Good to know

Welcome in! The property is newly professionally remodeled and designed with nice touches and high end finishes. This house was built in the early 1900s and we’ve done an amazing job renovating yet the slight floor wiggle is an amazing piece of history! You'll first notice the tall ceilings and updated lighting and ceiling fans throughout. The AC, plumbing, and electrical were all replaced in 2022. The property is a 2 bedroom one bathroom with a super comfy king bed in the primary and a bunk bed with twin and full-size bed in the second bedroom. The sofa also pulls out to a full-size bed. This house sleeps up to 6 people. All bedrooms and the living room have ROKU Smart TVs with your favorite streaming apps (Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Paramount+, HBO Max, Amazon Prime, etc). Just use your credentials to log in and you’re good to go. The updated kitchen boasts quartz countertops and new stainless-steel appliances. Want to fry an egg? Go for it! Want to roast a turkey? We got you fam! Wake up to a fresh cup of morning Joe either by the pot or single serve K-cup. Fret not, coffee, cream, and sugar are provided. There is a large patio area with BBQ Pit and fire pit. The pièce de resistance is the oversized wet room / bathroom. Relax in the free-standing tub or bathe in the steaming walk in shower. Your basic toiletries and then some are provided as a courtesy. We would love to host you in our home! Send a message with any questions you may have.

This is a great location to service all your needs when in town. Always better to stay for families. Perfect size, access was easy. Beds were very comfortable, very clean. Awesome space in the bathroom. Amenities are there for your every need. Also a great stop before your cruise departure. Can’t wait to stay again.

Super cute house with great amenities! Very clean. Loved having the driveway for off-street parking. Centrally located, just a short drive to anything you’d want to do: the beach, restaurants, shopping, etc. It was perfect for our girls’ trip. Hosts are very responsive, helpful, and flexible. Definitely recommend staying here, we had a great time!

We loved our stay here. The kids loved Teddy Bonesevelt, and all the ghost and skeleton photos were perfect leading up to Halloween. The house met all our needs and was centrally located—quick drive to Seawall or Strand.
