  Amazing location, great accommodations and atmosphere. The beach was great for fishing straight out, and for swimming. Just a short walk up the beach gets better for playing.

• Great location well kept house

  5/5

  House was in great condition. Clean, smelled good and no musty smell (not always the case in beach rental). Owner John was easy to reach and took care of things well. House is in great location 2nd row from beach. Lots of games and things for kids to play with/watch when not at beach.

  Quite weathered. Ac units not very good and in much need of a cleaning. Grill falling apart if you care to use it as we did.

• Great Access with Ramp!

  3/5

  We had a great stay. Two Grandmothers with grandchildren 8-9 years old and a small pup. A few friends and family came out for the day.

  -The house was charming and very clean with three (2nd row) views of the ocean waves! ❤️

  - The new ACUnits were great! ❤️

  -Very close to beach in backyard, however, rocks are along Beach Drive in back and it was High Tide. We entered onto beach by driving to the end of Beach Drive and Texas. It was safe and had a big beach for kids swimming and playing, and crab catching as sun went down. Lots of fun! ❤️

  -The kitchen is beautiful and new! A few more bowls would be nice. Only one.❤️

  -The rooms were nice with great tvs. ❤️

  -Baths big and accommodating but a little remodeling still needed.

  -It rained hard with lighting one evening. There is no awning over door with code box which was very hard to enter code on a wet entry box with lighting and getting soaking wet. That should be remedy for safety reasons. 😔

  -The dinning room window would not shut completely on one corner with a hole and rattled loud in strong winds. 😞

  -The house has only a very limited amount of bedding, pillows very very thin, no extra linens, one blanket and no pillows for pull out sofa bed. That was not accommodating!😞

  We would rent again if the few things were fixed! Again the ramp was awesome for carrying items in and out especially with a wagon! A few friends had walking issues and it was wonderful for them! ❤️

  Hi Lisa, we want our guests to arrive at a vacation home that is 100% ready for their stay, so we take feedback like yours seriously! We followed up with the homeowner after reading your review, and they wanted to share the following:
  
  - The kitchen was recently updated and includes a full dishware set, including several bowls—but we’ll double-check with our cleaner to make sure they’re all accounted for.
  - The home is fully stocked with linens, pillows, and blankets. The cleaner will confirm that these are clearly placed and that extras are accessible in the closet for future guests.
  - We're looking into weatherproofing options around the entry to help improve usability and comfort during rainy conditions.
  - We're also aware of the window concern and will be repairing the faulty latch so it can close properly and quietly during storms.
  
  Thanks again, and we hope that you keep us in mind for your future travels!
