Perfect Spring break getaway

Great place for a big group! Wonderful location (near beach but not on busy main road) with every amenity you could want. Pool and hot tub were perfect for our group. Great kitchen for eating in with larger group. Kayaking off boardwalk on inlet was a blast. Plenty of parking. One of the cleanest properties we have stayed in! Porch overlooking pool was perfect for grandparents too!

Our Own Little Resort!

Three generations of family stayed in this home during a week where four of the days were double-red flags, making us very thankful for the lovely pool area of the home along with the outdoor games provided. The view of the lagoon was beautiful, and our grandson enjoyed fishing and kayaking right in our own "backyard!"

Beautiful Home with great pool

Our family of fourteen with 5 babies between 6 months and two years old all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house has everything you could ever want and it was so comfortable with beautiful views. The communication was excellent from booking to checkout. Don’t miss this house. Really enjoyed it and hope to be back very soon.

Family vacation- 40th anniversary

A vacation that will be talked about for years to come. We had everything we needed for a week getaway. The grandkids lived by the pool and loved catching frogs at night. The lagoon was fun to fish and see crabs. We had a few issues, but the owners were quick to respond and attempted to fix what they could. The beach was only a 10 minute walk away. Overall, a good vacation and a great place to stay!

The best VRBO stay we have ever had!

Our stay was amazing from the location, view, pool and all the amenities. Starting with the booking process, as soon as I booked this VRBO the hostess contacted me within 10 minutes. From start to finish the hostess was the best I've ever dealt with! Before we even got there, she sent us a PDF file of recommendations of restaurants and places to see. The line of communication was great and if we needed something they responded quickly. The amenities were great; the house was supplied with almost everything you could need. Go buy some groceries and your set for your stay. If you are a DoorDasher or Uber Eats family, both apps have a ton of choices that deliver to this location. During our stay there were days with red flag warnings, so we enjoyed the pool area, games and lagoon area with the kayaks. At night we enjoyed watching tv, the fireplace or just sitting outside. When we left feeling relaxed and ready to come back for our next vacation. This place is a must for a relaxing vacation!

Great family vacation

Stayed for the last week. When we got there we had a few questions on how a few things worked. Response time was super fast! The house and pool area were absolutely beautiful! The kids loved using the trap in lagoon area trying to catch crabs and played ping pong every night! Kitchen was so well stocked, pots and pans, dishes, glasses…you name it she has it. Toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, and so much more were provided here. Other places I’ve stayed have start up supplies then you have to buy your own. Great experience in all ways! Thanks for everything!

The pool.....AH-MAZING- SUPER comfy beds!

We had an absolutely amazing week! The house was very clean and comfortable! Upscale with amenities for every age group. The beds....so comfy! The kitchen is stocked with more than you will ever need allowing us eat in more than we planned! This was great so we could take full advantage of the outdoor space. We spent hours in the pool! It was like our private little Oasis. The landscaping makes this home very private. The homeowner, Cindy, checked in with us when we arrived to make sure that we were comfortable. My niece left her bag at the house after we headed back to Ohio. Cindy made sure that it was ours and then shipped to us. 5 STARS!! Thank you Cindy!

Great house, location and Host!!

This house was amazing! Very clean, well stocked and well organized. The host is also the kindest, most responsive host that I have EVER dealt with through any rental. We did not have any issues with the home but text a couple times throughout our stay with questions and received an immediate response! Check in was a breeze. You could rent this house, buy your groceries and never leave the house throughout your stay! Fully stocked kitchen. The pool area is amazing, equipped with a locking/safety gate, ample lighting, floats and plenty of outdoor seating. This is where we spent a huge part of our trip! You can fish from the bank. Hang out on the bottom level of the house outside. We ended up not using the kayaks but they are there along with seating down by the water. Drive to the beach is very minimal. One of our teenagers even rode the bike to the beach a few times. This house truly has it all and every single person said they would stay here again!

Our family had a great time at this property. The house is clean, spacious and very well stocked. The pool is even better than it looks in the pictures, and kayaking, fishing and crabbing in the Little Lagoon right behind the house is a blast. The beach is a short walk away (less than 1/2 mile), and it feels even closer with the beach cart and bikes that are provided. We had a minor issue when a lightening storm knocked out the internet service and the owners made it their major priority to get us back online ASAP. You couldn't ask for better folks to do with than Cindy and Mark. I'd highly recommend bringing your family to this home. You won't be disappointed.

Great getaway with plenty of room and only steps from the beach

We really enjoyed our stay in March for spring break. The heated pool and hot tub were fantastic and the beach was only about a 10 minute walk from the home. With nine adults and three children, there was still plenty of room for everyone. Home was well kept and had all the amenities we desired!
