Great stay
We enjoyed the Boat Shop location for our long weekend, it was great walking distance to the main street blocks and the Deckhand Quarters was great for us with the full kitchen, wonderful deck views, and overall laid back vibe. We look forward to returning!

Dog waste
Theey rent to people with dogs and no garbage can to put dog waste in. We were told yo dispose of it in are kitchen garbage. Which we were not going to do so everyday sometimes twice a day we had to go to the beach garbage cans and dispose of the waste there. Also only one sharp knives and toaster didn’t work and this wasva full kitchen. And one bedroom didn't have a screen. The beds were very comfortable but the pillows were flat and old. Bath towels were very thin .
