Besides nature, the area has a great selection of excellent restaurants, breweries, shops, casinos, and numerous local wineries.

Great location, relaxing trip

The property is hard to be certain about from the pictures, but rest assured, it's perfect and the pictures don't do it justice. This is a clean, roomy place in a perfect location - close to beach and the backyard is adjacent to a small park with playground. Cute little town; winter or summer, you can't go wrong.

We had a wonderful time! House is clean, fun and close to the beach.

My friends and I had a lovely time celebrating a quarantine 30th birthday! Was nice to get away from the city for a bit and this house was a great fit! The house was stocked with all the kitchen supplies we needed to make great meals and we had a lovely short walk down to the water. Thanks for the great escape!
