, blackout curtains, beach towels, etc.). Booked the house for the pool on premise (which was so nice and kid friendly) but when stormy weather came, no one was unhappy going inside since the house continued to provide a space for entertainment and fun with the game room, playroom, and basement areas. We hope to make this house a repeat location for our family next summer.

This house was amazing for our big family with children of different ages ! It had something for everyone. The outdoor space was fantastic! We enjoyed the pool, hot tub and outdoor dining space- even watched the World Cup from the hot tub!! Even though we were in a neighborhood, it felt private. It was a short walk to a couple of small beaches. The game room was so much fun. The house was beautifully decorated, well stocked and enough room for 13 of us. We really enjoyed our family time in this amazing home- even saw some deer roam through.
