ANCHOR POINT: Walk to Beach - Walk to Town - Private Setting

Tucked away on a quiet road just minutes from Downtown Union Pier sits this newly constructed 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home. Built with attention to detail, this home offers two levels of living space – allowing for greater privacy for guests. The covered front porch and a screened-in area allow guests to enjoy the summer and fall months outdoors. Great home for a single family to come and enjoy Harbor Country, and some of the most beautiful sunsets anywhere.

We kindly request that guests refrain from hosting large parties or family gatherings out of respect for the neighboring homeowners, many of whom reside here year-round. By fostering a sense of harmony and consideration, we can ensure that everyone enjoys a peaceful and rejuvenating stay.

Bring food, drinks, personal items, and the good times.

This property is well maintained and equipped for the comfort and convenience of our guests. Our vacation rentals include well-equipped kitchens, living and dining areas. Linens and towels are provided. Homes have washers and dryers, dishwashers, central heat and air conditioning, cable/satellite television, DVD players, high-speed Internet service, and outdoor gas or charcoal grills.

We ask that renters bring condiments, dishwasher soap, laundry soap, extra toilet paper, and convenience items like plastic wrap, aluminum foil, and zip lock bags. We do not supply firewood for homes that have wood-fueled amenities like a fire pit or a wood-burning fireplace. We do not resupply anything during the stay. We provide two rolls of toilet paper for each bathroom, 2 rolls of paper towels, 4 garbage bags, and hand soap in each bathroom -- so plan according to your needs.

Minimum Age Limit for Renters: The guest signing the rental agreement/contract must be 30 years of age or older (ID at check-in required) and must be responsible for the group during the entire time of the stay.

Maximum occupancy restrictions: The number of guests at any WAYA managed property can not exceed the maximum occupancy number (or sleeps number). This includes invited guests, friends, or additional family members. Events, parties, or family gatherings are not permitted without express written permission prior to booking.

Anchor Point Family Fun
The location of Anchor Point is very good. It's a pretty easy walk or bike ride to the beach, though we carried a lot of stuff- beach chairs, umbrella, drinks, towels, toys--making it a little cumbersome on bikes or pulling the wagon! The house is great for 5-6 people. The fold out couch in the loft is very uncomfortable, so I would not recommend anyone sleep there. Otherwise the beds were fine, the house was clean. There need to be washcloths, and more toilet paper available.

Loved Union Pier - House needs deep cleaning
This was my first experience with VRBO so I was a little nervous. From the outside the house was cute, but the inside was very dirty! The trash cans were not emptied, the downstairs shower was not cleaned, the bedding had some blood stains and the kitchen drawers were filthy. I did not know what to expect so I brought my own cleaning supplies and bedding, which turned out to be a good thing, but when you are on vacation, the last thing you want to do is clean someone else's mess! The house needs a deep clean! I called the management company to complain and was told that there were issues with the cleaning people and that we could stay 2 hours longer on our last day --- that did not do very much for someone like me who was already grossed out by the dirt. The other issue that I had which was maybe due to my lack of VRBO experience and the need to ask questions, was that the pictures of the house showed a 2nd tv. I actually picked the house because it showed a second TV because my son was coming with us. It turned out that the TV was not functional - so it really should not be in a picture of the house! The location was not ideal mostly because they were putting in a new blacktop parking lot in the hotel behind the house - which was extremely noisy. You could still walk to the beach from the house - which we did and once I cleaned it - things were better. I am not sure I will do VRBO anymore vs. a hotel because I expect things to be clean!

This well stocked property was perfect for us. The loft provided a space for the grandkids to play and the adults on the main floor had their own space. The fire pit was awesome. Close to many activities. The kids really liked the near by play grounds.

Fantastic getaway
We were two couples looking to get away from the city for a weekend. Location was perfect - it was an easy 1/2 mile walk to the beach (which, although eroded, was gorgeous and wild and incredible to walk down). It's a small house with everything you need - kitchen is well appointed with good quality pots and pans, fireplace is gas so it's provides warmth without the clean up of a wood fireplace, lots of games, and a firepit outdoors (which we didn't use because it rained for much of our stay but it looked inviting!). A bakery and general store are less than a five minute walk away and restaurants less than ten. Property manager was extremely prompt in answering the few questions that we had. We would definitely stay again.

Loved the cottage, roomy, clean & well maintained. Our only complaint was it sat directly behind a 2 floor hotel & the walking distance to beach was misrepresented as only 4 blocks. Other than that, lovely cottage, we had a great time!

Great Beach Vacation
Such a fun get away! This home is only a 4 block walk to the beach, equipped with everything down to grill lighters and playing cards. There is a great back yard, fire pit, and we loved it’s open floor plan layout. We brought our young children and never ran out of fun things to do around town. We highly recommend and will be back!

Great place
House is very nice and quiet. Back porch is bigger than it looks and it is great to spend some time out there when the bugs are bad. The house is an easy walk to a few general stores, restaurants and coffee shops, which is great. The walk the beach is a little long depending on what you are taking and whether little kids are involved, but there is a few parking spots at the nearest beach. I would definitely stay there again.
