"My husband and I decided to stay at EI a second week after our adult children returned home. We didn't need a huge place to stay and this was just right. The owners were very friendly and above us the entire week but never heard a sound. The unit was clean and just as described.

You’re a block away from private beach access as well which is a nice perk. We went in the offseason to visit friends but still had a great time and really enjoyed our...
