Nautical Nonsense was perfect for my family and I.
Mary M. says
Was a great location! Short walk to the beach. Went for 4th of July and we could see the fireworks from the beach! Could use some major repairs and updates. We had alot of issues. Ac upstairs wasnt working, soft spot in the floors, the shower knob kept falling off, back door was hard to open, etc. For the price, upgrades need to be made! The host was very responsive to all our requests! They came an installed a new a/c the next morning! Overall a cozy stay.

Great place to stay for a family beach vacation! Lots and sleeping options and 3 bathrooms for lots of people. Living area is spacious for enjoying time together. A short walk to the beach and great back deck for enjoying the outdoors! Would definitely stay here again!
Carmen L. says
Nice size house for our family of 5, and a great, easy walk to the beach.The only thing I might suggest, is to have window treatments for the windows in the bedrooms upstairs.
James L. says
It’s a decent place to stay in a pinch! We wanted to take a last minute trip and this was about all that was available in our price range. Overall a good experience!
Pros: it’s in a good location, reasonably priced for the area, spacious, has all of the amenities you need.
Cons: it needs an update. Everything was clean, but noticeable stains, the flooring is coming up in some places, cracks, etc. it’s just an older house with older house issues, but it is clean. It could just do with a refresh.
Chase Webster says
Thank you for your honest feedback. We are glad the home provided a convenient and comfortable stay for your last-minute trip. While it is an older property with some age-related wear, our team performs regular inspections to ensure it remains clean and safe. We appreciate your note about updates and have worked with the owner to address the items you mentioned. We hope to welcome you again in the future.

Beautiful place, great location!
Jennifer W. says
Perfect location for our family stay on the Island. Peaceful neighborhood with a short walk to the beach, close to the West end beach with a short drive to watch sunsets. Comfortably fit six adults and two teenagers.
Rachel R. says
We had a great time at Nautical Nonsense. It looked like the pictures and had everything we needed. It is situated in a beautiful area and very close to the beach. The hosts are very friendly, responsive and accommodating. We highly recommend!
Andrew M. says
Thank you for a great stay!
Ginger says
Good morning,
Is there a fishing pier on the island and if so, how close to the house is it? My dad enjoys fishing so wanted to find out his options.
April Harrell says
There is an empty lot across the street from Nautical Nonsense which is right on the water. He is welcome to fish there.
Caitlin says
Hi Ginger, the canal ends across the street and is a good fishing option. There is also a park walking distance that he can fish from. There is a night fishing pier driving distance that does cost money. Our family has enjoyed surf fishing right off the beach which is also walking distance.
