Amazing trip, great location!

Beautiful beach house! Beach access over the dune is super close. Host was very responsive and made sure we loved our vacation. The pool and hot tub were perfect to still enjoy the weather, especially for the windy days. The decks were perfect for sunrise coffee and relaxing. You can tell the owners really care and want you to enjoy your stay.

Perfect house for what we needed

We chose this house because we weren't sure of the weather in October. The movie theater room was a big hit with all the kids, and the pool table was a hit for the adults. We loved having bedrooms and bathrooms on all the floors, and the kids loved staying together in the bunk bedroom. The walk to the beach was a breeze, and it was nice to be able to have our own pool since the waves were pretty wild while we were there. Communication and check-in/out were a breeze. Dollar General and Waves Market and Deli are right up the road, which came in handy. It was a great experience.

Family Vacation

Really nice overall, but some of the pics are a little misleading. Furniture is a bit worn. Owner was always available when I messaged him and got back to me in a timely manner.
