This is our second time staying here, overall the house is very nice and in decent condition. However, we did notice some unclean dishes and some animal spots on the rugs and floor mats. We will definitely stay here again for the easy beach access and pet friendliness.

Great location right on the beach. Literally steps away. Plenty of room and a great open layout. Very clean and up to date on appliances, cookware and rooms. Will definitely come back to stay again.

This house is exactly as pictured. Absolutely gorgeous and comfortable to stay in for our family of 7. The location was great and low key. We enjoyed being right on the beach. Communication with the property owner was excellent. I would highly recommend staying here and look forward to booking another trip soon!

This house checked all our boxes and more. Wonderful house to stay in. We have stayed in many different houses and this was by far the cleanest one. The view and beach was wonderful. We will be back next year.

It was perfect for us. We did a lot of birding. We enjoyed cooking dinner each night. Excellent kitchen. The view from the living room is the big selling point. Access to the beach is so easy.

Wonderful, clean relaxing house on beach front. Everything was enjoyable except the 2 king size beds. Mattresses felt broke down and need to be replaced.

I hesitate to even talk about this great house as I don’t want it to become too popular that we can’t book another stay!! I didn’t want to come home! The proximity & cleanliness were fantastic!! Spacious family room, huge beds & kitchen with all of the must-haves all made for the perfect week!! We made so many great memories with our family… already looking forward to booking again for next July!!

Bright, new, clean and right on the beach. This is a wonderful beachhouse with a lovely short path through the dunes and in a quiet part away from traffic. The deck is large with solid chairs to sit and watch the moon rise. (We did wish for a table for morning coffee and meals.) The kitchen is well equipped and bedroom linens are lovely. We set up a pop up on the beach and appreciated the very short walk back for refills. Our puppies loved it too. We will be back.
