Island living with a touch of Victorian

Must be 23 years old to book! This old house is charming and peaceful with a bit of Victorian flare. It has 12 ft. Ceilings and the original wood floors with lots of character. A little old with the new. It’s centrally located on the east end. Only a 15 min walk to the beach! I provide beach towels and there’s an outdoor shower to rinse off before going up to relax. Alot of great restaurants are in walking distance! Only a two mile drive to the cruise port and the Strand.
