Avalon Gem
Our family of 6 adults and 4 children truly enjoyed our stay! The house was perfectly located between the beach and town. It was an easy 2 block walk to the beach which brought us to the beginning of the boardwalk. Great for morning walks and fun at the playground for the kids. The 1 block walk to town brought us close to restaurants, the market and mini golf. We never used our car. The house is spacious, especially the main floor with an enormous kitchen fully stocked with everything you need. The pool, although modest in size, was perfect for our 4 grandchildren under the age of 5. The adults enjoyed lounging around the pool in the outdoor cabana. Sheila was easy to work with and we look forward to returning.

Beach Week
The house is very well equipped. Our only problem was with the outdoor grill which almost caught fire when it was first lit. It was covered in grease. We had to basically take it apart and clean it. Also, as you noted, the shower in the first floor back bedroom drains very slowly. But basically the house is great . We had a wonderful week and hope to return next year.

This is our second time staying at Sheilas property. She is an absolute gem to work with, very responsive and helpful. This house is perfect for our family of 16. Bedrooms are spacious, kitchen is awesome, and the added lounge pool was perfect to relax in after a long day at the beach. Location... you cant get better! One block back from the start of Avalon main shopping area. 2 easy short blocks away from beach access. Nice clean area and house! We look forward to coming back in the future!!

Memorial Day Weekend - Quick Getaway
This is a great house, great location. Lots of room for family and friends. The kitchen is gigantic. There is everything you could possibly need to service your kitchen needs. The powder room off the kitchen comes in handy. The deck off the kitchen is a great place to sit and hang out. The 2nd floor off the kitchen has a cozy sitting area that gets great light all day long. The master bedroom on the 3rd floor is spacious, plenty of room for your clothes in the walk- in closet. The master bath shower is very relaxing. The 3rd floor also offers some nice bonus spaces and an additional deck that’s a great place to people watch at night. The 1st floor has 4 of the 6 bedrooms. The TV room on the 1st floor (with mini fridge) is a great additional spot as well. It lets everyone have a space to relax after a long day at the beach. Outside, there is a brand-new heated pool, with jet settings and lights for a night swim. The Pool House is a perfect spot to chill out. There’s a new mini fridge here as well for your cold drinks. The TV and lounge furniture make this an awesome spot to relax. Next to the pool is a kitchenette and dining area. This house really has everything. Pretty short walk to the beach. Its 1 block from possibly the best part of town. Restaurants, shopping, ice cream, mini golf, pizza, bakeries, great bars, the list goes on. I’m not sure there’s a better house in Avalon giving you access to so much!

Stayed with a group/wedding party and absolutely loved the house! Lots of bedrooms, gorgeous kitchen/living room and stunning bathrooms! Only issue was confusion on the twin bunkbed room that said sleeps 3, the "3rd bed" is the air mattress as the trundle does not have a mattress on it. The house comes w 0 linens/pillows/blankets/towels but property manager was great with communication on linen service companies they recommend. Perfect location to bars & restaurants and overall super great house!

A beautiful home but a word of caution
The house was beautiful and spacious. Great for our group. However, be warned that no linens includes pillows and comforters as well. We brought our own sheets and towels but were completely shocked to find zero pillows or comforters on any of the beds throughout the whole house. Cleaning instructions are also very in depth for us to complete. We were sent a very long email with things we had to do upon leaving and when we missed one item we were charged a significant amount. However, when we arrived at the house there were linens from the previous tenants that sat on the porch for most of our stay. There were hoards of flies in the house that we had to kill/chase out. There was also some trash left in one of the bathrooms. Overall we had a great trip and it was a nice house, but I would not deal with the hassle that came with this rental property again.
