Baby’s First

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was a short walk to the beach. Our 8-month-old grand daughter was with us and we all had a blast sharing the first beach experience with her. We really appreciated how Mark accommodated us for our stay. All of the appliances worked well along with the well-stocked kitchen. Plenty of counter space. Beds were very comfortable. Nice large screened-in porch with lots of seating including a porch swing. Although we didn’t watch tv, each of the four bedrooms had a tv. Nice touch. We look forward to renting again. Thank you, Mark, for a memorable time for our family!

Convenient location

The property was clean and very convenient but during our stay we had difficulty with the stove and the microwave and were unable to use the stove entirely. Otherwise it was a good trip and we loved the short walk to the ocean.

Great family beach getaway spot

The owner was very easy to communicate with, and very timely in responses. The place was exactly as described, and a very easy walk to the beach. We really enjoyed using the crow's nest deck in the evening at the house. We even got to use the laundry, the outdoor shower, and the portable charcoal grill. Overall a great experience and a very relaxing time.

Excellent location and spacious place to stay

Booked this for my wife to have birthday girls weekend away. Booked it so she could have a stress free weekend away rather than stay at her family’s place nearby and have to hassle with taking linens and the like. We were very disappointed that linens are not included in the rental rate. This should be disclosed in the property listing along with a note to contact Julie’s rental on the island ahead of time to arrange rental or bring your own. The linen thing is the only reason for a 4 rating the house was awesome the view was great. The street lines up perfect with a public access point. Sunset view is amazing, spacious porches and levels would easily allow large families to let everyone have some personal space.
