Perfect family beach vacation with dog

We had such a wonderful time staying in this pet-friendly home just a short walk from the beach. The apartment was very clean and the hosts were amazing. Would highly recommend for anyone traveling with pets.

Very convenient and comfortable!

Lovely, relaxing stay! Very clean. The upstairs open porch is great for enjoying breakfast, and all meals at home, or just relaxing with a book and/or a drink.

Great place to stay

The unit was more spacious than we expected - there was more than enough room for 3 adults and 4 kids. It was clean, the kitchen was well equipped, and checking in and out was easy.The location is great. Minutes away from the beach and the south end of the boardwalk, but distant enough to be quiet.The one thing that could be improved is the pullout sofa mattress, which sinks and provides very little support. Other than that, no complaints.

Easy, exactly what we needed, great location

Just a couple of blocks from one of the motels we used to stay at when I was a kid (family's been doing vacations there since before I was born!); so a couple of blocks to the beach, a few more from the beginning of the boardwalk, and right near a bike rental. Pete and Beth were excellent; there was a slight snafu with the keybox code (my fault, actually!), but we were able to get in anyway, and they came over that evening to work it out. They let us linger a bit on the last day with zero problem (rented a crib and the owners had some scheduling conflicts, it all worked out nicely!). The apartment was just right; nice size, plenty of room (only three adults, a toddler, and a dog). Everything worked as it should. It was a great place to grab some time away for the very end of the summer, and do a great Wildwood trip (which we try to do every year!).

What appealed to our family was being able to bring our own linens and the dog. We also appreciated that there was no heavy smell of perfumes or cleaning chemicals in the home and it was very clean.
