Great accommodations, close to the beach, wonderful communications, screen porch is beautiful, kitchen has all one needs for cooking and serving. The house is beautifully decorated and has a good vibe to it. It's different than other beach places and that is what I liked about it. Will stay here again!

This was a darling and cozy house. I loved the retro decor. It is a 1-2 minute walk to the beach, and less than 5 minutes drive to several eateries. The house had a screen deck that was my favorite place to sit. You could enjoy sitting outside without getting bitten by mosquitos. The house is actually much bigger on the inside that it appears from outside. The kitchen has all the appliances, dishes, cookware, etc that you could need. We were there for an entire week, so we did a lot of cooking and eating at the house. It was perfect. There's also several sitting areas and a large dining table. Overall we liked the house a lot. We definitely would stay there again.

We absolutely loved our stay! These hosts are amazing and made us feel so welcome with s sweet note and welcome basket! As many have already shared, the property was extremely clean and well-equipped. Meal preparation was a breeze because there is literally everything you need including an electric grill which worked great! We ate every meal on the screened in porch which is positively delightful! You can hear the ocean and feel the marvelous breezes while relaxing in the rockers, porch swing, or when sitting at the picnic table. Our 7 and 4-year-old grandchildren loved the bunkbeds and the area to play under the cottage. And it is very close to the not-crowded beach. We spent part of every day there! We are really hoping that we can go again! Five stars!!!
I brought dishes to make a cheese fondue on the porch one night!

Great place to stay! It was just me and a friend that stayed here, but there was room for more. All of the rooms were decorated so nicely, you can tell the owners take pride in this rental. No, it wasn’t the newest house on the street, but it had so much character, and the layout of the rooms was great also. Our favorite part was the screened in porch. We stayed out there pretty much every evening and you could the ocean waves from it. I didn’t notice any other houses around us that had screened in porches so we felt quite special with ours lol. We had a minor problem the first morning but as soon as I contacted the owners they were right on it and it was fixed that afternoon, and they even checked on us later to make sure everything was still ok. As for necessities, this house had everything we needed. Seriously, we didn’t need anything. The kitchen had every utensil you could think of and plenty of cookware and dishes. It’s not right on the ocean but only a short walk away, less than two minutes, and you don’t have to cross a street. It was actually closer than when we stayed in a condo last year, we didn’t have to go up and down an elevator, walk thru a lobby, and than down a long boardwalk just to get to the beach. I would highly recommend this place, and I hope to go back there someday.

Wonderful Stay

Just what we were looking for to get away for two weeks. House is warm and cozy. While we were there it was both warm and cold and everything was fine. Steps away from the beach and everything you need for an enjoyable stay. House has everything you need along with gracious hosts.

Vintage and Cozy Beach House

This place had everything my family needed for a great price. The bathrooms and kitchen were very nicely done, looks like a recent remodel. The home was very tastefully decorated with lots of mid-century modern furniture, decor, and kitchenware. The home has a washer and dryer and a cordless vacuum to get all the sand up! Would definitely recommend anyone to stay there. The beach is literally a few minutes away just over the dunes.
