Perfect vacation spot

I treated my adult kids and my grand babies to a beach trip. This was the perfect place! Hosts were quick to respond, very accomodating, and the pool was amazing! The home had everything you could possibly need. And it WAS a quick 300 steps to the beach. We hope to return!

Great house with plenty of space and great location

This was our first time visiting this area as we were trying to get away from the crowds and just relax, enjoy the beach and spend time with family. I was unsure at first with the house not being directly on the beach however we were so pleasantly surprised. The house was exactly as described. Lots of space, very clean and had everything that we needed. The fenced in back yard with the pool was perfect. And…. Our fur babies loved it as well. It was actually less than 300 steps to the beach for me( yes I counted), it only took just a few minutes to get to the beach and there was great access to walk to it. Wayne and Victoria was excellent to work with and made sure and everything was taken care of. We definitely plan on coming back!

Great overall

This property is pretty cool and within a short walk to the beach. The pool was great and we enjoyed the fenced in backyard for our pups. The bears and the garbage were a problem. We picked up trash every day we were there and it added an unexpected element to our trip. I feel like it's a pretty big ask for renters to pick up trash daily, spray it with ammonia, etc when bear proof cans could solve the issue. The sliding door off the main living area needs to be replaced. We ended up not using it mainly because it was simply too difficult for us to open and close!
