We were traveling for a much needed girls' trip. The house was very nicely decorated and cozy. The air condition din't help too much with the upstairs bedrooms - our only complaint. The house is located right on the bay, and walking distance to a pier with a fun restaurant/bar and live music. We had a great stay. We woke up every morning to watch the sunset.

Great location right on the beach - private path to the beach. The outdoor space is amazing - there is a table with a grill right outside the kitchen, a deck with a table, hammock, and seats in the back of the house, and an upstairs deck with a beautiful view of the bay and beach. Very quiet area overlooking a fishing pier with a restaurant. The house is very spacious, with great bedrooms, well stocked kitchen, and a huge dining room, and living room. The hosts were very responsive, helpful, and accommodating.

Perfect Ocean View Waterfront Home

My family had a wonderful stay at Jeanie's waterfront home. The house was really lovely, very comfortable and spacious, and was well stocked for all of our needs. The beach was perfect and we loved how close it was to the fishing pier which we ended up walking to along the beach daily! I would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable, accessible, & accommodating!

My family and I rented the house and cottage and both were lovely, cozy, and had everything we needed and more! This is also one of the only vacation rentals we’ve stayed in that had great working AC & wifi. The property was perfect and we appreciated the accessibility for the in-laws. We will 100% be booking again for next year!

Jeanie and Kim's house was wonderful. All we needed to do was get groceries from the store and we were set for our short spring break trip - everything else was provided! Direct access to the beach, plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the view, ample area in the house to be together or for alone time.

Great mother & daughter trip

My mom and I decided to book a spur of the moment beach trip. We kept coming back to this house. It was a great stay, close to the beach, and the house was so clean. Highly suggest eating at Swell Bar and Grill while there which is only 3 minute drive - fresh seafood and friendly service. Kim and Jeanie, the hosts, were super communicative. Check in and check out was a breeze. Thank you for opening up your home! Truly a gem of a stay.

Pictures don’t do this home justice! Hidden away from the road, almost like a secret in the trees. The modern wraparound decks provide several places to enjoy the view, have a family meal, or a game night. The proximity to the beach was amazing and made it easy to go back and forth. Plenty of beach chairs and toys were found and enjoyed by all. The inside gives mid-restoration cottage vibes, with modern and classic elements. The living room is huge with 3 comfy couches. Downstairs bathroom is also huge with a jetted tub and large shower, with an entry to the side of the house, easy access to get cleaned up from the beach. The bedrooms upstairs are super comfy, with blinds on all the windows if you need to shield the sun. The upstairs full bath is a bit cramped for larger people, as I am, but still functional (at 6’4” I chose to shower downstairs). There is definitely some work to be done, like loose doorknobs, but nothing that derailed us from enjoying our long weekend. The kids had fun on the paddle boards and the pier just a short walk away provided additional entertainment, with live bands in earshot. Would definitely visit again! Thank you!
