A recent guest had this to say about the property:
"A great little bungalow, very gorgeously appointed. The setting is the kind of beautiful you only get in the live oaks, gardens, fountains, ferns and bright sunshine. The patio outside the bungalow is rather elegant, something you can't really get from the photos. Julie and her husband were striking hosts, attending to every need, offering guidance on local food and even helping with beach access. We were privileged to be the first guests in this bungalow, and it's highly recommended for all who may follow. Thanks Julie!"

Vacation rental booking tips and tricks:

Getting the most from your spending budget:

• Book your vacation rental as early as possible. Rental schedules often open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many families reserve their Summer vacation rentals during holiday get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Reserving a rental home in Fall or Spring months is our favorite way to save money on your vacation home. Rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties. Many vacationers use this method to find larger homes within budget, or to reserve an oceanfront vacation rental that would otherwise be unaffordable during June, July, and August.
• Some hosts and property managers offer discounts or promotional rates for veterans. Make sure to check with your host or property manager to see if rate reductions are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to purchase vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which commonly will cost between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for any missed days as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance can be a a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your property manager for program terms and fees.
• Look for your local visitors guide upon checking in. If your rental home doesn't have a copy, you can find them at local grocery stores, shopping centers, and visitor centers. In addition to great local stories, visitors guides contain money saving offers on nearby attractions, tours, restaurants, and shops.

• Choose your vacation week and budget.
• Note the number bedrooms and the bed configuration your group requires. Charming Historic Guest House in the Heart of Town has 1 bedrooms and 1 bathrooms. If you need a larger or smaller rental, use our rental home search.
• Precise descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is generally available on booking pages. Otherwise, email or call the property owner before booking the property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which typically includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what is suitable for your vacation family.
• Some properties allow pets, but some don't. Allowable types of family pet, size and breeds may be restricted, and added charges may apply. Ask your host about allowable pet guidelines before booking.
• Are you visiting for a single attraction? If so, use a map search to browse nearby properties.
• Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available before booking

Advice for a great stay:

• Take a copy of the owner's contact number and entry/exit procedures for your rental property. Store the manager's contact information in your smartphone and wallet.
• Property managers are there to help! Feel free to ask questions during your stay.
• Keep your rental home locked while you're gone! Don't let thieves ruin your family vacation.
• Upon check-in, make note of any damages to the property and immediately contact the owner. Keep records of all coorespondence.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Often, nearby homes are occupied by permanent residents. Respecting quiet hours and parking regulations reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to find the best bike paths, have a great night out, or the best spots for BBQ?
• Re-check every room of the vacation property to confirm that you've packed everything at check-out. Make sure to check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden items. Clean the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
• Document the condition of the property at check-out. We recommend taking a video during your final walk-through.
• Leave a review! Property managers rely on great ratings to compel future reservations. They'll be grateful for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went wrong, other vacationers will be thankful you shared your experience and help them have the best future vacation. Please be objective. If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the owner had any control over the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to remedy it.
