From the reviews

This is a large beautiful house. It had plenty of space to play family games or serve food to a large group. The wrap around porch is a great place to relax. There are definitely some areas still needing work and the patio was sadly a little overgrown.

★★★★☆ — Robin, Aug 2024

We had an absolutely amazing stay at this beautiful property. The house is incredibly spacious, and every room is full of unique character and charm. The large bedrooms were not only comfortable but thoughtfully designed, with beautiful details that made the whole place feel special.

2nd Graduation Party at this wonder home. The house is super spacious, and the property is huge. Even though our 6 family combined BBQ experienced, sun, rain downpours and hail and winds at various points throughout the day, we were able to use the ginormous wrap around porch to continue the party until those…

★★★★★ — Martina, Jun 2025

We had the best weekend at Buttercups Home! It was the perfect venue for a large graduation party with room for everyone. We appreciated the full kitchen, as well as the layout with the large porches as well as rooms inside. It fit our needs perfectly. Everyone had such a good time, they did not want to leave.

Getting married at Buttercups Home

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
