Adorable Home, super close to all the sites, beaches and historic district

Adorable quiet and beautiful grounds, the neighbors we did meet were very nice. Great sidewalks for walking your pets. The location was amazing- close to everything! The place was spotless, comfortable and had a very nice open kitchen, and big bathroom. The bathroom was the talk of the weekend- the shower was huge and heavenly with the best water pressure and hottest settings I think we've ever had on vacation! I know that part sounds crazy. But all of my kids and spouse were raving about it! We had a wonderufl stay, I was able to work and the ease of wifi and comfort at the desks in each room. Very nice and wonderful visit! My only negative remark would be all the fees when booking thru VRBO. I was a tad upset about having to pay an additional fee if we checked in earlier than 4pm. I understand the reasoning for checking jn early. But the extra fee per hour was disappointing. The host was top notch and responded right away and even left us a sweet surprise for coming in on Thanksgiving Day! Would book again.
