Wonderful vacation in the Cannon House
This is our second summer staying in the Cannon House. It’s a lovely home in the perfect location! We have a multi-generational gathering in Ocean Park and the layout of the house is perfect for accommodating different generations. The proximity to the beach and Ocean Park stores and restaurants is perfect. And the porch is our favorite place every morning and evening. We love this house!

Wonderful large house in a great location
We were delighted by this property! The pictures do not accurately depict how lovely and spacious this house is. It was large enough for our active family to enjoy and yet also have space for quiet times. We would strongly recommend and we hope to stay here again.

Spectacular Beach Stay
We've been coming to Ocean Park for about fifteen years and this was overall the best house we've stayed in. Particularly miraculous was that it was available. The home itself is old and wonky in all the right ways but restored and updated where you want it. The kitchen was spacious, functional, and beautiful. The porch was a lovely place to perch and grill. We were skeptical of the beds at fist but they turned out to be comfortable for the whole family and we had plenty of bedroom options to suit our multigenerational needs. The common living spaces are connected enough but allow for numerous groups to be doing numerous things without being in each other's way. A half of a block to the beach made spreading the family between beach and house a breeze and so everyone stayed happy and the keyless entry made sure all members could run back and grab something without juggling keys. The runaway hit for the week was without a doubt the pingpong table which, despite being held together with bubble gum, sand, and pixie dust, hosted numerous raucous tournaments. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely family getaway locale with us. Go Pats!

Great Location/House/Hosts
Is our second time staying in the home. Exactly as advertised, right in the center of town, and one minute from the beach. Can’t get any better.

Beautiful House, Great Hosts
This is our second time staying at the property and plan to return again next year. Great location in ocean park, and just a couple houses down from the beach. Hosts and caretaker are wonderful and available when needed.

Beautiful historic house in OP!
We had a wonderful two week stay at this lovely house in OP! The location is perfect and the house worked well for an extended family vacation. We loved the proximity to the beach and sitting on the huge porch watching all the comings and goings in Ocean Park!

Big house great for visitors in the middle of town
It was a great place to stay. Very large house 5 bedrooms though one is a walk-through. It is right in down town ocean park and provided a lively background for our visit as compared to Bitterford. It is quieter than OOB though. I think this is a big house meant for 4 couples with all their kids. The beach ia right down the block and was a great place for morning coffee.

Amazing Ocean Park Property
We really enjoyed our stay. We have been coming to Ocean Park for years and this property was the perfect location—close to all of our favorite Ocean Park amenities including the soda fountain, shuffleboard and most importantly the beach. The house was perfect for our family’s stay, with a grand porch, open eating and kitchen area and laundry. It was very easy to work with the property owner and the house was very clean and tidy. We would love to return again!
