Great house with plenty of space and great location

This was our first time visiting this area as we were trying to get away from the crowds and just relax, enjoy the beach and spend time with family. I was unsure at first with the house not being directly on the beach however we were so pleasantly surprised. The house was exactly as described. Lots of space, very clean and had everything that we needed. The fenced in back yard with the pool was perfect. And…. Our fur babies loved it as well. It was actually less than 300 steps to the beach for me( yes I counted), it only took just a few minutes to get to the beach and there was great access to walk to it. Wayne and Victoria was excellent to work with and made sure and everything was taken care of. We definitely plan on coming back!

Great overall

This property is pretty cool and within a short walk to the beach. The pool was great and we enjoyed the fenced in backyard for our pups. The bears and the garbage were a problem. We picked up trash every day we were there and it added an unexpected element to our trip. I feel like it's a pretty big ask for renters to pick up trash daily, spray it with ammonia, etc when bear proof cans could solve the issue. The sliding door off the main living area needs to be replaced. We ended up not using it mainly because it was simply too difficult for us to open and close!

The house was exactly as described in the listing—clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable. We especially loved the large fenced-in yard, which was perfect for our dog to run around safely, and the pool was absolutely beautiful.The location couldn’t have been better. We enjoyed peaceful morning walks on the dog-friendly beach and spent our evenings relaxing on the decks, taking in some truly stunning sunsets.Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and we’d definitely come back again!

House was exactly as pictured (actually, it looks even better in person). Kitchen was well stocked and perfect for cooking while still being a part of things. The kids had a great time in the pool and the dog loved getting her zoomies out in the fenced yard. We had great weather for beautiful sunsets and stars. Victoria was super helpful and easy to work with. We would definitely visit again.
