Great family house, excellent separation between rooms

This overall is an excellent property for a large family to stay at. There are 5 bedrooms and you can even do 6 or 7 in a pinch with the study and game room. The bedrooms are well separated among the 3 floors with the bottom one having a private entrance into a fenced yard, perfect for someone with a dog. You are just a few houses (1 minute walk) from the boardwalk to the beach and on the dunes with an ocean view - hard to top the location. The house has some nice features like a foosball table, games, a hi chair for a little kid, etc. There are 3 large dining tables. We'd definitely stay here again, it served our purposes very well. That said, the house could use a little TLC in terms of maintenance, e.g. the grill is rusted over and not really usable. But it's a daunting task to keep a house this large close to the salty ocean breeze in pristine shape.

Thanksgiving Weekend

Love the spaciousness of the house and proximity to the beach! A big plus is the fully loaded kitchen filled with anything anyone would need. Only complaint is condition of living room furniture - old and uncomfortable…not what one would expect in this home (and the cost to stay there); hopefully, that will get remedied soon!!!!

Great Summer Vacation Spot

We were able to get our complete family all together for the 1st time ever and everyone had a wonderful time. The house was large enough for all of us (14) with enough room to spread out.

Amazing

Great Location. The house was fully stocked all we really needed with the exception of cleaning supplies and trash bags but nothing a quick drive to the gas station 2 minutes away couldn't fix. We had a large group of 11 and it has more than enough space for everyone to lounge around and relax after the beach. Great overall experience and will definitely be renting again if available.
