I took my 13-year-old daughter and two of her friends on a last minute, end-of-summer beach weekend trip. Found this place just a week before. The pleasant communication with the owners was comfortable and just right. After we arrived, we got a message just making sure all was well, and an offer to let them know if there was anything we needed. When arriving, the girls were sooo happy and thought it was so nice! Not what they (nor I) expected because we were smack in the middle of an older, quaint neighborhood with lots of old trees and homes almost 100 years old (Neighbor told me so ;)) but we felt like we were in the old beach towns you read about and see pictures of. We met neighbor who I read about in the reviews and the owners mentioned her in our private messages. Neighbor is definitely part of the package with this house. She was welcoming, adorable and helpful, not too little, not too much. If you are fussy about having your rental being straight off HGTV AFTER clip then don’t rent this place. If you care about comfort, cleanliness, and feeling like your favorite aunt was expecting you and couldn’t be there and wanted you to make yourself at home, this is your jam. All doors and windows are new and felt very safe. The place is minimalist yet everything you need plus some extra hospitality all ready for you upon arrival. Everything was ready just for you to drop the luggage and sprint to the beach just 2 blocks away. Oh and when ya get back from beach, you can catch a waterfront sunset literally 25 strides away. Back Porch at night reminded me of Mrs. Madrigal’s courtyard from Tales of the City (if ya don’t know, Google it!) and was a nice spot for some quiet me-time. Beds, pillows and sheets all new, clean and very comfortable! Woke up at 5:15 am our last morning to get ready to catch the sunset, grab some breakfast at the boardwalk and spend the morning with the beach mostly to yourself for a good 4 hours, then back to this place for quick showers, pack up and go! This place was just right for our trip. Lots of memories made in a short stay.
