NY Getaway
This house was perfect for our group to ring in the New Year. Location is great, right on the beach! I only wish it had a fenced-in yard to make it easier with pets, but everything else compensates. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and plenty of room for everyone in the living room and bedrooms. Definitely recommend!

Great little place
This is a great little place to stay. Lots of room. I do think the listing should be updated to let people know that the house moves because of the wind. We had some people that were a little more sensitive to the moving of the house than others.

FANTASTIC FAMILY TIME
Our Family gathers once a year, 18-20 of us , to spend quality time together. This properly was wonderful and was beyond what I expect ed. Plenty of kitchen ware, towels, and washing supplies. It was clean, quiet, and peaceful. The direct beach access was the big bonus. All we needed was for it to be 10 degrees cooler 😁 but otherwise absolutely perfect.

Beautiful view
Home was great, we’ve made it a family tradition to go to the beach when my daughter, son-in-law and grandkids visit from Colorado. We’ve stayed at several VRBO homes over the last 5 years and this was one of our favorites. Kids loved the loft room, it was nice and spacious for all of them. Bedrooms were nice and comfortable too. Kitchen was great, I’m not great with the flat top stoves but that’s just me! We enjoyed the quick beach access and the deck was great for watching the waves having a drink and catching up/visiting and relaxing. We would definitely recommend this home and will probably stay again. We didn’t have any issues so I had no need to contact the owner but I feel that they would have resolved any issues.

Family Weekend
This was our second time at this property. We enjoyed that it was right on the beach and we could bring our pets. It's great for our family because it has 5 bedrooms. Everything was great. The only thing I would change is the addition of an elevator. I wouldn't even have thought about it but the house next door had one. It would save aching old knees like mine and would make easier to unload. Otherwise this was an excellent place.

4th of July Beach Trip
We enjoyed our 4th of July stay with friends and family. There were plenty of rooms for the adults and the upstairs loft was perfect for the kids. The house is located on a quieter end of the beach so it wasn't very crowded but it's still close enough to restaurants and the Big Store. We loved hanging out on the large deck during the day and at night. The kitchen had everything we needed.

Family Vacation
This house is amazaing. The location, the view, the space is everything. It was 18 of us on our annual family trip. The house was very clean and very well maintained. We had to contact the owners for a small issue and they were there within a few minutes. Cathy, thank you for your quick response. Although it could not be resolved because of it being a holiday weekend, it was minor and did not stop us from enjoing our trip to the fullest. The views from the front balcony was great. That is where we spent the majority of our time. We will definitely stay again.
