You Will Love the Location!

Our extended family had a great get together at Soundview! We enjoyed the large open living space on the main level, especially the kitchen and dining room. So much storage area! One of our favorite parts of this vacation was the location of the house to the private beach and public access beach. The house sits on a quaint beach road and you feel like you are back in time here. No hustle or bustle, so relaxing. Also, a must visit town is Essex, just a short drive away. The host was great to communicate with, too!

Year 6 and counting!

This was our 6th year renting for a week. That should be enough to tell you how much we love staying here. This year featured some upgraded fixtures (induction cooktop, wine fridge, improved faucets). We have already booked for year 7!

Great family beach house

This was our second year staying at this house. It's a perfect location right across from a private beach. The house is spacious and great for families and well stocked. Would love to come back in the future.
