I recently stayed here for Memorial Day weekend. The house was amazing and perfect location to the beach, although we did not get to utilize this with the bad weather. Easy check in and check out. Rooms and bathrooms were very clean. Thank you to the host for allowing us to stay at this wonderful beachy home!

Bright and comfortable condo with very well-appointed and large kitchen. Space enough for our large family of 18 when eating. Nice view of bay. Liked how there were overhead fans for all the bedrooms. Great outside shower! And nice to have the beach chairs and umbrellas. Lots of stairs were a bit challenging for older family members, yet they managed. Noise from adjacent Route 1 took a bit of time to get use to.

Fun Stay

We had a fun stay at this property. Great for a family. The only negative was that it is in need of a deep spring cleaning (especially the living room furniture) and some small maintenance.

Summer Family Vacation

We had a wonderful time at Oyster Cove. The property was lovely and you can't beat the proximity to the beach and one of our favorite spots, Matt's Fish Camp. The owners were very responsive, although we had no issues during our stay.

Roomy w/Easy Beach Access

This home accommodated our three generation family very well. The upstair's suit was perfect for our gaggle of kids! Its location is walkable to the beach and it also has a pretty view of the bay. :) (It is right beside Hwy 1, which is a bit noisy.) Overall I would recommend this property!

Bethany Holiday August 2023

Oyster Cove is a perfect spot for large families to stay. We enjoyed the spacious living areas, kids bunk room and quick beach access. We had a beautiful view of sunsets on the sound. The unit provides lots of beach toys, chairs and an umbrella. The extra fridge on the lower level was great for drinks and food. We would stay there again!

sweet 16 surprise

House location was amazing, but constant beach traffic on the road made sitting outside abit unenjoyable. The house was perfect for the size of our party. we ran into some few small issues, but the property manager/owner were very responsive.

House layout is excellent for large family

House worked really well for our family!! Quick walk to beach and room to spread out. Evenings on beach were fantastic!! Only drawback is as others have said, the highway right next to the house was quite loud. Also, I know they are trying to turn the house over each week but should spend some time working on outside decks and basement.

Close to the beach but too close to the road

Plenty of room, well stocked kitchen and the neighbors are quiet However, it is impossible to sleep in the house at night due to the very loud traffic from the road - it is constant. If you are able to put up with loud traffic, then you should be fine.

Great home but some things need fixed

Place was great but some things needed fixed. The decks outside the kitchen (1)and the living room (2)had spindles that were loose and we had infants who could have gone through them. Also had 2 kitchen lights above the bar that the bulbs were blown. Also light on 3rd floor steps was blown also. The edge of king size bed in the master bedroom stuck out further than the mattress and we hit that many times and my wife hit it hard enough once to cause a huge bruise. We moved the bed further away from bathroom to see if that helped and it did but still did it again. Building is near the highway, which we knew ahead of time. It was noisy in the evening a good bit. Overall, it was a great week with our family !

The house was nice. However, we were greeted by both garbage cans totally overflowing. When we put our trash out on Monday', it was totally in the open. Additionally, the Master Suite Bathroom sink was clogged and we had to clean it. It would benefit your guests of the Master Suite to have a step up for the bed. The house was close to the beach and it gave us plenty of room for our whole family.

Not for clean freaks

The house is nice, we were all comfortable and had a good time. The kid’s room on the third floor was especially great. It’s worth noting this is the very first house in the neighborhood, so closest to the highway (kind-of noisy) and furthest from the beach. Our main gripe is that overall, the house was not clean. The check out procedures put the burden of cleaning on the guests and the state of the dishes, floors, counters, table tops, and quilts/pillow shams had us all wondering whether basic cleaning occurred between guests. The bottoms of our feet were black within a few hours of arriving. Outlets in the house didn’t seem to work consistently, a stopper for one of the bath tubs was missing, there was only 1 broken spatula in the kitchen. Minor, but annoying. I’d love to stay in this neighborhood again, but I might try another house.

We were very pleased with Oyster Cove. Wonderful layout but too many steps for our older adults. Great access to the private beach. When we left today we didn't know where the week went, we would've loved to stay another week.
