Another great week at the beach

We had another great stay this summer at the high tide. It it tidy and welcoming. The house had all the amenities of home while being a very short 2-3 min walk to the beach. This year there were some nice upgrades like the out door shower and paved driveway. Thank you!

Wonderful vacation - 2 minute walk to the beach

We had a wonderful time at High Tide! The house has nicely updated with so many modern perks like all new mini splits, dishwasher and ice maker and smart TV. The house was very clean and welcoming. The house is a 2 minute walk directly to the beach. It's a 1 minute drive to ocean park and a 4 minute drive to old orchard parking. The hosts Suzanne and Brian were very responsive to messages and accommodating to our request. We hope to go back again!

Newly renovated well appointed house right near beach

First, a huge “thank you” to the owners for graciously sharing their beautiful home with us. The home was more beautiful and comfortable than we hoped. It was exceptionally clean and extremely well stocked. The attention to detail is evident in every single aspect of this house, down to the rounded edges of the furniture if you have little ones running around. The owners left no stone unturned in preparing a cozy home-away-from home experience for their renters. We are marveled at the scrupulous cohesion of everything, from the deck to the outdoor shower (which had shampoo, conditioner and body wash nicely placed inside), to the fully equipped grill outside. The owner was also very open and responsive to any questions we may have had. The close proximity and short walk to the beach was the cherry on top of this perfect vacation.

Awww! Thank you Josh! I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay. Renovating the High Tide has been a labor of love and we tried to think of everything we'd want as renters. Come back to Kinney Shores anytime!
