The space was perfect for our family getaway. It was spacious and clean. Walking distance to the beach and close to town. We had a wonderful stay. The listing says two parking spots, but it is actually only one parking spot. If you have other vehicles, they will need to park at the city lot or by th beach. When we arrived the code provided did not work, however, we were able to get in touch with someone to get a working code. Overall, a wonderful space for your beach stay. Excellent location. Cozy home.

Thank you for sharing such kind feedback about the home, its cleanliness, and the location. We are sorry for the confusion about the number of parking spots and will look into the listing details. We also regret the inconvenience with the initial door code and will review how this information is provided.

House was clean, has had some remodeling done. Needs some additional work, ceiling fan in master bedroom isn't adjustable. The chain was ripped out, so low speed is all you get, the other 2 rooms stay pretty warm but has additional fans in them. Need at least 2 more fans if you like cooler temps and airflow. There was piles of veggitaion debris that should have been removed before arrival. But overall was a nice stay. Finding the correct house was a challenge, maps takes you to a different place. Would ask for house number they are labeled with 1-12, but The address doesnt match the houses. The walk to the beach was easy and quick although the gate code system didnt work properly during our stay, at times the gate was left open, when it was closed would have to walk around the street. Porch railing is wimpy at best, make sure small kids dont lean on it.

We had a great experience. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary with family. Easy access to beach. St. Joseph’s Catholic Church is a short drive. We grilled one evening. Highly recommend.

Super location. Easy walk over boardwalk to the beach. Small amount of grass if you have dogs. No enclosed fence. Clearance for parking is pretty low we couldn’t fit our van completely under cover but managed to park diagonally.

Location was fantastic, the house was great and so close to everything you could want to do

Would definitely stay here again , the place was great for our family of 6 plus the German shepherd, had everything you needed in the kitchen, since we don't eat out at all . Had some small issues but management was awesome , she had someone there within minutes and fixed them all . Loved the beach and it's very dog friendly. Seen dolphins and sea turtles every day down by the jetti. Did a fishing charter with "Cody" which I highly recommend 56#s of fish and used the grill at the house to cook it up . Thx again can't wait to book the place again next year

Walking distance to beach

Location was excellent walking distance to beach. House did not look like it was cleaned. Shower liner was dirty. Seemed like house had not been mopped. Extra blankets were not clean.

It's an older property. So it has some wear and quirks that go along with that. But we felt the price point also reflects that. Very large, comfortable rooms. Each room has it's own tv. The boardwalk to the beach made it easy to go any time. All regular household appliances are present, including a washer and dryer. We were able to cook meals throughout our stay. Although the neighbors are close, it still feels very private and quiet. The property management company has it's own contracts and web portal in addition to the vrbo booking site. But they were very attentive and easy to communicate with.

Last minute change

On the day of our arrival the rental manager called to inform us that the property we had booked was unavailable due to unexpected maintenance. They had another property close by that they could substitute, which turned out to be fine. Plus side was that the new property had a nice pool, downside was that it was further from the beach. Altogether it was the best that could be done, but would have preferred our original location.
