The house is super clean, spacious, and conveniently located close to the beach. Check in and check out were a breeze. The primary bedroom and bathroom are huge! The kitchen layout was convenient and we really liked having a washer/dryer to keep clothes and towels clean. Great dog-friendly and kid-friendly space!

Nice stay

We enjoyed our stay at The Anchor Holds. It was spacious and convenient to everything we wanted to do. There were only 2 wash clothes in the entire house and the kitchen didn’t have oils, salt/pepper or condiments so bring that with you. The master bathroom was amazing and the fenced in dog area was helpful. We would stay here again.

We loved the place and location. We lucked out with amazing weather - I’d rent again here. Our only suggestions are a coffee table and maybe little better layout with the tv room furniture.

Perfect getaway for our doggy beach trip!

House was perfect for our doggy beach trip! Grateful to find a location that was accomodating with our fur babies. Reps answered all of our questions in a timely manner and check-in/out was very easy. Location is perfect, quick 5 min walk across the street to the beach and a quick drive to the local restaurants. Inside the house, we had everything we needed from kitchen appliances, washer/dryer, and an outdoor shower. I would definitely recommend to any group!!

A solid choice

This is a well appointed, spacious house that delivered on many levels. Plenty of room, very clean, and the beds were quite comfortable - they didn't skimp on the mattresses. Kudos for the outdoor shower and foot wash, as well as the Adirondack chairs on the deck. Another big plus were the parking passes for the four beach lots west of the place, allowing us easy access to beautiful sand beaches without many people. Only reason it is not a 5 is because, first, there weren't any kitchen expected, like salt and pepper, Ziploc bags, foil, or even a broom, and second, as a house on an island, the lack of beach accessories, like chairs, towels, umbrella, and the like. Those little touches are what makes a location a 5 in my book.You will not regret booking here.

Grandson’s Spring Break

The property was ah-mazing‼ Just as listed. Only issue was that we needed attention to two matters in the house. Loose bunkbeds and TV unable to be plugged in. After several attempts and promises to have someone come and fix these matters, no one ever showed up as promised. That in itself was a major “no no” for me.
