We absolutely loved this vacation house. We had to change a few things around and the owner was fabulous with our circumstances. It was the perfect location for our kids, ranging from ages 2-10. It was clean and everything they put online was extremely accurate. We would 100% stay here again! Highly recommend!

The house was perfect for us. The kids loved the bunk room and the house was roomy enough for everyone to be comfortable. Location is perfect! Cross the street and down the boardwalk to the beach.
I hope to rent again one day.

Hi Brett and thanks for the feedback. We are happy to hear that the house was a good fit for your group! Yes, one of the Morgantown pools has been an ongoing challenge. The POA had been struggling for months and ended up draining and resurfacing it so it looks great now. There are actually two pools in the neighborhood. The second pool isn't visible from the road, it is located behind the tennis counts. We hope you'll plan a return visit soon.

We had a great time this summer during our stay. Very close to the beach and to the pool! Everything was as described, no problems at all. Would absolutely stay here again. There were 2 seniors, 3 adults, and 3 teens in our party. :)

The house was nice but was overly decorated. Beach access was close. The only pool that was open was crowded, one was closed.

House was perfect location with easy access to beach and pools. We love this neighborhood as we have rented other houses here for years and this property was just as lovely- almost as good as being right on beach with the boardwalk right across the street. It was also family & pet friendly which was great! We didn’t have great weather but the house was well stocked for cooking and we enjoyed the board games and video games we brought along. Plenty of room for our family of 5!

Hi Erica and thanks for the positive feedback. Glad to hear you and your family had a good time. We'd love to welcome you back in the near future.
The house fit our extended family perfectly. My husband and I used the bedroom downstairs with our grandkids in the bunk room. My 3 children and their spouses slept upstairs. Having 4 king size beds was a big plus. Plenty of room in the family room and kitchen area for all to watch ballgames and a big table for card games. We were able to host Thanksgiving for 4 other family’s staying in the neighborhood with all the outside seating too.

Great location clean and very close proximity to beach access. The house had most everything. If you’ve stayed in other houses in this subdivision you’ll be impressed by the amount of space and sleeping accommodations. You will need to make sure you pack salt, pepper and The basics. We had a great week.

We just finished a week at this rental and had an outstanding time together. There were 16 of us in all. The house is very conveniently located to both the pools and the beach. We also enjoyed pickleball, tennis, and riding our bikes through the neighborhood. Coastal View Vacations was a pleasure to deal with. I had a number of questions before we left, and they were very responsive in answering them. Could not recommend more highly.

We had a wonderful experience at this property. Great location close to the beach access and pool and very clean. I have never stayed at a VRBO with so many kitchen supplies, there is plenty of everything from silverware to pots and pans. We had my whole family of 16 so that was a great asset to have as we cooked almost every night. Such a great friendly neighborhood. The property manager was very nice and came by to check on us several times. If you are looking for a beautiful and spacious place defiantly check this one out.
