There is a stacked washer and dryer off to the side, so you won't worry about wet towels and sandy swimsuits. Two bedrooms are located on each side of the house, combined with Jack-and-Jill bathrooms. No bedroom is decorated the same, and you'll admire the thought put into each one. All bedrooms besides the master have additional seating so you can bury your nose in a book before bed, but don't worry - wireless internet access is included. There is a large television mounted in the living room. Other televisions are wall-mounted in both bunk bed bedrooms. The bunk room with a standard twin-over-twin bunk bed also contains a twin trundle for extra sleeping space. This vacation rental welcomes one well-behaved and house-trained dog, weighing 35 pounds or less, per reservation year-round. For the courtesy of all our guests, our House Rules are that dog is not allowed on the furniture or beds, must be flea and tick free, is healthy and up to date on shots. Dog is not allowed in swimming pool and must be nonaggressive and friendly (as service personnel may be onsite for lawncare/pool cleaning/exterminator/etc). We know your dog is part of your family and want them to feel welcome too, but also want all guests to enjoy the clean and comfortable feeling of our house! Please note that no cats are allowed, as the owners are allergic and cats are prohibited at all of OIA's vacation rentals. The fenced-in outdoor oasis is highlighted with an inground saltwater pool and a jetted seating area. Heating is even available upon request for those chillier evenings. Plenty of space for sunning in the loungers by the pool. Enjoy dining and socializing under the sunshade by day and carnival lights by night. There's also a spacious grassy play area for games! On the front of the house, there's a screened-in porch with comfortable seating and a cafe table to enjoy your morning coffee, listen to the ocean and smell the salt air.
