Melinda was so helpful and friendly! She was quick to respond to all of my questions before and during our stay. Her home was so cute and comfortable! I loved the privacy of the upstairs master, en-suite, and balcony! My teenager loved hanging out and playing on the gaming systems in the bunk room. He ended up playing musical beds and sleeping in that room as well as the other bedroom downstairs with the larger (full size?) bed. The house had everything we needed and then some. We cooked and baked a cake together in the well-appointed kitchen and watched movies on the big screen TV snuggled up with a couple of (the many) throw blankets on the comfy couches in the large living room. We ate out a few times, but mostly brought in food or cooked at home and ate together at the lovely (huge) dining table.
Even though the weather wasn't ideal, we took advantage of the tandem kayak and had a blast! I still can't believe I talked my 16-year-old into it! We also really enjoyed being so close to the beach even though it was too cold to get in. It was my dogs' first time at the beach and it was really special making memories with my son, collecting shells, and watching my dogs experience the ocean for the first time.
All in all, it was a very successful trip due largely to our accommodations and wonderful hosts! It was a 10 out of 10 experience all the way around. I would absolutely recommend this rental if you want to make memories with your loved ones and truly feel like you are at your home away from home right by the ocean!
