We booked a last minute stay at the Razor's Edge a few weekends ago. Even though we were last-minute guests, Joel and Denise were very responsive, making the booking process easy. We found the house to be clean and comfortable. While the house is not on the beach, it is just a short walk away, which made it easy for us to go back and forth to what is a very nice, quiet stretch of beach several times a day.
The yard is fantastic for dogs, and the owners thoughtfully left a dog bowl, poop bags and treats for the stay. It was nice to be able to let the dogs run around outside and not have them on a leash all the time. Although it was rainy most of the time we were there, making it difficult to properly enjoy the outdoor space, I can imagine what a wonderful place it would be in nicer weather. There is a large sitting area and fire-pit out back, as well as a dining area on the deck right outside the kitchen which would be perfect for meals on sunny days. There is even a fountain with a resident fish to add to the experience.
While we did not do much cooking, the kitchen was very well equipped and had nice ceramic plates and bowls. The house itself was a bit quirky, filled with older furniture, making it feel a bit like staying at an older relative's home. The bathroom could use some remodeling and the fact that there is only one, while fine for our small family of three, might be a bit of a problem for a larger group. However, the house had a roomy feel with a nice sized living room and bedrooms. Although the house was cold with a musty smell when we arrived, we found the wood stove to be a wonderful touch and we were warm and cozy once we got it started.
In all, we had a very nice stay. I feel like this house is a great option for families with several children and a dog or two...families with just two kids could even have grandparents come too. Once you close the front gate, you have your own private area, and the kids and dogs can run around without worry. If you are looking for a comfortable place to stay with convenient beach access, this is a great place to come!
