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!

Nice weekend stay

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 house

This was our fifth year with our friends weekend getaway and this is by far the best property we’ve stayed at. The location is perfect as it was about a 2 minute drive to Bowers Beach. The house was stunning, very clean, perfect layout for families with children. The host is amazing and very responsive. She even had a pack and play, high chair, and stair gate for us since we had little ones along. Bowers beach is a perfect place to come with children since it is on the bay, the waves are calmer and the beach isn’t crowded. We would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a quiet getaway. Cell service around the area is not the greatest and there aren’t many restaurants but the whole point of vacation is to disconnect, and the kitchen is large enough to comfortably cook in and it has all the necessary cookware. Again, we can’t say enough good things about this place. We hope to return soon.

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!
