Fun, quiet stay!

I came with my son for a lacrosse tournament and decided to go this way instead of a hotel. So much better than a hotel! Cute, quiet little beach town. Very friendly! Clean house…well stocked except for towels which I think is silly, but whatever. Will other future tournament, we will use again!

Clean, private, right on the beach!

This house is on a nice, secluded beach with only a few people around. Horseshoe crabs would come up to the beach, which was a real treat. We have rented this home twice now and will definitely come back.

Relaxing Oasis Between Lacrosse Games

We were in the area for lacrosse. We wanted to build-in vacation time while in the area. Pictures and description is accurate. It was clean, quiet & relaxing. Having the washer & dryer in the unit was appreciated. Location is great. Easily accessible to local sports facility, local restaurants, shops/stores and other area activities & beaches. The proximity to the beach, literally a few steps, made this such an amazing spot. If we ever find ourselves back in the area, we hope to stay here again!

Slaughter Beach stay

Accommodations were as advertised, plenty of places to spread out. Loved the view of the bay from the one bedroom, and the deck overlooking the bay was awesome! Being able to walk out on the bed anytime of the day was spectacular. Charlie love chasing the ghost crabs and we saved many a horseshoe crabs.

Location and Hidden Gem

The place was more than we expected. It's right off the bay so it's extremely convenient for us to walk down to the water and carry our SUP boards to the private backyard without having to worry about it every day. The space is quite well organized, a living room with plenty of couches to watch TV/read books/watch sunrise, a nice dining room, kitchen, laundry room, entry foyer, and two bedrooms with their own full bathrooms plus a half bath. Love the private cute sitting area in the main bedroom, you can sit there and watch sunrises through the window, very relaxing. There is an outdoor sitting porch to grill and dining, we didn't use it but others did quite often. The horsefly is kind of annoying but some deet spray kept them away. Overall, loved the place!

Peace with Beach and Nature

Loved the quiet beauty of Slaughter Beach. The home was perfect for us with just steps to the beach and also the National Wildlife Refuge was right across the street. It was nice to be in a pet friendly neighborhood (both the beach and the homes nearby) without the crowds of the nearby high school "Beach Week" towns. The property manager and cleaning staff were extremely responsive to our questions. We especially loved sunrises and sunsets with all the crabs on the beach, and walking to the Marvel Wildlife viewing station to check out the Osprey nests / families. Would definitely stay here again

Slaughter Beach Vacation

When we first got there, there were a lot of biting flies. The kitchen was full of fruit flies, which we never could get rid of. But overall we enjoyed our stay, would probably want to stay somewhere a little closer to the main attractions as nobody delivers to Slaughter Beach.

Bayside Ocean Getaway

Spacious property full of everything you may need to enjoy time near the water. Very accessible for anyone with mobility issues. Multiple spaces to spread out and relax. Amazing sunrises. Lovely sunsets from the desk overlooking the beach. Bay coastline lovely for viewing; possibly for wading. However, didn't see anyone in the water as there is a significant amount of vegetation and sealife. And it is very shallow. We would love to return to this property in the future.

Great place at a great location

We rented the bottom unit of this house. It was very clean and nicely decorated (beach theme). You couldn't ask for a better location. Walk right outside the back door onto the beach. Yes the water was a little murky but at low tide you can walk real far out and see crabs, whelk and other ocean life. Most days when there was a breeze the black flies didn't bother us. I would suggest bringing big spray for the days you do need it. I would definitely recommend this place - very quiet and secluded. And the best part- you can bring your dog. Our dog was extremely happy to play in the ocean and take walks on the beach. All the locals were super nice too.

Great to have a handicapped accessible and pet friendly place!

Ramp and handicapped master bedroom and bathroom were a godsend! Walking right out on to the beach was fabulous for my dog! Comfortable sofas/chairs. Nice to have 2 queen beds and separate bathrooms. Kitchen had almost everything we we needed in the way of utensils, pots, bowls. Unfortunately Hurricane Florence removed the lower part of the steps to the beach so getting up/down was a challenge. However, the contractor arrived while we were there to fix it :-) would definitely come back but will make sure we bring an extra large can of bug spray

Master Bedroom

The master bedroom was set up for handicap people. The bed needs to be replaced. It was a hospital bed with side rails. The toilet had no privacy and was in the room with the bed. There were overhead hanging bars used for handicapped. We kept running into it when trying to use the sink or toilet. I would remove all handicap devices and build a privacy wall for toilet.

Amazing Place, Tough Environment

This is an absolutely gorgeous location. Place was amazing and fully stocked. We were able to cook and there are three TVs, which was nice for our kids. Just want others to be aware that it’s on a marsh so there are tons of nasty biting flies that do stay away with a heavy duty bug spray that you must cover yourself in repeatedly (reapplying hourly). There are lots of mosquitoes too but the flies were worse. Also lots and lots of jellyfish at least when we were there. Our four and six year olds were both stung twice over the span of three days—the six year old had it so bad he vomited twice. It really is gorgeous though and so nice to just look out over the water and totally decompress (as long as you’re covered in bug spray 😅). Again the place was very comfy. Bedroom two has a hospital type bed that goes up and down and has side rails. In this room, the entire bathroom is right in the bedroom also (no privacy for going to the toilet or showering). This didn’t cause any issues but we put the kids in that room cuz it was a little strange. Ha I think for the cost and number of beds and bathrooms, it’s still a good deal. Just want others to know what you’re walking into. Thank you!

Nice enough

The first floor of the house was sufficient for our needs. Kitchen was well stocked with right amount of pots, pans, etc. and the views out the windows toward the beach were wonderful. Our only 2 disappointments: the property around the house was a bit neglectful, with bits of refuse and cigarette butts. Also, it was VERY frustrating trying to use the TV - it should have had a manual or handwritten explanation for it - we wasted a lot of time trying to figure it out, and we still were never able to use the TV 😕.

We look forward to come back to this area and house almost every year. The subtle improvements to the property made it even better this year and the new landing/steps to the beach were great.

Nice Area, Misleading pictures (at time of rental)

First and foremost we had a great time and every time I contacted the property management group they were extremely helpful. But when we rented the property the pictures in the profile had pictures of a fire pit and pictures on the beach. Found out the day before no fires allowed (one of the main reasons we wanted to go there). Also prior to going we received the contract which stated we would have to bring our own supplies (linen foods paper products etc). In the same call about the fire pit found out there were linens so we brought everything else only to find the property fully stock, great! But we brought so much extra supplies that I wish we would have known. Also it stated there was a grill to cook which could not be found. The property is three separate apartments (which i don't remember reading but could have over looked it), so bring only one car as there is only 4 spots available. Most neighbors were super friendly except for one who was mildly annoying but nothing to ruin the weekend. And finally the water when turned hot smelt like sulphur/hard boiled eggs, not sure why. In the end we had a fun time and enjoyed the surrounding area, just finding out the day before the fires on the beach and fire pit was gone ( mind you all other houses had fires on the beach and did not see any public signage saying you cannot). Otherwise everything else was good.

Peaceful Retreat

Our impression of this property was nearly perfect. But, this isn't heaven and nothing here is perfect! We loved the location and appreciated the agent changing our unit from first floor to the second floor. We watched amazing sunrises over the ocean from the back deck and gorgeous sunsets from the front deck! The unit had everything we wanted for our 1 week stay. The location was perfect for a peaceful retreat away from the hussle and bussle of life. We'd definitely return!
