Great location near DE Turf
We had a great stay at this property while in town for a tournament at DE Turf. Hands down better then a hotel and less than 15 min from the fields. We had 3 families and were very comfortable. Communication with the owner was great. We will definitely look to this property for future tournaments at DE Turf. Thank you!

Great location
House is cute and perfect for what we needed. Owners were responsive and let us stay an extra hour after check out. Only thing that would have been nice would be a little cleaner house - there are cobwebs and lots of bugs (which are not the owners fault) but are frustrating.

Beautiful home close to the beach
We had an amazing stay! Brenda was easily reached when needed, she was kind and responsive. My children and I had an incredible time at the buccaneer bash and playing on the beach. The house was absolutely beautiful and my children loved the room upstairs. The house was very well maintained and decorated beautifully. The beds were super comfortable! It’s a wonderful house for a family to stay and enjoy the short ride to the beach!
