"I was pleasantly surprised on how roomy & bright the house was. The owner was very nice & helpful. Upon arrival the house was spotless, it smelled & looked great. There was a new Sandpaper & an information packet on where to eat and things to do. There was 9 of us total & everyone had their own room & bed. There's even a bonus room downstairs where the kids hung out, watched movies and played games while the adults prepared some of the best meals in the fully stocked kitchen. Chairs & umbrellas were provided to the guarded beach just steps from the house. It was great easy access when the little ones had to use the potty. And we didn't even have to go into the house with our sandy toes. There's an outdoor shower & bathroom ground level. Across the street 2 blocks down is a guarded bay beach. Our kids loved it because there wasn't any big waves, the ice cream truck came every 20 minutes & there's even bathrooms there. (Note, go left on the bay beach, there's a perfect shady spot covered by the trees) We rented bikes & biked into town everyday. Either it was for breakfast sandwiches, pizza, great seafood @Harvey Cedars Seafood restaurant, an adults only wonderful dining @Black Eyed Susan's, a night cap at the Plantation with live music or ice cream. This house is great for larger families! 'll definitely be back next year!"

"Our extended family stayed here for a week in July 2016. We spent a lot of time scouring the listings before settling on this house and it did not disappoint! The location is ideal – on the ocean block, within walking distance of several restaurants and bars, and a short drive to both Fantasy Island and Acme. The house is even nicer in person. Everything is new. The layout allows for people to congregate in multiple places with some degree of privacy and autonomy, which is a nice feature in a house that sleeps so many. Families with older kids would probably appreciate having two TV areas. We really enjoyed the 2nd floor porch and the roofdeck. The kitchen is stocked with cookware and utensils and there is a barbecue out back. Owner is super nice and very responsive. He even answered a silly question we had about the ring toss game on the porch!"
