Enjoyed a very peaceful Columbus Day weekend. The house is clean, adorable and welcoming. A few houses down to the beach, and a few houses away from a coffee house. Owner is very sweet.

Everything about the house was great!
Everything about the house was great! Its about 6 houses from the beach. Very convenient location -- close to stores and restaurants; also close to Rt 72 so its easy to get on/off the island.

A Cheap Shared House
I know you get what you pay for, but the listing for this home was misleading - it did not state that you are renting the bottom of a two-story home, and the owners are staying upstairs with a dog. We heard walking, barking, and TV over our heads. The house is old and in disrepair. There is a sign in the only shower that reads, "use outdoor shower whenever possible!..." and continues to explain 6 steps you must take to prevent an indoor plumbing disaster. After a beach day, I went to use the outdoor shower, but the owner was in there, asking me to wait until she was done showering. When we first arrived the sink in the bathroom was not draining, and dirt from the previous occupant was floating in it. The AC unit in one bedroom was manufactured in 2003 and no longer cools properly. The owner's framed warning sign reads "Do not turn setting higher than 7. The inside wiring of the house is old and heats up and could cause a fire if over loaded". The other bedroom has no AC. During a thunderstorm, the ceiling leaked in two places. We put pots down to collect the water and texted the owner. She said she would come down and take a look in the morning, but she did not. After cleaning the whole house per her instructions, we checked out 30 minutes early, ready to go home.

Great vacation home close to the beach
Comfortable home, convenient location, attentive owner. This was a great place to hang out at the beach for a few days. Would definitely recommend, return, and stay longer.

Great home, very close to the beach.
We absolutely loved our stay at this home. The check in process was very easy. The house was very clean and cozy. It was so nice to be able to spend the day at the beach and easily walk back to the house for snacks and lunch. The outside shower was great for cleaning up after the beach. We would definitely book this home again.

The beach house is a little gem on the island, the owner is very nice and the facility is very clean. It's convenient to the beach and for a small family would be perfect

Came for a long weekend and it was perfect. BBQ dinners with peace and quiet. The beach access was wonderful with a five minute walk to the water and the outdoor shower was new and clean. Enough room for our extended family to join us. Owners were friendly and helpful. Sunset at the bay was gorgeous and was a nice 15 minute walk. We will be returning

Great experience, great place!
The Beach House was super clean, spacious while cozy, and so close to the ocean and extremely comfortable. It was close to many shops, restaurants and amusements. Everyone was extremely helpful and welcoming. I would would highly recommend the Beach House.
