The Nest Leatherback Lodge

Very nice accommodations! Clean, comfortable, and plenty of room for our family. Stephanie, the owner, was quick to answer any questions and even left a welcome basket containing some necessities that may have been forgotten with a few snacks as well. I would highly recommend this property!

Our stay was great. Our hostess was even willing to bring bags of ice over when the ice maker stopped (which we refused) but she gave us a refund. And the neighbors were very accommodating. Would definitely recommend a 4.5 star overall.

The house is well maintained, located on a quiet marsh (and unbelievably, no bugs), near the ocean beach, and provides nearly unlimited parking. We had a great vacation week.

Great week with family

The house was great and the two separate floors allowed family time and our little ones quiet space to rest. Short walk to the beach. The house was well equipped for cooking and the hosts ensured that everything we needed was there.

The kitchens werr well stocked with all the cooking needs and very clean. Stephanie went above and beyond to make our family trip so special. We can't wait to go back next year!

We had a great stay. Place was clean and they had a gift basket with toiletries, toothbrushes, deodorants, and more for those who may have forgotten them. Kitchen fully stocked with cooking supplies. We had a microwave that wasn’t working and I messaged host and they responded quickly and resolved the issue asap. Great place to stay especially if traveling with friends or another family.

We had a great stay at this beach house! Check-in was smooth and easy, with clear instructions that made our arrival stress-free. The house was very clean upon arrival, and we really appreciated how well-kept and welcoming everything felt.The owner was also very responsive and quick to answer any questions we had during our stay, which made the experience even better.One area that could be improved is the kitchen—it could use a few more supplies and essentials for guests who enjoy cooking. That said, the home was comfortable, in a great location, and perfect for a relaxing beach vacation.We’d definitely consider staying again!

On the point

Leatherback Lodge 2 is a nicely updated house on the point in Cherry Grove. We stayed during the 4th of July and it was very quiet with a nice view of the marsh. There are 3 bedrooms and two baths on each floor so plenty of space to spread out. We took our golf cart to the beach because it was very hot but you could walk. Stephanie is a great host and we would definitely stay here again.

Perfect for family rendezvous

We had family come together from all over for my daughter's destination wedding. The house is beautiful with lots of space. The back decks were great for the evenings. We had the bridesmaids all get ready with hair and makeup in the one unit. There were enough mirrors and space for all of us. Having the 2 full kitchens is also very nice with that many people. There were beach chairs and just a short walk to the beach. The hosts were very responsive to any issues or questions. I would highly recommend this property!

Outstanding Vacation Home!!!

This home is outstanding for a large family to have a relaxing vacation. There were 14 of us and we had room to sprawl out and relax at our leisure. Even when there was an occasional rain event we were able to sit out on the covered porches or under home itself and enjoy the beautiful marsh creek just outside the back of the home. It was close enough to grocery stores, restaurants, mini golf and many other things to do. It was only a short walk to the beach and a nice area just to walk through. Stephanie was quick to respond to the couple of questions that I had and was a pleasure to speak with. Highly recommend this one. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home.

Perfect place

We loved the house and the location. Stephanie was wonderful to communicate with us. They even went the second mile to correct the internet connection. Sent her husband out to get it corrected! Not many host would do that! We loved being on the marsh! I highly recommend this property for family vacations!

Good stay!

We had a great time. The welcoming basket was very nice! We had family and friends coming and going all week and the house worked well for our needs. We cooked a lot at the house and the kitchen utensils/pots/pans could be updated. But overall, we had a great stay!
