We took a long weekend away to celebrate our 25th anniversary. The house was clean and as described. Nice sized kitchen too which was great because we love to cook. The weather didn't really cooperate with us so we stayed in and enjoyed being in such a cozy place. Would absolutely stay here again.

this was the perfect spot to stay at. We were in town for a basketball tournament and did not want to stay at a hotel in Atlantic City. The house was perfect quiet clean the kitchen made it so much easier so we didn’t have to rush to find a restaurant end The distance from Atlantic City was just right the small little village in the shops made it so cute and enjoyable would definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very comfortable. We had the best of both worlds with my husband being able to fish on the lake in the morning and evening and me being able to sit on the beach in the afternoon..a short drive away. Joy was super responsive and helpful. We also found lots of great GF food in the area, including a dedicated gluten-free bakery just a few minutes away. We plan to go back.
