Great home to host a large group in for the weekend! Quiet neighborhood with a short walk to the beach. Only about a ~15-20 walk to downtown bars and restaurants.
Excellent property!
Super clean, great layout with tons of room and all well appointed. The kitchen was the best stocked VRBO I’ve ever been to!
Only one small suggestion, a few large coffee mugs would be nice.
This house was absolutely amazing. You wouldn’t even know that 7 adults were in the home since we had so much room! The place was perfect! So close to the beach and very clean! I would recommend this house over and over again. We are still talking about the great time we had in such an amazing home!! We would love to come back again!
Great user friendly house. Description was spot on. We would rent it again without hesitation. Owner was easy to get along with. No issues to speak of.
This home was perfect for our family of 14! The home offered plenty of space for everything. The layout, condition and location can’t be beat. The host, Doug, was approachable and great to deal with. This was our first time renting a home like this. It will not be our last. We will be back next year!
Excellent property. Great proximity to the beach. Easy walk, even if with a bunch of fishing gear. The weather was miserable, but the house had plenty of entertainment options to keep everyone happy.
Our stay was great! The house was absolutely beautiful! Everything was so clean and felt like home. The house had so much to offer and was close to town.
We enjoyed our reunion week with friends— with this house, even the bad weather wasn’t an issue. This is an excellent home for a group of four couples. Highly recommend.
This house has updated amenities and high-end finishes, a gourmet kitchen, pool table and great spaces for entertaining or family time. The property manager, Doug, is very helpful and we had a wonderful time.
The location of the house could not be better. We had 7 girls staying here and never felt like we were on top of one another, but still had enough communal spaces to all hang out together. Beautiful home. Would definitely stay here again!
