Great location for the beach.

This house is just a block from the beach. The beach was great and never crowded. The large wagon for taking stuff to the beach was greatly appreciated. The house with 5 bedrooms worked great for our family but it could use some updating overall.

As advertised. Good set up for families. Good location to palaces to eat locally at the beach is fabulous. Very close to the beach. 5 min walk. Only down side is that you have to walk to the beach along the major road way in front of the house. No sidewalk. Short walk past two homes to side street.

Beach access was great because of the young children we had along. The beach cart was a lifesaver! The 3-yr old loved the lower level playroom and outdoor playground. Furniture/lroom layouts have changed inside and out compared to pix on vrbo, but nothing that affected our stay adversely. The house is roomy and easily accomodated the 9 of us. Five bedrooms was awesome! Chrisy was extremely responsive to all my questions and thorough in her responses! Would stay here again!

Relaxing stay

The house was comfortable and pleasant. We are seven seniors and enjoyed the ocean being just around the corner, the proximity to Ocean City and Bethany Beach, and some really nice restaurants.

This house was perfect for our family vacation. We shared the house with our grown children and their families. Each family shared two bedrooms joined by a full bath. The master bedroom was on the third floor along with the living room and kitchen. So we all had some privacy when needed. The beach was a five minure walk and the beach cart that comes with the house made it so easy to transport chairs, umbrellas and coolers. The house was clean and comfortable and very spacious. Chrisy was great and responded quickly when we contacted her. I highly recommend this house and look forward to future stays.

Tons of Space and Easy Access to the Beach

Overall we had a great stay. There was a lot of space for everyone to relax back at the house if needed. Easy access to the beach, it was only a block walk which was great since we have a 1 year old. Would highly recommend.

Great house!

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Tingle's Time Out. The house is comfortable and spacious - we were an extended family with 4 generations represented and all had plenty of room. Proximity to the beach and the use of the wagon to drag all our stuff up was a plus. I would definitely recommend this place to others!

Great Escape from Life

Great location, great house! Although my friends and I ended up here trying to escape a hurricane in north Carolina, it exceeded all our expectations. The house was great and close enough to walk to restaurants and the beach. We live near DC and will definitely be trying to come back!

This was our third year at the beach house. Being Oceanside and close to the beach is great. From the balcony we saw gorgeous sunsets over the bay. We hope to return in 2020.

The house is great for families with small children. There is a baby gate to keep them from falling down the steps. There are play rooms and toys. The kitchen is nice and fully stocked. The outdoor decks are nice. It is not too far from the beach. We had a wonderful time!

Best week!

We are multiple family’s that come together for our beach vacation each year. We love FI and this house was perfect for us. Everything was clean and looked what we had excepted from pictures and written descriptions. The ease of walking to the beach and to anything downtown was perfect and just what we wanted in a house. We hope to vacation here next year as well.

Place is great

Everything about this property was as advertised and wonderful. The set up was perfect for our whole family of grandparents, mother with 5 yr old and couple with 5 and 1.5 yr old. There was a simple walk to the beach, a walking/biking street out the back door, a little playground in the backyard, fantastic tv service. The neighborhood had easily accessible playgrounds, water park, bars.restaurants...We look forward to staying there again..The host was very responsive!!!

Very Satisfying Return Vacation

It's so nice to want to return to a beach house rental. And we were very pleased with our second year here. This house is perfect for a 3 generation family like ours. Grammie had the master bedroom on the main floor and everyone else had the downstairs bedrooms. Although the house is on the main street, it's an easy walk to the beach. The house was clean with no lingering sand from the previous renters. We plan to return for our 3rd year in 2019!
