History
My mom, Marianne, started this business when the guests staying at her beach house complained about having to bring all of this stuff from they home to the beach house. Sheets and towels were the biggest problem. Mom worked out of her house for the first couple of years but it soon took off and her little side business become a full time real business. My brother and I helped a lot in the summer while in college and when mom decided she wanted to retire we took over in 2000. We add several things, baby cribs and beach chairs were the most requested. In 2008, my brother wanted to concentrate on his growing website business so I decided to go it alone as owner. My husband and daughter were a great help during this transition period and are still with me today. We have expanded steadily over the years, with a great group of repeat customers and lots of referral from the realtors that manage the summer houses. We opened a rental store in November 2014 to better serve our customer.
