Just as advertised; only issue at check in

Great house and location, just as advertised. Only issue was not getting check in information upon arrival. Arrived at 245 pm for 3 pm check in after traveling two days with family of 5 and owner did not respond until nearly 345 to let us know where to find the keys. In the meantime, VRBO offered us a refund as they could also not get a response from the owner regarding access to the property. Stressful start to our vacation, to say the least. I would highly recommend reaching out to the owner the morning of the arrival day at least to avoid this.

Can’t wait to stay again.

I loved everything about this place. Location was perfect and the front sitting area was superb. House was clean and had all necessities needed. The gate on the front porch was perfect so my dog could sit out in the front without me worrying that he would go down the stairs and cross the road. Did I mention being steps away from the beach? Love!

Fantastic!

This was a last minute beach trip for me, my wife, and our adult daughter. The home was perfect: clean, nicely decorated, near the ocean, and near (but not too close to) town. Much needed R&R. Our daughter requires a wheelchair for all mobility, so we especially appreciated the elevator and wide hallways. Would absolutely recommend!

Great Getaway

Great location and house for 6. Thrilled with the elevator and ability to bring our pup. Beach is short walk and close enough to shopping and restaurants without being in the crowds. The porches are the star of the house with gated deck and fenced in yard. Definitely planning to return. Thanks Holly :)

Loved the stay! Location was awesome. Enough room for 8 adults. Had issue with ac and contacted owners they responded right away! It was fixed in a few hours. Great place and glad we got to bring the dogs. Easy instructions to leave. Would suggest basic condiments. We loved It!!

Nice but..

I really like this home! The location, layout of home, and fact that It allows dogs had us come back for a second year! This year though barely any condiments to use in the home, limited household items like hand soap and dish soap. I don’t think everything needs to be totally supplied but the basics would be helpful. (Like salt and pepper)! Could have some extra blankets also. This would not prevent me from renting again. Overall the location for us and layout is great.

One Of My Best Vacations

I absolutely loved the house and the location. We had the best time with a minute walk to the beach. Everything in the neighborhood was great with not a lot of commotion that you see at the beaches today. Easy driving and access. Felt safe walking. Nice and polite neighborhood. Even the construction crew building nearby were always polite. My daughter and I have already discussed coming back next year. My son and daughter loved the house setup. I would definitely recommend.

Needs updates in living room!

Had a wonderful short trip. Everything you need. Not to fancy or new but great! Wonderful VIEW! Outstanding location. Very short walk to the beach. We all slept like babies/beds are good. Outstanding shower in master bed room. Great outside living. Full size washer and dryer. Has a nice elevator!! The BIGGEST problem is the sofa and chair are worn 1000% out. Not just old but needs to be replaced!

Nice Property.

We stayed at this property July-16-23rd. Excellent beach access for a 2nd row home, literally cross the street and walk down three houses, 2 minutes max. Great fenced in back yard for our two senior dogs. Mix of sun and shade, which they loved. A/C and fans were great. Temps were in the mid 90's every day of our visit, but we never had to touch the thermostat. Very comfortable. Our only observation, not a criticism, is that the floor plan is very unique. Tons of storage space, way too much for a beach house. It seems that there's enough space for a 4th bedroom. I would think that adding a 4th bedroom would help with cash flow. But, just saying....It's not my property.

Do No Rent This House

Check in was 3 pm. The house was dirty, beds unmade, food crumbs on floors, hair in bath sinks. Sheets and towels in washer wet. Assume put there by previous quests. I called vrbo. They couldn't contact owner. They gave me alternate number. It was owner's husband. He said that he was in different town. He tried calling but couldn't reach her. He said they live in Ohio! Holly finally called and said cleaners were on the way. They arrived around 6 pm. We went to dinner. When we got back to house, they were gone. My son went to bed around 9pm, and his sheets were wet!
