This is a wonderful house. As in title, the location is great - right near the beach and the canal, close to restaurants etc. But the star is the house - perfect for a group, lots of places to hang out with people or catch a little alone time, from comfy chairs to a hammock, huge table for dinner together inside or out, and a few separate living rooms to chill. Comms with mgt team excellent. Only suggestion was the outdoor furniture needed a wipe down before our arrival.

When we arrived, a toilet was running. After contacting the company, they said they'd send someone out to fix it. It was never fixed so we'd have to adjust something in the tank to get the water to stop running. We saw 4 large roaches and a handful of baby roaches (including on the kitchen counter). Maintenance offered to spray but it would just drive out the bugs while we're there. I told them about 2 dead ones for when maintenance came to fix the toilet in hopes they'd clean up the dead bugs. They didn't. One room had the lights turn on in the middle of the night while someone was sleeping. For the price we paid, it was not a good experience.

Our 2022 WB Vacation

This is a lovely old house that has been upgraded over the years. Everything was clean and the house is well equipped. Having the kitchen on the second floor took some getting used to. The noise from North Lumina wasn't as bad as we had expected. We appreciated the beach equipment that was available for our use. We missed having an outside clothesline on which to dry our bathing suits and towels.

Quaint but roomy beach cottage

Enjoyed our weekend stay here with 4 other couples and didn’t feel too crowded. We easily walked to the beach, restaurants etc. The table was great for serving a big group, and we especially enjoyed the upstairs deck.

We loved our stay here. It had so much charm and many alcoves of rooms within the house. SO many porches, too!! It was awesome that we property was a short walk from retail/restaurants and right down the street from the beach.

Would be a 5 with a few upgrades

Location is perfect. Many amenities - nice grill, bikes, beach towels and chairs. Kitchen is well stocked. Beds are comfortable. Large porches, decks, kitchen table. All pluses! However, the owners need to fix or replace the dishwasher. Somehow dishes come out of it dirtier and greasier than when the machine was loaded. This is a negative when you are on vacation and especially with a home full of 11 people! We are on vacation and do not want to hand wash all those dishes. I noticed this on previous reviews and thought that of course it would have been fixed by now. No! It's a pain. Pocket doors in master bedroom are very heavy, do not slide easily, and thus are very loud. A definite negative when you are sharing a room. Very disappointed in how management dealt with the one issue we had during our stay. About 11 Pm one night we discovered all the outlets in the kitchen were out. We had not been home so do not know how long they were out. But this meant the refrigerator had no power. We called the management number and were told they would report it to Brittany and cautioned us to keep our refrigerator door closed. We looked all over the house for the circuit breaker and asked this question of the management person I spoke with. No one reached out until 8 AM the next morning! A maintenance man came by and pulled the painting off the wall by the kitchen table and the circuit breaker was behind that. Fixed in 30 seconds. We could have easily fixed this problem and thrown the switch the night before if someone had just returned my call. Would be a good idea to provide that information in the book about the house. We had a good week. Enjoyed our time. Will consider returning if assured the dishwasher and doors have been addressed.

Even better in person! This location couldn't be better with access to the beach in front and the best spot to watch the sunset in the back. Highly recommend Sea Scape Properties for the ease of booking this vacation home, they went above and beyond to meet our needs!

Great for groups

We rented this for a group of friends. The set up fir what we needed was perfect. Multiple porches, amazing dining table for gatherings, cute coffee/tea prep area. It has the beach cottage feel I love. One fro t room needed attention to an odor but I contacted seascape and they were going to look into it. Overall, a great house.

Close to the beach - great for larger groups - outdoor spaces!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this house is amazing given it’s right at a public access. We also loved the various outdoor living spaces (screened in porch, seconds floor porch with hammock, rooftop sitting with firepit. It’s great for larger groups / family (and not just in bedrooms but in sitting areas, eating areas, etc.). There are numerous amenities - they had an outdoor foosball table, firepit, grill, hammock, kids toys, Roku TVs in most rooms, and all of the beach gear you could imagine (bicycles, chairs, umbrellas, toys, wagon, etc.). A few improvements could be made to make this a 5-star rental: fix the dishwasher (had to hand wash mostly as the top rack did not clean and bottom rack struggled), fix ice maker (maybe 6 cubes every 3-4 hours), ensure all lights work / are bright and fix the shutters (almost every wooden shutter was broken making it hard to open / close). Adding a water filtration system could likely solve the dishwasher / ice maker issues and also remove the strong “beach water” smell and taste - making it drinkable / more pleasant. I’d also recommend floor mats for the bathrooms.

Wonderful Weekend at A Shore Thing!

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 had a great time at A Shore Thing! The house has everything you need for a wonderful vacation. There were very nice beach chairs, towels, bikes, games etc. The kitchen table is massive and we enjoyed not only eating there but playing games with the family. The location was perfect...close to town and the beach and we would definitely stay here again! I would, however, recommend that the cleaning crew leave the ice machine on so when guests arrive, the ice is ready. Also, the outside deck needs to be sprayed for bugs. The biggest complaint in the group of 12 is that we should have stayed another night! Thank you!
