Wonderful Stay
We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was bright, spacious, clean, and the proximity to the beach was unbeatable. There was a tiny snafu at check in, but the host was extremely responsive and it was resolved as quickly as possible. Highly recommend and would stay here again.

Nice area
The property was mostly as described with a great beachfront location. It was also very clean. However, it needs a few updates. The vertical blinds in the master bedroom have several broken slats, allowing for little privacy and sun blockage. Also, the sliding glass door doesn't close all the way on the bottom, letting in the hot air. The dining table located on the balcony is completely missing the top, so essentially, it is not a table. Overall a good stay, but could use some new blinds and outdoor furniture.

House was large enough and great location.
We loved the house. We originally rented for 3 nights but decided to stay 1 more. It was quickly taken care, of. There is an unobstructed view of the beach and ocean. PERFECT. No a lot of people and no vehicles. Will definitely stay again if we decide to come back.

Awesome family getaway
When it came to the process, it was really easy, the owner was easy to talk to and to communicate with. The location is amazing, enough space for everyone, loved the view, and access to the beach. Very well stocked with essential things, and we felt very comfortable that we added a extra day, thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your home. We will be back in the future.

Loved the brach
Overall a great weekend, loved the view and the beachfront location, the kids had a blast. The house could have been an Aplus with a bit of attention. No tv as advertised in the kids room, only 2 burners worked on stovetop . Most of the mugs chipped. We had to drive 17 miles into town and buy beach chairs, manager refused to supply ‘due to COVID’ although several heavier chairs on patio so logic escapes . But we did have a great weekend

Very Nice Rental
This is the second stay for us at this home. It was squeaky clean on our arrival. Kudos to housekeepers the owner is using. The house is in a great location, is nicely furnished and is recently painted with updated flooring and counters. Really nice vacation choice and right on the beach!

Needs some work
This beach house is in need of much work. The electrical connections in the main room downstairs were out. The maintenance man said it was really needing alot of work so he put an extension cord across the main entrance to the house to get the TV working. Also he said that the door upstairs was rotten out so the air conditioning was not good. We were scared to open this door. So much for the deck. Also the dishwasher was not was not anchored to the cabinet so the bottom rack just rolls out on the floor. The house was too expensive for what you get in return.

Perfect getaway, steps from the beach!
We have a large family and the 10 of us fit comfortably in the house. There were more than enough items to use throughout the house (even in the shed to use at the beach). We brought our own but next time we know there is no need to. The master bedroom balcony sliding door is hard to open and close but the views from up there are great! The main balcony has great views as well and you are able to see your family (or friends) at the beach from it. Since there is no car access from that part of the beach, the beach is very private and feels like you own your own slice of the beach. Kids enjoyed night walks at the beach looking for crabs just to have fun. It was very quiet overall since it was a very private area. We travel a lot snd vacation a lot with family and friends. I can tell you the house was very clean (I would love to know the name of cleaning company) and the way it was presented it made us feel very welcomed. The owner/manager was very responsive when we contacted him. We recommend staying here for a nice and quiet getaway.
