Perfect beach location

Beautiful spot, well equipped house. The fire pit out front was great for the one windy day bc the house blocked the wind, a great setup.

Best vacation ever

The house was just perfect. My sister and I brought my mom back to see our family before she is not able to travel anymore. We chose this house because my mom always loved to watch the water and walk on the beach and watch the beautiful sunsets. She had the best time and the smile and laughing made it all worth it.

Grief healing

Happy to finally get to the beach!We initially rented this place for my husband's birthday and to recover from a Stem Cell transplant for his Lymphoma. Unfortunately, all did not go as planned and he went home to the Lord much earlier than expected. It was a great place for the family to heal. Beautiful area and wonderful restaurants.Please go. You wont be disappointed.

Family fun!

We loved spending low tide in the tidal pools and afterwards biking and exploring. The accommodation was beach casual and very comfortable. Our twin 15 year old and 12 year old were not bored for a minute. The water called to them every day, kayaking, exploring and even a scavenger hunt. Loved it

Spring break

We had a wonderful time, home had all the needs met. We walked and got coffee, ice cream. Dug clams just out front the home. So beautiful!!! Our puppy loved running on the beach and the kids searching for sea glass was so fun to watch.

Bungalow on the Beach Birch Bay

Nice property, comfy rooms and beds, exquisite sunsets. Everything we needed to cook meals and enjoy the stay. One small problem with doorlock was quickly resolved. The deck is as wide as the house and sitting on the deck at high tide feels like youre on a boat with the waves lapping literally at and below your feet. Very satisfied overall.
