On the other side, there's a patio loveseat, table, and four lounge chairs for your relaxation and conversation. There's even festive lights to appreciate the deck any time of day or evening.

A linen package is included in all units from our cleaning service. All bed sheets and bath and kitchen towels will be delivered and set up before your stay. No making up beds when you get here!

Our story- Soon after purchasing this unit in 2016, we began updating the interior. In 2020, we completely updated the hall bathroom adding an upsized bespoke tile shower, installed a new secure storm door, and replaced the queen bed and bed in two bedrooms with new hybrid spring-foam bed. In 2022, we replaced nearly all the outdoor furnishings on the deck, living room furnishings, and kitchen appliances. In 2024, we updated the master bathroom completely adding a little bling and luxury to the space. We use the off season to continually update our place. You are renting directly from us, the owners.

During the summer season, we accept requests that are at least 7 nights. We will accept check-in and out on any day of the week.
