Description from owner
Description
Renting since 2015. 45 reviews except I unlisted my home because of Covid and it took my reviews away. Southern breezes and beautiful sunset gulf view in this quaint historic home. It has been renovated to include granite countertops and a full kitchen perfect for baking. Linens and towels are provided and beach towels are ready to take to the beach only one block away. Take time to relax on the deck or take advantage of the large propane grill. The house is kid friendly, equipped with playpen, baby bath, baby floor grab activity toy, baby/toddler learning to walk walker and high chair. Toys, games (adult and children) cards, puzzles and more. Let the kids or or approved pets run around the back yard or enjoy all the different things the island has to offer. Centrally located near historic downtown, restaurants and shopping. Just down the road to the Pleasure Pier, outside skate park, or the ferry dock to Bolivar peninsula. Two cameras are installed on the lower level to ensure the safety of the owner which lives downstairs in the apartment of the house. There are no cameras upstairs. I give the guest privacy. Guest agrees to quiet time from 10pm-8am. Violations by guest or animal will result in a cancelled reservation with no refund. No need to worry about parking for we have a driveway for parking for one vehicle and one vehicle for street parking.

“as advertised”
Good location, very close to the beach and restaurants. We are two seniors but this would be great for a young family. Lots of games, an XBox 360, beach toys for the kids.
