Great place, great management, great balconies

6 guys down for fishing trip. Very comfy, clean house with a good location. Loads of parking and close to the beach. Had bad luck with the AC in the garage bed rooms go out but the management company were quick to respond and had a guy out to service it on a saturday afternoon. Thank you Cheryl!

Excellent property

This was an excellent property. The house was clean, well laid out, and the AC worked well. It was close to the beach, and well stocked with appliances and utensils. We would happily book again. Just some FYI's to other folks. Due to the size of the dunes, it is very difficult to see the beach from the house. In addition, the walking path is difficult (1/4 mile long and about 6 stories of elevation changes) even for our very much in-shape young adults. Plan on needing to drive to the beach for anyone that's not in peak physical condition. The house does not come well stocked with soaps/toilet paper/etc. A couple of days at most so bring some with you, or expect to buy it. They were kind enough to give us a second "welcome package".

Great House!

This house was great for our group of twelve. Super spacious and clean. The kitchen was nicely stocked for cooking and dining. I hope at some point they install a connecting bathroom for the two rooms downstairs. That would make this house PERFECT! The area was nice and quiet. The boardwalk was a little sketchy to navigate but was handy to have for that midnight trip to the beach.

Weekend getaway

The property was as it was advertised. The two bedrooms downstairs had no bathrooms and had to come to the second (main) floor for bathroom access but overall it was a nice home and would definitely consider staying there again.

Perfect for our group

We had 4 generations staying there. There was plenty of space and parking for everyone. It was clean, cool and close to the beach. We had a fabulous time.
