We had a wonderful vacation with all four of our children, and spouses, and 7 grands. Lots of room for everyone. The beach wasn’t overly crowded with amazing fireworks for forth of July. We are already planning a trip for next year!

Great view. Off the beaten path, very little traffic on the 4th of July. Excellent accommodations. I was a little disappointed with the check-in/out times. But all in all, we had a great stay.

Fantastic Property!
Our family had a fantastic stay here! The property was very nice, clean, and organized. The owners were very attentive and quick to help with anything we needed. Plenty of room for everyone to still feel like they had their own space. The beachfront location was beautiful and perfect! Highly recommend.

Family Fun
We had a family reunion and picked the very best beach house to reunite. We grilled on the huge charcoal grill, we danced on the deck, we told stories on the patio, we played games in the living room. We had non-stop fun all weekend. We wish it could have been all week long. The kitchen was fully stocked, there was plenty of space to hang out wherever we wanted, there were plenty of comfy beds, the AC was awesome, the ocean was awesome, the hosts were some of the best I've had. We had a number of questions and they answered every one. They were available to us our entire stay no matter what we needed. And we didn't really need much, everything was just as they said it would be. We loved it and definitely will be back as soon as we can! Thank you thank you, Josh and Amanda!!

Memorial Day weekend
We had a wonderful time. The house was amazing, in a great location, and the owners were very accomodating. Any issues that arose during our stay (we needed to flip a breaker), the owners communicated with us and resolved the issue immediately. We would defintely recommend this house and we plan on booking with them again in the future.
