this is the perfect beach house with amazing views. It is in a good location to some outstanding restaurants. The view is worth it on the porch overlooking the ocean.

Good Ol’ Time Americana

The house was a charming vestige of times gone by that are still very much with us. While unassuming, it offers anything and everything you seek for to spend some lovely time at the best beach in the world. Everything that you need — a place to keep good company and the beach — is right here. If you are particular about cooking, I’d suggest you bring your own cooking utensils. But the Japanese dishes will make your dishes shine. Wonderful location and a very comfortable home. Thank you for sharing your hospitality!

Looking to relax...

Loved the house, the location. Unfortunately for us neighbors in a 3 story next to us were trying to relive their college years with loud, drunken parties that ran to the legal limit of 11 pm. The property management was top notch and very responsive to requests. We're strongly considering putting this rental in our beachfront seasonal rotation.

Relaxing week

The property is located on the beach and offers a deck and porch which makes enjoying the view wonderful. All the beach chairs there are old and rusted. The dog washing station is a nice touch, but the knob is broken off the hose. The grill is charcoal only. The house needs renovation. We had a wonderful time despite these unfortunate concerns

This cottage worked out perfectly for our family! The location is great, right on the ocean! They provided chairs for us to use and though we had no children, there were toys provided also. The kitchen was very well equipped and had everything that we needed. Ceiling fans in every room were enjoyed by us. A nice large tv in the main room, as well as tv’s in each bedroom. The porch was our favorite spot! Nice outdoor chairs enabled us to sit on the covered porch enjoying the breeze, and the table provided the perfect spot for our games of Yatzee. Having the made made upon our arrival was amazing! One less task to worry about about loading and unloading the car! I would gladly stay here again, as it is charming. Plenty of coffee mugs, charcoal grill and chairs were my most appreciated items.

Great House for a small group

We love the house. We were concerned when it was sold and moved to a different realty company, but James has been super responsive when any issues have come up, no matter how small. And they continue to make improvements to the property. We don't take a large extended family to the beach (and don't want to), it is usually just me and my wife and dog, so we are thankful to have such a nice house this size since we could not afford one of the giant houses that are being built these days.
