Perfect property for a week or season (just don’t think about taking my week or two) owner super responsive and sweet even personally showed up for super minor issue which basically involved plugging something in!! Can walk for coffee/ breakfast; ice cream and short bike ride to boardwalk or adult beverages over bridge.
Can’t beat the location! Short walk to the beach and a quiet location. The Crawfords were so nice and really showed that they wanted us to enjoy our stay. They were very easy to communicate with. The beds were all very comfortable, but place would benefit with a little updating to brighten it up. We had a great time at this property and would consider staying again.
Nice small cottage close to the beach and good for two to four people. the porch was great with nice ocean and bay breezes

Comfortable, but ants and no internet
Property was generally as advertised and comfortable for our family of 5. Showers were hot and AC was cold...both good things. The owner was friendly and it was nice of her to check in with us on our first day. Also kind of her to leave a paddle ball gift for our kids. On the cons side: the property had a very large number of ants, there was no lock on the screened in porch, and we were unable to get the internet to work. Devices connected to the property wifi ok, but no external internet connection. We ended up using my phone's hot spot...not ideal but worked okay.
We enjoyed spending time as a family in this comfortable home (well stocked kitchen, washer dryer). After spending time at the beach, which was a quick walk from the house, we all hung out on the large screened in porch. It was fantastic to catch the breeze and see the sun set over the bay. The location is in a quiet neighborhood which we prefer, though Uncle Bill’s Pancake House and an Ice cream parlor is a block from the house. Check in was easy. Frances was very nice and provided suggestions on things we might enjoy doing during our stay. We would love to go back and would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing beach vacation.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Close to the beach and off street parking a definite plus! Beach tags included and check in was a breeze. Very kind and accommodating owners of the property. The house could have been a little cleaner but most summer rentals at the beach are the same. It just took a little time and personal effort to feel at home and all supplies were available for use. The house is full of character and the screened in front porch was a warm welcome after a day at the beach. Enjoyed meals and hanging out there too. The weather was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for more! Only suggestion would be an update to the kitchen dishes and cookware and a bit of organization to the closets. Overall a great place to stay, quiet and peaceful.
We enjoyed the porch very much! The access to the beach was super easy too. I think the place could be kept cleaner, mostly the floor, storage space under the sink, and the pull-out couch. The coffee machine was tiny but it did the job, we got used to it. Also, the ACs were a bit noisy but it cooled space very nicely and having them was great too. The neighborhood was super quiet!
Overall, we were satisfied with our stay and I would stay here again.
We had a great week at this property. The owners were so nice and helpful. I had Acme deliver groceries and Frances put all of the cold stuff away for me! Super nice and didn’t have to do that. The front porch was awesome to have my toddlers had so much fun playing there and we ate all of our meals there. The location was excellent. The place is small but it was enough for the 4 of us. The only downside was when we got there we tried to vacuum something my son spilled and the vacuum didn’t work. Also the couch was not comfy at all. But other than that it was a great stay. The owners are really nice and it’s a great location. We had an awesome family vacation!
The property was great. We enjoyed our stay very much. The screened in porch was fantastic at night to sit outside and eat and enjoy the weather without the bugs all over us. Thank you so much Mrs. Crawford for the stay and the delicious tomatoes. We greatly appreciate your home.

8. plenty of wi-fi and parking
9. the Porch was so nice, great to have meals and hangout
10. Already planning our return in 2021.
Thank Frances and Jim for your gracious hospitality.
We had a great experience at this property. The owner was super helpful and even saved us an extra parking spot. The property was great although I would say the kitchen was difficult to work in and the house needs some updating. Better to eat out if staying here. All in all it was a positive experience and would consider staying again. Thank you Francis.
