Staying at the Smiling Bear puts you at the heart of everything available in the area and gives you a nice place to call home and make great family memories.

Summary: We had a great stay! The value of this property related to proximity to beach, two towns and view was great. The house was clean, there were a lot of spiderwebs and spiders in the windows, which did not impact us negatively. Would stay again!
