The property was updated and spotless, offering everything needed for a comfortable stay. The back balcony provided terrific views, and being just a block from the beach made it easy to catch the perfect sunset. Our one-night stay was too short, and we're already looking forward to a longer trip back.

We loved Karen’s place!! My husband and I stayed for a weekend to enjoy the fall colors and Karen’s apartment was exactly what we needed. A great water view, a comfortable bed, a well stocked kitchen, comfortable furnishings and nicely decorated. Very close to town and in a nice, walkable neighborhood. Everything was exactly as described and pictured. We loved the extra touches like the provided Starbucks coffee and chocolate! We would definitely recommend this place and we will definitely stay there again.
