Wonderful!

This was the second time my daughter and I stayed at this perfectly located home. It was comfortable and clean with an inviting front porch that we took advantage of all three days. We walked to the beach, downtown and to the farm market.

Perfect location!

Great size for a group of 5 (2 kiddos) and could not have had a better location! Adorable home, only wish they had shower supplies as we came unprepared since all the other stays came with these items. But the place was nice and clean and we loved the stpry about it and the old home feel.

Wonderful Weekend

My daughter and I spent a wonderful weekend at this lovely home within walking distance to the beach and only a couple blocks from downtown. We explored the area, enjoyed the front porch in the evening and did a lot of walking. One improvement to make it even better would be to add a couple reading lamps to the living room.

Good stay

Overall this was a good place to stay. Check-in was easy, the neighborhood the home is in felt safe, and it was conveniently close to the downtown area. The amenities were pretty good. Though, it would be helpful if there were things like salt, pepper, plastic wrap, and tin foil. Also, the Keurig wouldn't turn on, even after pressing the reset button. But, there are places in town you can get coffee (and good things to go with it) like Crescent Bakery or L'Chayim Delicatessen. The local host contact forwarded my email to the homeowner, and thankfully the homeowner was responsive and he forwarded my email to Evolve (the company managing the home), but Evolve didn't respond to me. However, the home is beautiful and the stay was peaceful and thoroughly enjoyable.
