Summary: This house is a perfect beach house in New England !!!! From the screened in front porch that we enjoyed our evening cocktails on to the outdoor shower. There is nothing better than an outdoor shower after being at the beach all day. The kitchen is fully stocked with every type of pot and pan to dishes , bowls and glassware. Can't wait to stay there again
