Great family vacation home

Our family had a wonderful holiday getaway. The house was perfect and walking distance to the beach. Don’t recommend for small children as there are steep steps in the home.

Comfortable family space

This was the perfect house for our family gathering. The house was has a well equipped kitchen, lots of seating area for great conversation, and a beautiful dining table for many to sit around. Being close to the park and beach makes it nice to be outdoors.

Amazing Property

The house was perfect for a weekend getaway, clean and comfortable for 4 adults and 2 teenagers, with a short walk down a pathway to the beach and a park with a play structure. The house is about 5 minutes away from coffee shops, grocery stores and restaurants. Definitely would stay here again.

Excellent Stay

We are a family of 4 adults and two children 18 month old and 7 year old … We all enjoyed our stay.. The downstairs and the main bedroom are spacious .. The layout is excellent for families .. The bedroom listed as having a queen bed was small for 2 adults and its size was like a double ..The main bedroom is large and very comfortable .. The only suggestion I have is to put a door for privacy that leads to the bathroom!The house was well stocked with kitchen appliances, utensils and cookware .. It was unexpected to have baskets of toys, games and books for children which was greatly appreciated .. The location was fantastic with a small lovely part and a short walk from the park to a quiet pretty beach…Kendall and Potter management company were very responsive and gave clear and in depth instructions .. We enjoy a return visit in the future ..
