McManus/Harvey Wedding

Our stay was amazing. The space was perfect for all of us. The ages of our party ranged from 21-97. We could not have asked for more. The house had everything we needed, including an elevator. The beds were comfortable, and all of our kitchen needs could not have been better accommodated for. The outside living space was perfect including the hot tub. We were but a stones throw from the beach. The final comment from the the neighbors was the best acknowledging that we were the most respectful and quietest wedding party that they lived next too. Oh if I could do it all over again. I would not change a thing. Laurie was able to answer any questions that I might have had, although few, she was able to answer each. THANK YOU THANK YOU> My best Debbie

Perfect family beach vacation spot

We loved our stay here. The home is beautiful, clean and spacious. Can’t beat the location right by the beach entrance, on a quiet street and stretch of beach, but quick drive to shops and restaurants. The home was stocked with everything you may need. Listing is accurate and we would highly recommend!

Great space for big family

We absolutely loved our stay here. Our big family had plenty of space to sleep and to hang out. The decor is lovely and the house had all the amenities we needed. I would recommend a second bike since folks usually travel in pairs. Luckily we had local family that loaned us one so it was great!

Summer Fun

We loved this beautifully adorned house in the North End. Access to the beach was easy and the shed was full of gently used water and sand toys. We enjoyed dining in (Dough Boys and EAT) and out at Dockside and Waterman's. All conveniently driveable. Due to the heat wave and high humidity we did not spend any time on the patio and the hot tub is listed as “swim” at your own risk so we passed. We loved seeing dolphins right off the beach every day! You can also get to the state park easily walking a few blocks down. There is an A and B listing on the property - the other guests were quiet and respectful. Driveway parking only. ❤️🐬🏖
