Great dog friendly, family hideout!

Clean and charming remodeled home from the 1950s. One block from the beach and easy to walk to the beach. Very dog friendly house and yard. Parking for up to 4 vehicles. Easy access to all local restaurants and island entertainment. Great for a family with kids!

Weekend at the Beach with Family

The location to the beach, grocery store, and local restaurants was perfect. Communication through the Vacasa app was prompt and efficient. Would definitely recommend this location, but would strongly suggest replacing the mattresses. We thorough enjoyed HHI.

3 Moonshell Road

Loved the neighborhood and proximity to the beach! We enjoyed our weekend here, but I noticed a few things that would prohibit me from booking a longer vacation. The main floor is upstairs which would have been cumbersome if we had brought a lot of luggage. The separate dining room was nice; however, the kitchen was small and I think it would have been difficult to prepare a full meal given the lack of counter space. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms gave us plenty of room to spread out, but unfortunately, the beds were extremely uncomfortable. Overall, the home was lovely and mostly clean.

It was really close to the beach and was very clean and comfortable. However, there was NOT a fenced in yard as described and no washer and dryer. The stairs was a lot to go up and down several times a day with my old dog.

Cute little house with everything you'd need to get away for a few days. The view is beautiful, not far from Cherokee and Sylva. Just the right size for our 2 dogs and our son. No complaints would recommend for sure.

This was the perfect place for our family and we hope to be repeat visitors! The layout of the house worked great with our teenager, younger child, and dog; everyone could have their own space and we could close off areas to make sure our dog stayed in the common spaces. The location was perfect - in a quiet neighborhood, only a 5 minute to the public beach access, and a stone’s throw to the multi-use path which we took several bike rides on. We’ve stayed in this neighborhood before and love the easy access it offers to everything away from the more crowded areas of the island.
