Such a lovely and relaxing stay here! Beautiful and so private, the deck is fantastic and the views so great. Unfortunately the water was brown from the sink and there wasn’t enough filtered water for the three days we booked.

Wonderful beach stay!
Fabulous! We highly recommend people stay here. Everything was very clean. Beds were all comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. Access from the highway is down a long driveway so the yard is very safe for dogs and the beach is incredible. There Loved it!!

Magical location and comfortable home
Returned to this magical spot and it didn't disappoint the second time around. In fact, there were several improvements which indicate that the owners truly care about the home, the guests, and their experience. Will definitely come back!

Relaxing hideaway
It's a beautiful setting and a well-appointed home- a very comfortable stay for my family. If you're someone who wants to white glove test the baseboards, keep scrolling because these hosts don't need that kind of negativity in their lives- but if you are looking for a peaceful location, well-stocked and cozy, you'll find that and more. Hospitable hosts- we booked another stay before leaving the property :)

If you are looking at ultra luxury this Vrbo isn’t for you but if you want comfort, amazing surroundings a well stocked home with basic necessities look no further. The host was so kind and extremely helpful. This Vrbo gave us so much more than a place to stay. This Vrbo gave us memories that will last a lifetime.

Right on the beach!
This place was actually right on the beach, just like the photos suggest! And even better it's basically a private beach. It's the only house at the end of a private drive and we lucked out with low tide! The rooms were great. We had 3 adults and 4 kids and had beds to spare. Lots of dishes and everything else we needed, including plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Would definitely recommend for families or multiple families.

Peaceful and serene
It felt like home. My daughter and I had a week long getaway and we were so comfortable. Overall the description was accurate. We enjoyed watching the change in tides and the oyster farm in the distance. I would suggest that if you’re planning to stay here that you should get your groceries including bottled water to drink prior to arriving, this is a remote location. Otherwise it will be on our list of places to stay.

What an amazing spot
The location is unbeatable, with a private beach full of life and within earshot of the star spangled banner every morning at 8:00. With a view to the east, the sunrises are spectacular and sunsets paint any cloud cover with vibrant colors. The house itself was bigger than expected. This isn’t a 5 star resort, but it felt like home. Every essential is thought of. The beds are comfy, big table for family dinners or game nights, kitchen had everything I could think of from making pizza to Christmas ham. This place is a dream getaway

You won't believe the location
Yes it is a little out of the way but so worth it! This location is amazing and almost unheard of for a rental property. We had the entire bay to ourselves for three days!!! Exploring tide pools, watching wildlife from the deck, and kayaking. So incredible we already booked again. House is well stocked. Nothing special about beds or house and some things are a little older or run down inside but absolutely nothing that bothered us. Owners were very responsive and helpful.

Unique location, peaceful, beautiful…set up for large groups, children, pets
We enjoyed our stay and appreciate a place available for groups and comfortable with pets. A few things however, could have made our visit better. Although the house was clean, there are needed maintenance issues.We spent most of our time out on the deck and it is in desperate need of replacement. It is so weathered and rough that one cannot walk on it barefoot. The deck furniture is unappealing and uncomfortable. I so wanted a lounger for relaxing and reading, or at least chairs with pillows. We also found the windows hard or impossible to open and most lacking screens for summer air flow. With such an amazing location, the deck and views outside should be the stars of the experience.
