Thank you for the fantastic review! We're so glad to hear that the home was comfortable, well stocked, and a great fit for your family of five. We love hearing that you enjoyed the quality bedding, easy walk to the beach, and all the little details that helped make your stay feel like home. We especially appreciate the "can I live here?" comment — that’s the ultimate compliment! We’d love to welcome you back anytime for another relaxing beach getaway (even if we can’t offer permanent residency 😉).

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here to be close to the kids for the holidays and wanted enough space to host a dinner. The pool table was a huge bonus and we all enjoyed having that ! Our older mom stayed with us so the downstairs tub was not ideal for her but otherwise we enjoyed the house and all the amenities. Spacious, comfortable beds, lots of seating and beautiful back yard.

Family vacation

This is a wonderful house! We had a great stay with everything we needed. The house is well stocked. The garage has everything you need for the beach, wagons, chairs, umbrellas, and beach toys for the kids. Along with the pool table and a corn hole game for the backyard. Just a short walk to beach. The crows nest on the roof was icing on the cake. The upstairs got a little warm in the afternoon on our 85degree day, but there was plenty of fans to cool down. The downstairs bedrooms do hear noise from people walking upstairs. But the tri levels allow alot of privacy. I still give this house 5 stars and highly recommend it!
