Sweet house with perfect sunset views
My husband and I adore this sweet house. We have stayed here multiple times since 2008. It is a perfect location with the best sunset views. Always easy to communicate and always clean! We will continue to be return guests.

A Treasure on the Dunes
We had an absolutely wonderful vacation here, made all the more magnificent by this delightful “home base.” The house—while exceptionally well appointed with new appliances, a large washer and dryer, and everything one would need for cooking and serving—effortlessly manages to be both functional and cozy. The seating is ample, the beds are comfortable and supportive, and the layout is practical, with bedrooms and restrooms to the roadside while the open design of the living/dining areas allows a comfortable flow through the house and an unobstructed view of the ocean. Outside, having the covered swing is marvelous, giving a beautiful view of the ocean and a cathartic breath of sea air. It rained all day for 2 days of our trip, but the covered swing remained gloriously restful.
The only item that could use some improvement is the deck, as there are a few nail heads rising from the older wood; however, repairs have already begun with deck screws and new treated lumber.
Lastly, the homeowner goes out of their way to assure a pleasant stay. The homeowner was immediately responsive to any questions we had, and worked closely with us so that our stay was memorable. We always felt that if we had any questions or concerns, that an answer would be arriving momentarily.
I cannot say enough about the wonderful time we had in this house and how attentive the homeowner was, and I would unreservedly recommend this beach rental to anyone.

Disappointment
Property location is awesome, property and facilities however were disappointing. I texted contact person with why along with photos and no response to date from back on Tuesday, 3 days ago. When booked, I went off the 4.8 star rating I saw but did not read actual prior reviews, if I had the one from 2021 still holds for today. My guess, based on my experience is that property owners don't take reviews seriously as I found the state of this property as she described, but with 2 years more of physical deterioration. Luckily we were not planning a lot of time indoors and the weather helped make that a reality, otherwise what turned out to be an ok trip would have been rather unenjoyable. My advice, renter beware.

Great beach getaway
The house was perfect for what we were looking for. Oceanfront, very clean and a t.v. in every bedroom. It is also steps away from a grill which made grabbing food easy. We really enjoyed our stay!
