Positive Review

5 star…….0ne suggestion for property owners for safety……be extra careful when going out the door to go up the spiral staircase. One has a tendency to be looking DOWN at the boardwalk to avoid stepping off and you can get a pretty hard knock on the head, as the spiral staircase is CLOSE to the front door. We finally hung a plastic bag on the staircase as a warning. A pool noodle could be mounted at head level on the staircase corner. You MAY need to use the little space heater when it’s cold as there aren’t any extra blankets. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back AND refer our friends! Thank you!

Tiny house in a slice of heaven

The property was clean and well organized. The property manager was super attentive and made sure it we were all set! It was a great evening stop for us while we were on our way for a 36hr Kayak Fishing trip, will definitely book again!
