Overall very nice.
The overall best things about this property is the large size and how close it is to everything. The finishings are a bit dated but everything was very clean. The only downside was that the front deck was not clean (although being near trees does that) and the patio furniture could be replaced.

September vacation
Great house with a great location. The owner is very friendly and easy to work with. 100% would recommend this home if you and/or your family/friends are in need of a rental. More than enough space and bedrooms to accommodate multiple people without feeling like you're on top of one another. The only suggestion I can think to offer would be some shelves or medicine cabinet in the downstairs bathroom. However, this would not stop us from staying here again if we were in need of a rental!

Great setup for littles and pets
The wrap around porch and fenced in yard completely encloses the space making it ideal for free roaming little children or pets. Helps adults to rest easy that they cannot get to the road. Spacious. Ideal setup for a multigenerational beach get away.

Overall good stay.
Beautiful house with lots of room for a large group inside and in the back yard, parking however with trailers for a large group going into the dune it is not quite enough at the location. The leafs in front of the entrance door could’ve been at least raked away from the steps upon arrival, along with the dead carpenter ants that were in the rooms and bathrooms, upstairs and down stairs. Once again, over all was a good stay, rest of the house was clean and operable. Everyone really enjoyed the stay. Thanks again, Tom.
