Had an excellent time!

We had an excellent time at this beautiful house on the beach. I love that it wasn’t crowded at alland that it’s just steps away from the beach where we could watch the kids play from the balcony.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! We had everything we needed and it was an easy check in and check out process. The views from the house as well as the deck were amazing! We hope to stay here in the future and highly recommend it.

We’ve stayed here a dozen times and it always delivers. So relaxing and equipped with everything you need making for a stress free trip! All of the rooms are perfect and the layout is wonderful! Immaculately clean and the location couldn’t be better. The host is so accommodating and fast to respond! We will be back again and again!

Great stay once again!!

This was our fourth time staying at EZ Street beach house and each time has been amazing! We were celebrating my husband’s 55th birthday with two other couples. The house has everything you need and the kitchen is stocked with any cooking item needed. The beds are super comfortable with very soft sheets and fluffy pillows. The outside area is great as well! We will definitely be booking again!

Great as always

This was our 4th annual crew fishing trip at this house. It’s been great every year. The house has a very well stocked kitchen, so we always have everything we need. It is always very clean when we arrive. I definitely recommend staying here, can’t wait till next year.

Great stay!

This was our 4th time to stay here and it was just as perfect as the other times. I love that the kitchen is so organized and has great utensils and pots and pans. The bedrooms have ceiling fans and extra fans if you need them. There are plenty of extra pillows and blankets. You can walk directly out to the beach from the house. This is our favorite house at Bolivar!

Great place!

This was our 2nd time at EZ Street and it was just as fabulous as the first time. We go to Bolivar 3-4 times a year and have stayed in many houses there. This one is the cleanest and most organized house there. Extra fans are provided as well as a hair dryer. Utensils, dishes and pots and pans are nice. We love having 3 bathrooms too! This house is right by the beach and we love the quieter location.

Much needed get Away

This is the second time we have stayed here. Once again it was above expectation. The house is cozy has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay, very roomy. I love the big island in the kitchen for gathering to eat and game night. The beds are very comfortable , the third bathroom is a bonus for me. All updated appliances Tv's in every room although i don't know why you need them with the view, sunsets and rises here are awesome , steps to the beach which feels like your private area no one has ever camped in front of the house. Communication with the host was never an issue very quick response. The wrap around porch feels like a bonus room as well. Outdoor shower to wash the day and sand off, grill, picnic table beach chairs and fire pit as well VERY highly recommend.
