The property was adorable it had a lot cabin vibe and beautiful inside. The beach was in walking distance and easy to access. The only downside was the towels/rags for bathing we only had one rag provided and 4 towels for 5 people so we bought some rags and a few towels and made it work. Other than that it was a great place to stay!!

The trifecta!

The price, location and vibe (teenagers added that) made for the perfect stay. The proximity to the beach was fantastic! We struggled with the hot water supply a bit, but would absolutely rent again!

Great Beach Cottage

This was a comfortable stay for our family (me, spouse, two teens, and our dog). There was plenty of room, beds were comfortable, yard was spacious, and it was a short walk to the beach. We hope to be staying again soon.

Great Home to stay at

My family has vacationed on OKI for generations, and this was a first time staying this close to the Old Bridge. We thoroughly enjoyed the house and found it easy to get to the beach as it is just across the street. We would recommend this home to our other family members, friends, and neighbors.

Very easy walk to the beach. The house was like sleeping in a mountain cabin but at the beach. I don’t have small kids, but I was very impressed with the bunk room. One whole wall is a chalkboard.

Great place. I would definitely stay there again. A couple of minor upgrades would make it much better though. 1st fix the shower head in master bathroom. Upgrade the furniture. Supply more necessities such as more trash bags and a bigger trash can. If you are going to get the cheapest paper towels and toilet paper please supply more. Add televisions in each bedroom. Upgrade the cushions on the screened in porch couch. With all that being said we loved our stay there. Very convenient to beach access. Screened in porch was very nice to sit and enjoy the weather. Washer and dryer were new and easy to use. The grill came in handy several nights. The reviews that mentions the neighbor are true. He likes to listen to his music kinda loudly. Although he was very nice and considerate. He made it a point to speak with us and tell us if he was too loud to let him know. Good thing is he played good classic rock music

Overall stay was great! Very clean and loved the yard for the dogs with outside hose to wash off from a day at the beach. The A/C had a little bit of a hard time cooling on the hot day, but overall experience was 5/5 stars.

Long weekend

We got hit with a tropical storm but enjoyed relaxing in the house & going to nearby restaurants. When the sun came out, it was a short walk to the beach & it was fantastic. The neighborhood is quiet, friendly, and great for running & walking the dog.
