Norm’s place was beautiful, just what we were looking for: a quiet beach escape away from the crowds and traffic.
The first-floor in-law apartment was clean, bright, well-maintained and comfortable. The fridge was fully stocked with cream, butter, eggs, English muffins, Starbucks Iced Coffee, pastry and juice. And a basket in the kitchen contained an assortment of snacks that rivals supplies at movie theaters.
The location, with water view in a private neighborhood, was ideal. Just a short, 15-minute walk to the beach or a two-minute drive. And the ocean was glorious with warm, clear water and big waves crashing on a long stretch of sand leading from South Shore Beach into the quieter Goosewing Beach Preserve.
We especially enjoyed using the outdoor shower under the porch when we came home from the beach. The best part of the place is the back porch where we ate most of our meals while watching the hummingbirds dance among the hanging baskets of flowers. We’ve never seen so many hummingbirds at one time, in one spot.
We highly recommend Norm’s Place and hope to return soon.
