Fun family get away

We had a great time. It was my family of 4, plus each kid got to bring a friend totally 6 of us. Location is excellent. It is further away from the seawall than I originally thought. Neighborhood was good. Clean, seamless check in and was a comfortable stay. Best part is it's literally on the beach, front row!

Perfect Beachfront Getaway

We get together with cousins at a beach house every year and this house has been our favorite so far! Really efficiently laid out for two families, and you really cannot beat being 10 steps from the beach! Everyone wants to come back to this house next year!

Thank you for this treasure of a beach house. It was perfect for the 10 of us. Plenty of gathering space, rooms were just right for the grandkids. Kitchen was well stocked with appliances, utensils, spices etc.. Beach was just right there, and we loved our time here. Looking forward to returning.

Great location and family friendly!

Loved the location of the house, easy access to beach. Accross the street is a great marina/bar and down the road about 4 miles you will find a great mexican restaurant! House was clean - only thing I would be aware of is the first guest bedroom has the vent from dryer going into closet, really heating the room up. Other than that, was a great experience!

Perfect by the beach

The house was great for us, we had to sets of parents and several kids that stayed. The house was perfect - bunk room for boys and bunk room for girls. The kitchen was big enough to cook for everyone and table was nice and big as well. Beds were comfy, balcony was so perfect with chaos, and location on the beach ... can't be beat. The kids loved the skim board, boogie boards, and sand toss as well. We'll be back!

Great house

There were three adults, five teenagers and a six year old in our group. Everyone loved the house. It was super clean, easy to get to, wonderful location on the beach and had everything we needed. The door took us a minute to figure out (because it’s new and amazing lol) and the parking was a little confusing at first (since the notes said not to park under the house) but all in all, we loved our beach vacation and this house was a huge part of the reason why.
