We had a wonderful week at this beach house with our family! The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We especially loved spending time in the rocking chairs on the multiple patios. The beach equipment that was provided was such a convenience.The owner was responsive and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We truly appreciated the hospitality and attention to detail in all the instructions provided. We would stay here again and highly recommend this home.

Thank you! Three years running for the same week? I’m honored. It’s your spot. AND you posted a review the same day you checked out? Truly appreciative and humbled. I’ll save the week for you next year too. That’s one of the beauties of managing my own property. Gold glove treatment. I have you covered. Thanks for entrusting us with another week of family memories. Since I never once experienced a vacation as a kid, it is my passion to provide the best of all you need for yours. Thanks again!!

Thank you for your review and five stars. We have also rented as vacationers, and the things I learned have been applied to our house. Quality sleep and a well equipped kitchen are high on the priority list, and the fabulous view of the marsh and inlet adds to relaxing for the week. It was a pleasure to host you!

Perfect for our family vacation!

This was a great spot to stay, not too far from the beach access which made transporting the beach supplies easy. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed and the house was very clean on our arrival. There was a great stash of beach gear including sand toys, chairs and games. The owners were very helpful and responded very quickly when contacted. We really enjoyed our stay!

Great place!

The house was really nicely equipped for our family’s beach trip. We loved all the beach gear, games, and TV setup. The owner was super nice and communicative. The beach access was easy and convenient. We have also stayed at places owned and managed by companies, and this was so much warmer of an experience.

Wonderful stay!

This property was everything we were looking for in a beach home away from home. The marsh view was incredible. Plenty of room for everyone. Very well stocked with everything you might need for your vacation-chairs, umbrellas, pull carts for the beach, games, etc. The owner was very helpful and quick to respond. Very short 2 min walk to beach via deeded access boardwalk. A wonderful trip in Holden!
