Beautiful home! So clean and cozy. Short walk to the beach! We come many times a year and it was our first time at forest ridge. We loved it! Great spot for spring break! We loved playing pickleball, grilling, playing cards at night and watching March madness. We will be back!

Great location to beach and downtown

House was wonderfully clean and very well stocked. Easy parking in front of condo. Loved the short walk to beachfront for sunrise walks. Enjoyed getting some sun by the pool facilities.Downtown is a quick drive away for nice visit to shops and great restaurant choices. Recommend this condo and the area, overall!

Normally, we visit in the summer and stay on the beach but since it was October staying at Forest Ridge worked just fine. The condo had a fully stocked kitchen which is rare. They had everything you would need to bake a cake or cook a meal. They even had a “junk” drawer in the kitchen with things like tape, pens and a lighter. They thought of everything. My only suggestions are fluffier pillows and instructions for the TV.

Top Notch Vacay!!

We truly loved staying at this great condo. Not only did the pix online look just like the condo when we got there, but it was even better in person. The condo was super spacious and quiet and literally a short walk to the beach (take the short cut, you'll thank me later). Not only was the condo also well prepared for your stay, but the kitchen had everything you would need if you decide to cook. Tony and his wife Peg are wonderful communicators and even reached out to us during the storm to make sure we were okay, how thoughtful. We will definitely stay here again.

Lovely! Perfect!

This is the cleanest vacation rental that we've ever stayed in! The owners really take excellent care of this property!! The condo is lovely and very comfortable. The kitchen is well-equipped. The beds are super comfy. We loved that it is a very short walk to the beach. We love to surf and easily walked our boards to the beach every day. There is a nice wooden raised walkway path with a shower on the way to the beach to rinse off (and rinse boards off). The on-site pool is very nice, too. Hope to visit here again!! The owners are kind, helpful, and very responsive. I also had to work remote and the wifi is fast and reliable.

Nothing short of amazing..

We loved our stay!! The condo is even better than described.. Host was very polite and responsive, we had ZERO issues, but just some basic local knowledge questions and he responded very quick. Amenities were top notch, condo very well kept up, all appliances, etc worked great.. Honestly there was absolutely nothing about this property that wasn't top notch 5 stars.. Just a side note if you like pizza we suggest Townies Pizza 5 mins from condo. Also Cedar River seafood 3 mins away was great very downhome feel.. If you are looking... STOP and reserve this one.. Thanks you for the amazing place!

We had such a wonderful stay! Our host was incredibly kind, responsive, and accommodating, which made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The condo was spotless, beautifully maintained, and had all the things needed to be comfortable. The pool was the perfect place to relax and cool off on a day when we wanted a break from packing up for the beach. The girls had fun splashing around and racing! Thank you for sharing your beautiful space with us. We truly enjoyed every part of our stay and can’t wait to come back!

Very spacious, clean, and updated. Lots of kitchen and bathroom essentials are there, even beach chairs, umbrella, and boogie board/toys. Only slight downside is the walk to the beach is a little further than what I was anticipating because this condo is in the back of complex, so I recommend a beach cart to make it easier. This beach area was low crowd during our stay.
