If you need a cozy place close to the water and not directly downtown, may I suggest here.
There's plenty of cozy little areas of her rental that make you feel at home and not vacation. Places to see the sky, enjoy a fire, dip your toes, or grill under the lights, you'll feel comfortable at this place.
Downtown - easy to get to.
Beaches - easy to get to and they have bikes to peddle over if you want.
Two lovely dogs that watch over the place for you.
Overall, I was happy an content here the whole stay and will look here first for my return trip.
Thank you so much!
