This was a wonderful house to stay in accommodating 5 adults and 2 kids. There was plenty of space for everyone. It was a great location on a quiet road close to a beach access. The only complaint we all had is the living/kitchen area was on the 3rd floor. It took a few days for it to cool off. It made it worse if we cooked on the stove/oven. If the air was set to around 75 instead of 80, it may not have been as bad. Maybe if you have the cleaning crew set it to a lower temp after they clean if guests are suppose to arrive that day, that may help. The dishwasher wasn’t installed very well. It took us a few times to get it running. Also, having an ice maker/water would’ve been very convenient. We had to purchase at least 10 bags of ice for the week. Overall, the stay was pleasant. We mostly stayed on the beach 5-7 hours per day.

This property was ideal for our needs. The only small bump was the beds weren't made when we arrived. I rented linens from the recommended company and their website stated the fee covered beds being made upon arrival. Not a big issue just thought you might want to know for future reference.

Property had its ups and downs. Location was amazing. Property was not very clean when we arrived. We did our best to keep things clean and organized throughout the stay and still got charged with extra cleaning fees. The property in general was unkept and outdated.

We stayed at this location for a full week with a wide age range of kiddos, other than needing to get a baby gate for the stairs for our 1 year old we had no major issues within the home! What minimal problems there were the hosts were great at addressing quickly & were easily reached when needed

Group of 10 family vacation

This home was in a great location, quiet neighborhood and a short easy walk to the beach. We enjoyed having the use of both decks and the swings were great, the common area was perfectly laid out for a large family and we appreciate the use of the wagon and beach chairs. However, there was lack of communication prior to the trip, leaving us unaware that towels, toilet paper, paper towels and linens were not provided until a few hours before check-in.  So be aware you will need to provide these items for your trip.

Great Family Get-Together Place

Our family get-together of 10 really enjoyed our stay. The location was private and quiet, while having close access to the beach. The owners were very responsive and accomodating to our requests. One of our littles accidentally left a stuffy at the rental, and John was able to find it and ship it out to us - we really appreciated the quick responses and helpfulness! We would definitely recommend a stay here and will be back!

Find another place

We returned to this house because it is in a nice location. The house wasn’t very clean last year, but doable. The refrigerator had cooling issues last year, and nothing was changed or corrected. It smelled like rotten fish. This year it was much worse and we had a/c unit issues which resulted in a ceiling coming down in the bathroom on the second floor. Communication with the owner was subpar. Apparently, according to the a/c repair company, the problem has been ignored, repeatedly. He grudgingly reimbursed our family for two days and a ruined overnight bag, where we dealt with issues since mid-week. We are a family of 12 that had to manage using just two bathrooms. I would suggest finding other accommodations. With the right ownership, this would be a lovely property.

Great Family Vacation House

This house was perfect for my family and my sister's family. There was plenty of space and the main living space was large enough for all of us! Not sure if it was my lack of reading about the house, but the top 3rd floor that has the queen bedroom is also were the kitchen, living room and dining room are too. I assumed the 3rd floor only had the one bedroom and bathroom. thanks for letting us stay at your house!

Nice but could have been cleaner

Older property that could use a good cleaning and some fresh paint, new carpets and updates in the bedrooms. Although the kitchen is beautiful and has a lot of nice features and updates it had minimal supplies, pots that looked like they had been used over a campfire, and no sharp knives for cutting things like vegetables. If you’re looking for a large house with a nice amount of bedrooms and bathrooms and don’t necessarily care about aesthetics then this is a great place to stay!

Nice Place

In general the place is nice and has plenty of space. The cleaning crew should be ashamed of the quality of work. Soap scum on shower door, baseboards haven't been dusted in weeks, dust on ceiling fans and registers, there was even a pile of dirt left in the corner of the kitchen. I am not one to want to look for a full reimbursement but I feel that I should not be charged for the cleaning service as it was not clean when we arrived. Hoping the property owner/management will take care of the cleanliness. Other than that home accommodated our needs.
