The house was clean and comfortable with plenty of room for all of us, and stocked with great games to play. Private and peaceful setting, yet a really easy walk to the beach, even with young kids in tow. We loved relaxing in the screen porch and playing shuffleboard right outside. The house is stocked very thoughtfully for guests. The Owner was responsive and easy to communicate with. It was an amazing vacation and hopefully we’ll be back for longer next time. ##### halee p.

We could go back and forth to the beach since it was so close. There were so many attractions nearby. Our 8 year old granddaughter Lily left you a note that she wrote on a napkin, her aunt transcribed it into the book at your house. We hope to return next year. We all had a great time.

We absolutely adored the home from the pictures alone, but when we arrived, we were even more in love. The master’s suite on the second floor provided an escape for my wife and I when we just needed some us time. The kitchen was excellent to gather in for meals and the living room was very roomy. Our kids loved the bunk room and gave them their own secluded place when they just needed to rest. The home was literally three minutes from the beach (yes, we timed it). Mallory was an excellent communicator and we thank her for her hospitals for our first Vrbo experience. Thank you and we hope to visit again in the future! ##### L.A. N.

The house was very clean. The only issue was that there is no a/c even though there is 4 thermostats in the house but there were fans and also a couple of ceiling fans. The windows sometimes are hard to open and close due to the salt air but the host is well aware of the issue. Plenty of room for us 3 adults. The house has a very nice layout with great outdoor space also. We had a great time in this beautiful well kept home, just wish there was a/c! Thank you, it was a great getaway! ##### Patricia Z.
