Dog friendly

We picked this place for our dog. Good fenced in back yard. Place smelled old, but a lot of space in house and close to everything including boardwalk. Rental team was nice and responsive.

Great location close to boardwalk and beach. The property was old but everything was clean and in working condition. I would have given 5 stars but some beds were uncomfortable.

Great OC stay

House had everything we needed. Host was quick to respond to questions. Great to have free parking and a porch and yard walking distance to everything. Love the pet friendly option, even though our dog passed away and was not able to join us. House had plenty of room for everyone to hang out.

Overall great stay

Overall the place was great some minor things. The master bedroom bed was a little smaller than expected. And the bed location made it difficult for one of us to get into bed. The other bedroom would really benefit from darkening curtains. The street lights got a little annoying but nothing really major Overall we had a great experince and the place was very pleasant. We enjoyed game night with the provided board games

Nice property, but a few minor issues

Overall, we were somewhat satisfied with our stay: the property was clean, mostly everything worked (more below), and the location was exactly as advertised. The layout was very spacious, and had lots of great amenities: TVs, board games, full kitchen, etc. It was also very accommodating to our dog, who loved the fenced-in backyard.We ran into two hiccups, however: firstly, our door code did not work. The owners responded fairly quickly (roughly 20 mins), but it was a very stressful 20 mins (late at night, crying baby, etc). In their defense, it WAS late (11:00pm), but I DID email the owners around 8:00pm to let them know that we’d be arriving late. The second was that the property was VERY cold. The thermostat was unable to make it past “65” regardless of what we set it at. One could make an argument that expecting great heating at a beach house is a little silly, but had we known ahead of time that the house was going to be THIS cold, we would have packed a little differently.Overall, my husband and I both agree that this would be a great place to stay in the summer, but for the winter, we’d probably opt for a hotel. I’d rate our stay a 3.5/5 if I could, but given that the majority of people will use this house for the summer, I’ll round up to 4.

Perfect size and location!

The location and size of this place could not be better!!! The house is slightly out dated but it adds to the charm and it’s very clean. There were just a few minor issues but management was easy to get ahold of and extremely fast to resolve the problem. Highly recommend! We’ll be staying here again.

Great Place to Stay

Very nice place. Great location (located near the rides on the boardwalk) Free parking. You are able to walk to most things. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend. Note: the house does not provide beach towels, hairdryer and the backyard is fenced but will not contain very small dogs because the fence has gaps.

Small beds were like rock

The small beds were hard we weren’t even told about the orange spots out in front that those are free parking spots till we were there five days and we’re told by a neighbor about them. Found empty water bottles under a bed. Great location but driveway a little dangerous backing out.

Fantastic cottage in a great location!

House is ideally situated for easy access to the boardwalk and inlet. Good for families and great fenced in yard for our pup (very rare find). Very clean and well kept home. Main bedroom is a little tight, but workable!

Great location

This is a wonderful location - easy access to the boardwalk and no need to drive! Unfortunately, there was an ant problem in the master bathroom but that was likely due to a major rain storm that came the day before we arrived. The unit did have ant spray available so after 2 days of spraying we were able to get rid of them. When I spoke to the property manager, they offered to have the exterminator come out but I declined citing the spray would likely take care of the problem and it eventually did! The unit is large and has lots of games but the master bedroom didn't have a smart TV so no ability to watch TV in bed - not sure why there is a TV in the master bedroom. Bring your own toilet paper b/c the provided TP is very cheap. Also, bring some paper towels b/c they only provided one roll. Kitchen fully stocked with dishes and cookware but no laundry facilities on site. Overall, a good stay and SUPER location!
