    "Too many dogs run free on the busy main roads. Run in front of traffic and use neighbors yards as their poo area. I as a dog owner would love to be able to walk mine further than just my yard and my in-laws. But with others running free, it makes it impossible as many are not too friendly"

    "It’s like stepping back in time. A little bit of Mayberry USA in this quaint family filled fishing village. 💜"
  • Pattie A.
    "Family friendly. Small fishing village. Tight knit neighborhood. Lots of seasonal activities. Minutes from the water. "
