We just finished at 4 night stay at this property. We had 7 adults and 4 children with plenty of room. We enjoyed being able to walk on and off of the beach which only had a few people on it because it’s only open to the few houses right there on the beach. We also enjoyed the outdoor showers for when you come off the beach. We utilized the front and back porches which all had plenty of tables and seating. We had a great stay and would love to visit again.

Oceanfront Beach House on Highly Sought After Ocean Ridge

We had a wonderful stay at the house! The location is fantastic, and the layout is ideal—honestly, I could totally see pie family living here! One small suggestion I have would be to include a note in the listing about the need to bring your own linens (whether by renting them or bringing your own). It would help make the experience even more seamless for future guests. Thank you!!

Wonderful week at the beach

The house was perfect for our family (6 adults and 3 teens). There was ample bedrooms and space for everyone to spread out. We especially loved being beach front and all the outdoor space. We ate dinner on the deck facing the street and then retired to the ocean front deck each night to enjoy the breeze and ocean sounds. We would absolutely rent this house again!

Remember your sheets

The place was in a good location. The house was nice, just a little dated (we had an interior designer staying in the house). We were surprised that the linens were not included. Our experience at other places the linens were included. Plenty of room, and even extra rooms we did not even use. Overall a good experience.

Family Meet Up

Our stay was great and relaxing. There were 8 adults and 4 kids in our party and we were very comfortable. Lots of out door covered space to gather, eat and hang out. Walking access to the beach made life easy if you needed to get something from the house. We prepared all meals at the house, due to short stay, with no issue. Communication with the owner/manager was promoted and friendly, and much appreciated.

Check in was easy. Property managers responded to questions quickly. House was so absolutely immaculate, gorgeous, spacious, and comfortable, it far exceeded our expectations, even though the VRBO posting made it look amazing enough!! Access to the beach was such a short and easy walk. Nice amenities everywhere on the property. It’s clear the house and property are well maintained. We will definitely be returning!

Awesome property on the beach!

Five girlfriends take a beach trip every year and this will be a house we will come back to. The owners were so helpful, the house was roomy and you can tell they visit often because the house had everything we needed and more. The views were amazing and there were two GREAT porches with lots of seating. There was a mixup about the linens and we didn't bring ours. One of the owners came out after her day of work to let us into the personal linens so we didn't have to try and get them somewhere else. She stayed to visit for about 30 minutes and we told her that we could have fit her right into our group. :)

We could not have been more pleased with our recent stay! The cottage reminded us of bygone glorious summer vacations at Atlantic Beach.

Wonderful Oceanfront Vacation Experience

The Ocean Ridge neighborhood is one of the nicest in the Atlantic Beach area. The beach house is spacious and very well maintained. We have enjoyed the area for over 50 years. 20 years of that time, family members owned a beachfront home. The remaining years we have rented. For us, some homes have the right feel to them and this property is definitely one of them. The hard pine flooring and paneling in some of the rooms, the large ocean front windows, a spacious eating area and kitchen, multiple seating areas for relaxing, the modern bathrooms, large bedrooms, beautiful sand dunes and much more. And any questions or needs we had were attended to quickly and professionally. This property facilitated a wonderful relaxing time for our family. We highly recommend it.

My family and I enjoyed the home. They had plenty of kitchen utensils that most other places don’t offer. Although the propane tank was empty and I planned on grilling out. Great property and I will definitely recommend this property for big families. The three patios were amazing!

Holiday Weekekend family gathering

We had a wonderful time over the Labor Day weekend staying at this beach house. Beautiful neighborhood, plenty of parking, great location, warm water and lots of beach toys and chairs. We had a great time and there was plenty of room for everyone to hang out and not feel crowded. Large fridge and nice appliances, plenty of dished for big family dinners. We used the grill twice and it worked fine. A few notes to be aware of: While at the beach on days when there wasn't much wind, the sand fleas ate us up. Use bug spray if you plan to be on the beach each day just in case. This was the first time we rented a place that didn't include linens, so we were not prepared and needed to buy towels and sheets the day we arrived. Had we realized that was even a possibility we could of brought items with us. We would stay here again!

Although Calvin and Jean have both passed away, their children and grandchildren are still making memories here that will last for generations to come.
The Wellons Family has opened their home for others to enjoy and make their own special memories while enjoying the amazing oceanfront at Atlantic Beach. Many of our guests return year after year for their family getaways. It is our goal to provide a family-oriented and relaxing home for you to enjoy all that Atlantic Beach has to offer.
