The views were amazing as was the convenience of the direct access to the beach. The 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths were more than enough space for hubby and myself. Kitchen had everything you needed. The outside deck and swing were wonderful. Also, the house is located close to everything and makes for a wonderful golf cart ride to restaurants, shops and events going on at Middleton Park.

My family and I had a wonderful time. The beach home was very charming and reminded me of a cabin my grandmother used to have in the Pocono Mountains. It had everything we needed. The area was very quiet and peaceful and the view of the ocean was gorgeous. I loved all of the windows in the living room. We loved the swing and really enjoyed the view of the ocean. Renee was so helpful in giving me recommendations on places to eat. We loved the Pepperoni Grill across the street and we loved Fishy Fishy in Southport. The beach is beautiful and easily accessible off the back deck. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us.

A Rare Gem and a Serene GetawayThis stay was a beautiful throwback to simpler times, complete with unobstructed ocean views right from our very own porch swing. Our days were filled with early morning pelican parades and evenings spent unwinding with a glass of wine. Nothing could have been more serene.The proximity to the beach is unsurpassed; it truly felt like having a private beach. We spent three wonderful days listening to the soothing lull of the waves and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere.Inside, the home was immaculate. The kitchen was clean and well-stocked, the bed was comfortable, and everything needed for the stay was provided.The host was outstanding and highly accommodating, communicating quickly and seamlessly if anything came up. When we experienced a minor snafu on our end that caused an inconvenience, it was handled with the utmost grace and kindness, ensuring we never felt like an imposition.Thank you for the incredible hospitality and kindness during this peaceful three-day stay.

There are houses at the beach and then there are beach houses. They seem the same but the beach house has a soul which this property has. It was simple, clean and comfortable. I'm sure it's been the center of many a great vacation. I'm sure I will be back.

We have been to the Po Boy a couple times now and it is great for our family! You can't beat the ocean front views and it has everything you need. Plus you are so close to great dining and activities in Southport.

Great beach getaway

The house was perfect for what we were looking for. Oceanfront, very clean and a t.v. in every bedroom. It is also steps away from a grill which made grabbing food easy. We really enjoyed our stay!

Steps to the beach

Great beach house, location is perfect! Kids loved how close we were to the beach and the swing on the deck was so relaxing. Very close drive to the grocery store and shops. Everyone slept great, and house had everything we needed.
