Great house for families!

We loved our stay- the house and pool were beautiful and in an ideal, private location. The management was highly responsive and brought us everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked with up to date, clean materials and dish ware. The crofter was good but the TV didn’t work and one of the showers never turned on- definitely needs attention. But would definitely stay here again!

Lovely Home

Sandy Cheeks was a lovely, well equipped home. The kitchen was fabulous and all the spaces cozy. The few minor issues we had (normal for a beach stay) were addressed and resolved quickly. It was a great BHI home, especially for people with older children, hopefully will be back next year!

Beautiful home and pool, lovely finishes and cabinetry, very well stocked kitchen supplies. The two large primary suites were for our 2 couples travelling with their babies and they were wonderful rooms. That left the other two bedrooms (in the crofter) for the grandparents and another adult couple. With the crofter beds pushed against the side wall of the bedroom and only one nightstand in those rooms, the crofter bedrooms were a little tight for 4 adults.The main house does have a couple steps between several areas which might not be great for toddlers or elderly. We LOVED the outdoor terrace and pool and used it a lot! The mid-island location was super convenient, the property manager was very responsive with small glitches (normal stuff), and we enjoyed the architecture of the home and its art.

Thank you so much for our wonderful stay at your beautiful property!! You were so accommodating regarding our ferry times and early arrival/departures, and we are extremely grateful. I wasn’t in the guest house, so I’ll speak to the main home. This home was so beautiful! It was so easy for everyone to be in one central location, if we wanted. Whether it was playing Cards Against Humanity at the table, or watching a movie on the amazing couch upstairs. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our meals. We spent most of our time in the pool, where my family decided the volley ball net ends resembled some human anatomy. So, any time one of us left the house, the net was placed in that person’s shower. It was a funny time. Above all, we had a wonderful family vacation and thank you!

Amazing Property- You Won’t Be Disappointed!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay at Sandy Cheeks! The home is beautiful and very well cared for. It is well-appointed with anything you could need. We loved the pool and outdoor space, as it gave us a way to cool off and play, but felt secluded and peaceful. Having the crofter space allowed us to have some family and friends come visit for a few nights, while giving them their own space. Tyler & Barbara are fantastic property managers- extremely quick to respond and help with questions/requests. We love BHI and now that we’ve found Sandy Cheeks agreed we can’t “downgrade” to another home next year- we’ll be back!

Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay, loved that there was a separate house for two of our families with smaller children. The kitchen was well stocked and full of high-end appliances with a beautiful wine cooler. The pool gave us hours of fun, had lots of seating and shade on the far side. This was our first time in 11 years staying in the woods away from the beach. While it was a quick drive to get to the water, it’s the only reason I gave location 4 stars, missing the ocean view.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Spent 5 days here in early November. This house is extremely well located and private. Huge guest cottage allowed for parents and kids to be in separate houses, which resulted in lots of quite time for the parents. Will probably rent again in the future.

Just book it!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is stunning! It is even more beautiful in person than it is in the pictures. It is extremely close to the beach, but also feels very private and serene because there are a lot of trees surrounding the house. I would book this place for the master bathroom alone, the shower was an entire room! The house has a lot of entertainment rooms and TVs, and wifi was strong in all areas of the house. The kitchen is spacious and has all the cabinets, utensils, and cooking equipment you could need if you are planning to bring some groceries and cook meals during your stay. It also has multiple large desks if you have to get work done. The pool was a huge hit and enabled us to swim, grill, and lounge outside together making for some really enjoyable laid-back nights. Tyler and Barbara took care of every question we had and even brought us toothbrushes our first night when we realized a few us forgot to pack them. We will definitely be returning next year!
