The kitchen boasts an extra deep sink, a Keurig that brews single cups or carafes, microwave, tea kettle, and more in this fully stocked kitchen!  And the open floorplan means you can cook and not miss any of movie or game night in the living room!
Grab a mug and fill 'er up with complimentary coffee, tea, or hot cocoa in the cooler season. We're open year round!
Sharp knives, spices, utensils, oh, my!  You can cook as much or as little as you like here (we won't judge) and some of our guests have made fabulous family feasts here.  The over does just as good a job keeping pizza warm!

Great location!! The host are amazing and have a very fast response time.They answered every question and made our stay comfortable. The house is perfect and enough spaces. Close to great greenway on the sound side. Perfect area to store fishing stuff.
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Perfect rental for a quick getaway for myself and my husband! It ended up being a last minute scheduling, but that process went smoothly and quickly. The inside of the house was perfect, clean, and homey! Well stocked with kitchen supplies, towels, blankets, and beach goodies. The top deck, though it was the best spot, was pretty worrisome, structural wise. But then it could just be our own worries lolIf I had to mention anything wrong (only bc it's in the rental agreement that if we left this, we could be fined) was that there was a couple things left outside from whomever prior, which we mentioned to the host.
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2025
We had an amazing time at the beach house. It was so close to everything but tucked away in a cute neighborhood. Everything was clean and ready for our arrival. We especially loved the third level deck! Amazing ocean breezes in both the morning and evening!
6 / 10Average·Aug 2025
Goal: provide detailed & balanced overview of property & our stay experience.Pros- Kitchen: good counter space. - Washer & dryer, outdoor shower, keyless entry, beach parking pass useful and handy.- Main area is relaxing for reading etc.- Decks add living space. - Quiet neighborhood w/almost no traffic. Overall private feel.Cons- Cleanliness of bathroom, kitchen, floors good. But many areas needed a good cleaning (baseboards, coffee table, window sills, end tables, decorative items). - At check in, ground level seating area had animal droppings. Did not leave a good impression; furniture also had sand on it. - 2 wet & soiled washcloths were sitting in the washing machine. - Kitchen reasonably clean, but cupboards & drawers VERY disheveled. Lots of utensils, etc, but the only "pancake flipper" heat damaged. One burner unpredictable.- Outdoor deck has seen better days. Had to be careful not to catch feet on nailheads. Topmost deck has a vertical railing post missing. - Furniture in main room is so-so. Well used & dingy.- Hair dryer missing.- Very dim lighting in staircase.- Mattress in yellow room has depressions. I slept with head at foot of bed.Very positive reviews from prior years. When furniture & mattresses were newer, decks in better condition, cleanliness and organization taken care of, items not missing, 5 star reviews make sense. We feel the property could use some attention to restore five star experience.
