Great beach location, could be better equipped

We spent a week here with a group of 15, and really enjoyed the quiet beach location at this access. The house was very nice and had enough space to accommodate us all. It would be nice to have more linens provided - for example we could only find one dish towel and had to use bath towels for all of our cooking/cleaning of the kitchen. We also did laundry daily to have enough bath towels for everyone. It was pretty clean but still had some dog hair on a comforter and some sand on the floors, the oven hadn’t been cleaned out. Our family was pleasantly surprised to find a gas grill downstairs that we used a few times! The hot tub was well serviced. We enjoyed the large lot size so the kids could play baseball out in the driveway area. Overall a nice place to stay just bring more dish towels and possibly bath towels depending on how many people you have!

Decent spot

This was a typical stay. The hot tub was nice. The views were beautiful. Perfect distance from the beach. There was nothing that was super spectacular about the place, but it was overall a good place. It could use updates on paint, a working microwave, and the cleaning crew could pay better attention to detail. A BBQ grill would have been a nice option.

The property was close to the beach with a terrific view of the ocean and intercoastal waterway. There was plenty of space for everyone and the deck had gates at either end allowing us to feel safe that the dogs and children were able to move from inside the house to outside without worry.

Thanksgiving week at beach

The dual views of the sound and ocean are delightful. We enjoyed the deck and hot tub. Kitchen is equipped and we appreciated the cleanliness of kitchen and bathrooms. Parking is easy. Bedrooms mostly are large. Foam toppers on the mattresses. The LR furniture needs a refresh and the living room isn’t large enough for the # of bedrooms in the house, considering it is the only inside gathering space. We had 9 adults and 2 children. May be less of an issue in the summer but something to consider if you have a big group.

Great large house across the street from the beach.

Our family enjoyed our time at this house. For our needs perfectly. Just had to walk across the street to the beach and easy to go back to the house for the rest room and a quick bite for lunch.

Great Stay

Can’t beat the location and views of this beach house. So close to the ocean and grocery stores, restaurants, and shops are nearby. Lots of space to spread out and the large deck with a hot tub was amazing. Make sure to bring your own beach chairs, umbrella, toys etc as they aren’t provided. Hosts were communicative and helpful. Easy check in and out process. We would happily stay here again!

Christmas Getaway

The family really enjoyed the house. We got plenty of exercise as we climbed steps on every level. The adults loved the spaciness and ability to get away without leaving the house. The kids truly loved the 3rd level and the play area. The view from the home of the sound and the ocean was special. The home provided everything we needed. I have already shown the pictures of the property to my friends.
