Girl Scout family beach trip
Hi Angie! Our GS troop stayed in the house 2 doors down so this house was occupied by 4 families. The house was beautiful, clean, and was exactly what we needed. We have neurodivergent children and a couple of our kids needed extra space and quiet/down time, and this house accommodated each family with the space and soothing surroundings. Checkin and check out was so easy. Thank you for hosting our group! We had a wonderful visit! Please LMK if you need anything further from me!

Better than advertised
My friends and family gathered to celebrate a birthday for the weekend and were so impressed by this home.
We have stayed in several rentals in the area over the years, but this was by far the best. Sleeping arrangements were great, beach views as advertised, plenty of space, and host was amazing and communicative.

FAMILY REUNION
We rented 4 homes within a half mile of each other and 2 were next door. This house was our hospitality house and meals were served from here. The porch was amazing in morning and evening - a nice breeze and perfect temperature. The hosts were super accomodating. Beds were comfortable and rooms were quiet. Short walk to beach. Can't wait to return!

Great family beach house
Bright, big, comfortable house and easy access to the beach. Nice spacious kitchen, plenty of beds and spaces to play when relaxing indoors and a short easy walk to the beach. Angie was a fantastic host. Great communication and went above and beyond to help locate something we left behind.
