Beach Haven

"This is out third consecutive year staying in this house for two weeks in the summer. We come back for a reason. Everything is exactly as advertised (if not better). The owners are great and easy to deal with. The house is just perfect for my family. We have three sons one of which is married with two young children. (The floors all have child gates on the stairwells which is a nice plus.) Everyone comes down as their schedule allows and when all are there with their significant others we have 9 people in the house. The house EASILY accommodates everyone and with three large decks, and a huge top floor dining/family area the house seems twice the stated size. The huge dining table makes for great family dinners and late night board game play. The roof deck has clear bay and ocean views and the sunsets are a nightly "must see" for all. You can see from the Lighthouse to the Causeway and beyond from the large seating area up top. Whether a Cigar and a Bourbon or just beautiful starry nights are your idea of relaxing, the roof deck is he place to be. As far as the beach, it is literally a 60 second trip to the beach from the front door. The location beach wise is as ideal as any on the island. Beautiful dunes, deep beach, lifeguard station 50 yards from walkway onto beach and NEVER a crowd like the more central or southern located beaches are. The street is quiet and isn't invaded by anyone other than the residents of 85th street. New couches upstairs this year added to the comfort level. Last year all decks were painted and resurfaced. every year the house is kept up and something added or freshened up. I honestly can't think of a negative. Neptune Market is a GREAT package store (TRY THEIR CRUMBCAKE!!!) that is one block away. If you want a great gourmet meal Black Eyed Susan's is our fave and its just two blocks away. The Harvey Cedars park is a great spot for bay sunsets, crabbing, and has an awesome playground for the kiddies. I'd tell you more but I need to contact the owners and book our two weeks for next year before YOU DO! John"
