This is our fifth time staying at Sheilah’s place, and every time the house is even nicer than the last time. Sheilah’s cleanliness and attention to detail are second to none, and I never cease to be amazed at how she is always upgrading the place in both big and small ways.

I decided to take my adult children on a mini vacation for some family bonding time. This was the perfect place, we loved everything about this house. It was perfect, very accommodating and so close to everything. The owner's recommendations were spot on. We enjoyed time at the beach during the day and game time and movies at night. Do yourself a favor and stay here for getaway.
