Third time to stay here. Great access to beach. Bathroom had mold and rust beside tub. Needed vacuuming. Just a few touch ups are needed or I would give it 5 stars.

Clean and easy rental. Had all the things we needed except hair dryer. Great privacy. Little disappointed we couldn't see the surf for the dunes but loved the benches on the boardwalk for my mother with mobility issues. A lil pricier than other homes but overall a good trip.

Cute house at private part of island

Our family stayed in this house and really enjoyed your stay. The house is near the end of the island, super quiet beaches and really close beach access from the deck. Our kids loved the proximity to the sand and especially loved the bunk bed room!

Amazing views!

The view from the deck overlooking the ocean was amazing! The house was spotless, tastefully decorated, and in prime condition. There’s plenty of space for a family if that is what you need! I plan to rebook this house again in the future.

Great house!

Great house, perfect for a quiet weekend. It was clean, even in places where rentals aren't usually clean (like the coffee maker, cabinets, microwave). Nice touches throughout, including a full set of plastic plates/cups in the kitchen (in addition to ceramic plates), hooks around the house to hang up towels etc., hose on the deck between the beach and the house door. Would book again!

Great place for a family beach trip!

Great location on the island! Loved being able to walk to Lonerider brewery to watch the sunset & any easy walk down to the point at the end of the island. The location felt nice & private due to only having neighbors on one side, we really enjoyed it. The home could have been stocked a little better- no hand soaps in the bathrooms, only 1 roll of paper towels for a whole week (easily remedied by a run to the store) Overall, it was a great place for our family vacation!

What a perfect little beach cottage! There is a protected dune site beside the house, so the beach is very private and not heavily populated. We would definitely stay here again. The AC could use a little tune up as it really heats up in the afternoon. A fresh paint job would really dress the place up also. Lastly, the kitchen fridge has a fishy smell, likely from someone leaving something in there too long. It wasn't unbearable and we bought some baking soda to cut the smell down. Overall, Ahoy There is one of the best beach houses we've ever rented.

The house was exactly as promised, and very well maintained. We apricated the linens being included. The beds & linens were good quality, which you don't always find in rentals these days. The management was very responsive & helpful when we had car problems at checkout time, which caused inconvenience for them. They clearly took pride in us having a positive experience all around. Another positive is that the checkout instructions were clear, polite and not overly burdensome. Often it's like you are put to work at the end of your vacation with ridiculous checkout expectations. This just felt like we had stayed with friends. Which seems wise because the vibe of being welcomed and well treated made us treat the property with respect & care. More rentals should engage in this congenial dynamic. Its a win-win. We rent homes often and I would put this rental company in the top tier. Beyond that, we had interactions with several of the neighbors who were owners and they were just lovely. We were there for 4th of July. You could see fireworks from all around, including the other islands. It was magical.
