Quiet little getaway.

We had a great time. The property was beautiful and clean. I think the hardest thing about this place is finding it. I called and they stayed on the phone with me until I found it! They are easy to work with and quick.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I enjoyed this beach cabin! Great location, close to stores, Swedes office, and the beach. Clean, spacious, updated, would have been a plus if the lift worked and grass was cut (mosquitoes were bad), but other than that, a great stay! Swedes was accessible and responded quickly to calls and messages. We will be back!
