Great Vacation!

The house, location and communication were all great! The owner and agent were both responsive to questions and flexible when we had a last minute schedule change, which we really appreciated. The beach was amazing and literally 50 steps from the back door.

Pet friendly, family friendly

Property is convenient, easy to find, beachfront, and pet friendly. Ample parking; nice neighbors, great walking, beautiful well-appointed house. Multi level, so be prepared for stairs. We enjoyed use of the wi-fi, kitchen, grill, bicycles and of course ...the beach where you could walk some distance. House could use a few minor repairs which did not impact our stay. Management company answered questions in a timely manner and hosts were available for assistance during our stay.

It was a nice stay.. some kitchen utensils like paring knife, serving spoons, pan turner that are stove size not grill size would be nice. I left my Keurig there for future renters. The fly's were really biting for 3 days so being outside was not good.

The house was great! We had a slight issue with a leak and the owner came out himself on Sunday night to fix it. My only suggestion is to list all of the toys you have in the garage. I wouldn’t have packed nearly what I did if I knew you had as much as you did

Great Vacation

Very relaxing vacation. Was nice and quiet! The beds were very comfortable, better than I have at home!! The kitchen had everything we needed. The house was perfect for the five of us and our pups. You can take your dogs into the beach which was a major plus!!!

Lovely family vacation

Enjoyed a week at the bay in this home. Plenty of room for our family plus a kitchen table large enough for all. We had fun helping to save horseshoe crabs, fishing and relaxing. Owners were responsive to some minor things and knowledgeable about the area. The house was well stocked for our needs.

Absolutely beautiful veiw of the bay

This house was amazing. Very clean and has everything you need. We loved that the host left us with a thank you card and some special snacks on the kitchen counter. We also brought our dog with us and he loved it to. If your looking for a nice get away and private beach front this is the place to go.
