Walking Distance to the Beach and Bay!!!!

"Property was exactly as pictured and described in the listing. It was absolutely beautiful and extremely clean! My granddaughter loved the puzzles as well as the sidewalk chalk that was available. We spent every night listening to music and hung out around the gas fire pit downstairs. During the day we walked the few blocks to the beach or went into town for other activities. I highly recommend this property and we will be sure to book again in the future!"
