This is the place to get away for peace, with an amazing view of the ocean. Couldn't have asked for a better place to stay for the weekend and wish we could have stayed longer
We truly enjoyed this beautiful beach house! The house was every bit as lovely as the pictures. The porch overlooking the ocean was magnificent. A beautiful place to unwind and relax.
The house was perfect for us. The view was spectacular. The beach access was on point. The deck has plenty of seating.....the swings were my fave. The beds are beyond comfy. Slept better than I have in a while. The entire house is set up for relaxation. Great location. Pictures don't do it justice. Thanks for sharing your home with us!
I can’t say enough about this property! It looked exactly like the online pictures. This house was beautiful I celebrated my 44th birthday here and my entire family loved it! Lindsey is amazing and so nice! My birthday celebration was more than I could ask for we had a blast. My family and I will be booking again for our annual family new years celebration.
Took the family for spring break vacation and we had a blast. The host was very accommodating and we have no complaints. Looking forward to our next visit in the summer when the water temp rises. The house was clean and new. We ran out of trash bags and the host responded quickly sending us additional bags. Stunning view and nice R&R.
Beautiful, clean, spacious beachfront cabin
in perfect location. The large covered deck was well furnished with high-quality seating, and the most fun swinging chairs. The kitchen was spotless and the large island with seating all around was the perfect spot to entertain our friends. The living room had large oversized, comfortable furniture, and giant TV. Each bedroom was spacious and all the bathrooms were great, but the master bathroom was spectacular. Everything worked perfectly and the host was very helpful and responsive. We will definitely be renting this house again. Highly recommend!!!
Very clean, roomy, comfortable beds and bedding. Nicely decorated with plenty of storage space. Wonderful view of the ocean and easy access to beach. Basic kitchen utensils and cleaners supplied. Beautiful porch with plenty of seating. Quiet beautiful neighborhood, no problems.
