We came for a business trip, and this was a perfect place to work and relax. Very quiet neighborhood, close to the beach. The owner Kelly is very friendly and super helpful. Gave detailed instructions and recommendations for the areas. Easy check in and check out. The place is super clean, spotless, well decorated, has all you need, feel like a home. You can tell the owner takes very good care of the place. We had a great time on the porch for our dinner. There is a garage for our van and plenty of parking spaces. We'll Def come stay again when we are in town next time. Thanks for the great hospitality!!

Everything was phenomenal. We enjoyed the location. The property was great just the perfect size. The only thing was that in the description and online and never mentioned about stairs, and how steep they are. I had a toddler with me and it made me very nervous that she would start climbing those stairs without us noticing it other than that we enjoyed our stay thank you so much

My son graduated from Navy Boot camp, this was about 6-7 miles away. It was a perfect stay for my family. My recruit was able to sleep in his own bed. Great location. Every amenity was there if needed. The House had enough space and was very very clean. We plan on coming 2-4 times over the next 6 months while my so. Is at A school and we will stay here again. Thanks Kelly for a wonderful home to stay in. #NavyStrong

We enjoyed our little home away from home for 4 days. It’s close to naval base and beach, the kitchen is so well appointed with coffee and tea. All the dishes and pans and soaps are there already for dishes and small laundry load. Nice efficient washer dryer. Blow dryer and extra bath soaps and shampoos. Beds are comfortable. Linens soft. There are stairs but are well lit. Bbq area and furniture to relax a very nice. It’s private . It’s quiet. I’d recommend for a couple more than larger group. Host is quick to respond. Checking in and out is easy. Just follow rules. You’ll be happy here.
