Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family stayed at Kara's Sandcastle for two weeks and enjoyed our entire stay. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed. We appreciated all of the cooking equipment, including good knives which are rarely found in rentals! We also liked the enclosed deck, ramp, and dog area for our Wheaten Terrier. The ramp was super convenient for moving our stuff in and out and was also great for our elderly grandmother who has a hard time with stairs. We really liked the woods behind the house which meant it was nice and quiet. Kara's Sandcastle is a super quick walk to the beach and the rolling cart was very useful for bringing our umbrellas etc. The house is ideally located near shopping and off the main road. We hope to come back soon!PS It is a dog friendly house, so there was dog fur on some of the blankets and covers, but since it was so hot we didn't need them. As dog lovers ourselves, we didn't mind, but thought you should know. ##### A guest from Englewood Cliff, NJ This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Eileen M.
