Vacasa stay
We will absolutely be back! This house was amazing. The community was so clean and charming. It was so great to walk to the shops and the beach. We had a big group and still had a lot of space in the house. It was such a great stay

Spring Break with a big family!
The neighborhood was the perfect setup for a large family, we had a short walk to the heated pool and the beach. We enjoyed lots of restaurants that were close by and could enjoy our outside time when the weather was pleasant!
This is a great house for a family or group of friends beach trip. It’s a decent size, plenty of bathrooms and seating. I was pleasantly surprised with how close it was to the beach.

Emma, Thank you so much for the kind words. We are thrilled you chose our home for your recent beach trip. And, you are so very correct - - we have found our home the perfect size to host larger family/friend functions or to just enjoy a small quaint get together. Lastly, we appreciate you noting how close the beach is. Oftentimes, maps and overhead views do not tell an accurate story about what a short stroll it is to our private boardwalk. We would love to host you again in the future. - Russell & Kathi
This was a great property! Stylish and comfortable! Wonderful layout, comfortable beds, and everything you needed for your stay! I would definitely recommend this property!

Sam, thank you so much for the kind words about our home. And you are so right - - one reason we decided to share our home was that we wanted others to appreciate how " fantastic" it is - - close to everywhere you want to be and everything you want to. We are thrilled your family had such an enjoyable Spring Break. Please know you are welcome to visit with us again. - Russell & Kathi

Lydia, thank you so much for choosing our home to enjoy with your teens on Spring Break. One of the reasons we love the 30A community is that is provides so much fun for every member of the family. Our teens never have a dull moment when here. The great thing about the 30A area is the ability to enjoy special memories throughout every stage of life. We certainly hope to host you and your family again. - Russell & Kathi
We have been staying in this neighborhood for many years, it’s such a great location and the neighborhood is very quiet with easy beach access at the end of the street. The house was very roomy, we had 5 family members staying and everyone had their own space. The house was very clean and decorated nicely. We would definitely recommend this house. The only thing I would suggest that could make it better were if there were beach chairs to use and bikes.

Life is good
We loved the location and the house fit all 6 of us and had a great beach feel. Very clean. No beach chairs which we would have liked, but the beach and the pool were great. Loved the seating in the living room and the sink on the third floor.
This was one of our best get aways ever! The house was super clean and spacious, very well decorated. We had everything we needed. The pools and beach are a very short walk and are not crowded. Shopping and restaurants are all nearby, too.

Just off 30A between Seaside & The Hub. The beach is just two blocks away. Close enough to the action to get there by bike instead of having to use the car. The house and street are so charming. We can’t wait to return!

We loved this house! It was beautifully yet simply decorated with lots of little places to relax. And it was impeccably clean! The host was very helpful on the few questions that we had. It was located on a very quiet street and close to the beach. We loved it!

The house was clean, well equipped with plenty of room for our family and a few friends. Our college students loved the third floor hangout room and balcony. The neighborhood was quiet and very close to the beach. We’ve been coming to the area for more than 15 years and this is definitely one of our favorites!!
