Sep 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Beautiful house, extremely well stocked kitchen and spice cabinet, and great location! Lots of little touches made it feel like home: q-tips and cotton rounds in the bathroom, lots of coasters and table decor, plenty of board game options. Our little ones enjoyed the upstairs. Biggest bonus is the giant collection of beach supplies downstairs: chairs, a beach cart, boogie boards, umbrellas, sand toys, and a couple of kites! Made our Labor Day weekend very enjoyable. The lockbox was a bit difficult, but given the salty air that is to be expected. ##### Holly H. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert O.
