My husband grew up going to the family cabin on Frye Island, but once we started our own family, we no longer fit in that cabin with everyone else. When we found this house on VRBO, We knew it would be perfect. And we were so right.
This house is significantly larger than the pictures portray, and bigger than what the outside displays upon arriving at the place. The two bedrooms downstairs (with full size beds) are good sized with nice sized closets and dressers. The bathroom is large for the size of house. The upstairs loft bedroom is not fully closed off (essentially there is no door, but there is a wall that mostly seperates it) but it is perfect for kids and teenagers to have their own room! There are two twin size beds and a trundle sized bed! The room is so cute and large. The loft family room also has a futon that is one of the most comfortable futons I've ever sat or laid on. The downstairs living room and kitchen with an eat- in nook that comfortably fits 6 were a perfect size and nice and open for other family members staying in the family cabin down the road to come and visit us during the daytime or for meals. The kitchen was very well stocked - all the things you could possibly need, including spices for cooking and other various cooking items that helped so much during our stay!
The cabin also provides a grill out back with a pleasant picnic area that was perfect for the evenings. It also has two air conditioners (one upstairs and one down) and a dehumidifier which kept the cabin a very comfortable temperature. I loved having a washer machine at the house and the simplicity of hanging clothes on the clothesline and drying rack was awesome.
The one thing that did surprise me was the fact that you need to supply your own linens. Thankfully, the owner mentioned it in our welcome packet before we arrived so she was completely honest about it and it was not an issue for us. But do be aware of the fact that you will need to provide your own sheets, bathroom towels, and beach towels.
The owners of this cabin were very accommodating, extremely generous, and super helpful. They laid out clear & simple instructions and communicated with us to be sure everything was going well at the house (it was perfect).
If you are looking for a Frye island cabin, don't hesitate to book this one. You won't regret it and you will have a wonderful time at this dream island. If I could permanently stay on the island in this cabin with my family, I would.
