What a fun house to stay in! Beautiful artwork made it extra special. Good common space- great table for large family gatherings and games. Outdoor showers were a big plus.

Thank you so much for your kind review! I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful artwork and the spacious common area, which sounds perfect for large family gatherings and games. The outdoor showers also seem to have been a wonderful addition to your stay. I appreciate you taking the time to share your positive experience, and I hope you'll consider staying with us again in the future!
Fantastic place to stay! Only complaint, was having to use a physical key. A keypad would be much more convenient. 10/10 rating though!

Thank you for your review of our property. We appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that you had an overall positive experience. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again.
All in all, everything was great, but I would wish that the property supplied good beach chairs, and a beach wagon. My husband is a pilot and we flew our family in so we couldn’t bring ours.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your feedback regarding the beach equiptment. As flying travelers, we understand the challenge of traveling with additional equipment. We're glad to hear that overall, you had a great experience with our property. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
A Shore Cure was an excellent home for our family vacation! The home was spacious with plenty of room for our 11 family members, ranging in ages from 16 to 70. The living room was large enough for us all to gather and spend time together, with a beautiful view of the beach and ocean. The home was spacious, clean, and updated. Kitchen was well stocked with updated appliances, and there was even a second full size refrigerator in one of the garages.
The outdoor space was set up well with an outdoor shower and plenty of spigots and hoses to rinse off sand. The volleyball court was a great addition!
One note for larger families, is that there are only 4 bathrooms (as advertised). The upstairs is set up with 3 king bedrooms facing the ocean with a bedroom with two twin beds. One king bedroom has an en suite bathroom. One king and the twin bedroom share a jack and jill bathroom, leaving one king bedroom the inability to access a bathroom without entering through someone else's bedroom. The bedroom downstairs is a very large area with 6 bunk beds and 2 trundle beds, easily sleeping 8 with their own full bathroom, perfect for teens and kids who enjoy their own space.
We loved the home and are checking our calendars to make reservations again for next year!
The home is beautiful and we had a very nice time. Unfortunately, the home next-door was being demolished and removed beginning on the second day of our stay and continuing for four days. So it was a bit like having an expensive vacation in the middle of an endlessly loud construction site; crashes, thumping and beeping trucks included. We often had to head inside to avoid Sheetrock/insulation dust. Certainly a rare occurrence, and when I don’t anticipate future renters will have to deal with, but for us it was a bummer. The home and location are beautiful.
