Why the Owner Chose Avalon
Why Avalon? location, location, location! One of only a few beach-block single family rental homes with a pool in all of seven-mile island. Just a few steps away from beautiful Avalon beach – voted best beach in mid-Atlantic. Our beach is lifeguard protected and 1 block from a designated surfing beach and a designated boogie board beach. Located in the quiet north end of town, yet only five blocks from town center. Leave your car and walk to great restaurants, bars, and your morning coffee.
The Unique Benefits at this House
This home has the best of everything. A private pool in your back yard, two second story decks (front and back) and a covered pool-side patio to get away from that mid-day sun. We cater to families and provide a great den area for the kids on the lower level complete with TV, DVDs and video game collection - while the adults can relax on the second level deck and enjoy the ocean views or take a swim in the private pool.

This was our second year at this property. We had a great time. We love the town, the beach only 4 houses away, the pool, and the property's amenities. The house is always very clean, the street is quiet, and everything works well in the house.

Many memorories were created as our first family vacation with my two sons and 5 grandchildren. We found this vacation home better than expected from the virtual tour. It was so spacious with many of the amenities you find at home. The kitchen had all the conveniences you could ask for. The open floor plan was great in keeping the family together when playing cards, watching tv, cooking, etc. We enjoyed our coffee in the mornings on the upper deck overlooking the ocean. Many times my son commented on the pool being the best feature as this is where the entire family spent the late afternoons. I would recommend this vacation home to everyone of all ages. I feel I am spoiled and would not be happy renting anywhere else. Mike was very attentive in making sure everything was in working order. Thanks Mike!

We have rented homes for several years in Stone Harbor and Avalon, and this house has the best of it all. Ocean views, close walk to a guarded beach, and a pool. The home was very clean, has great amenities like TVs with cable in the bedroom, and a fully equipped game room that is perfect for kids. The neighborhood is very quiet and comfortable. The owners were great and obviously wanted to make sure our stay was positive.

Celebrating My 60th!

Review Submitted: 06/20/11
I rented the house and invited my whole family to celebrate my 60th birthday. The home is beautiful well appointed with everything you would need - even an iron and ironing board, which one of my daughters can't be without even at the beach. The house is situated in such a way that it accommodated a young family with two small children and grandparents on the first floor without too much encroaching (toys) upon my husband and I and our adult daughters on the second floor. The den on the first floor was such a blessing for their early morning children risings. The huge open area on the second floor comprised of the kitchen/dining area and living room area went a big way into allowing need personal space for 3 separate families. The storage was unbelievable - kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms and the patio and pool made for a great gathering spot in the early evenings. Easy access to the beach was a welcomed plus.

An Avalon Gem

Review Submitted: 05/10/11
This home was just perfect for us! We were in Avalon for a family wedding and were very pleased with this property. It was comfortable, very well maintained and had lots of room. The family room on the first floor was a bonus and great for the young ones, and with all its amenities it kept them entertained. The upstairs living room, kitchen and dining areas were spacious and opened to a lovely deck with ocean views. Easy access to beach and short walk to downtown Avalon. Since it was early May it was too cold to use the pool but what a plus in the summer weather! One thing that is very important to us when we travel is the comfort of the mattresses and again everyone was pleased and very happy with their beds. Owner was very helpful and communicated promptly. Would definitely recommend this property. Hope to return next year!

My family and I had a wonderful time. The pool was beautiful and having twin 3 year olds, I really appreciated the large steps. They played on that large step the way they play in the baby pool. The location was perfect as well. Such a short walk to a beautiful beach. Also nice renting from good people that care about your stay and put so much effort into making it a great experience. Thanks Mike.

my family's experience in renting this home in 2010 exceeded our expectations. the 1/2 block walk to the beach and the backyard pool were great. the house was kept in excellent condition. probably the fact that we all agreed we would like to comeback next year pretty well sums up our stay

4th of July in Avalon

Review Submitted: 09/10/10
We've been going to Avalon for years and this is one of the best places we've had. Location was perfect. Its a quieter part of town, but very close to a guarded beach and a short walk or bike ride to shops, mini golf, arcade and restaurants. The house was great. Views from the decks were amazing; sunrise ocean views from the front deck, 4th of July fireworks from the back. Kids loved their downstairs den and the pool. Owners are attentive and easy to work with. All in all a great family vacation. We will be back.

Great location near the beach. All rooms are very clean, modern, spacious, and the house offers a view of the ocean as it is 4 houses from the beach. Well-appointed and well-kept house and pool with plenty of amenities. Owner is responsive and prompt.
