The property was well maintained and so close to the beach. We especially enjoyed the private pool. Julie was fantastic to work with and very responsive. I left behind 3 dressed in the closet and she not only shipped them to me, she didn't charge me. Great experience!

Perfect location and space for 2 families

This is our 5th year staying here and at this point Julie is like a friend. She is amazing at making sure you have what you need and so responsive to any issues. The house is in a great location with a quick walk to the beach or less than 10 min to drive on beach. The pool area and screened in porch are perfection. The kitchen is really well stocked which makes cooking meals very simple. Another amazing trip has ended and we are so looking forward to next year again already!

Making the memories!!

We loved having the best of both worlds... beach all day and pool all night!! It was a quick, easy walk to the beach. The pool was outstanding, tho could use some shade. The house was comfortable, with plenty of room for us to sit. The kitchen had everything we needed! We had a few visitors (deer). We loved all the trees, that created privacy around the house. Sitting on the balcony you are not looking right down into the neighbors pool... 10/10 a great place to stay for a family beach vacation!!

The location was superb!!

The location was amazing, such an easy walk to the beach (even for my 2 year old) but felt as if we were in our private cove surrounded by trees. Such close proximity to the awesome park down the road, the lighthouse, and the 4x4 beach to see wild horses. The house was child friendly, kitchen fully stocked and the host was easy to get in touch with and very responsive. My family cannot wait to come back

The house was amazing! We loved it and it was great for our children and extended family. Right on the board walk for an easy walk to the beach. Our kids loved the pool. Julie was great to deal with. Would definitely recommend.

Perfect location

Julie has a lovely property. It is clean and comfortable. The pool was perfect. The beach is a very short and easy walk. We rented bikes, learned to surf, and saw the wild horses. This property was close to everything but still peaceful. Don't hesitate to stay here.

Vacation in a Tree House

Julies property was a wonderful stay. Nestled in the trees, the 3rd floor seemed more like a stay in a tree house than at the beach. Do not be fooled though, a quick walk on the direct path to the ocean gives you the best of both worlds! Private swimming pool, comfortable beds, fully furnished kitchen made our vacation one of the bests we ever had!

Great Family Getaway

This property was amazing! It had everything we needed and more. We could not have asked for a better place. Make sure you rent bikes and ride all around. The lighthouse and places to eat is a mile away. Also, wild horses are a must see. The pool is great to jump in and get refreshed. We will stay again!

Great place to stay

Location was great. Right next to the boardwalk to get to the beach. We used the beach chairs, umbrellas and beach cart. Was nice to not have to rent. Pool was wonderful. Kitchen was well stocked. Lots of spices to choose from. Loved the porch swing. I think it was everyone's favorite spot. Would definitely rent again.

So Convenient!

The house was clean, the kitchen was probably the best stocked kitchen we have ever seen in a beach house, and it was incredibly close to the beach. What more can you ask for? The kids loved the pool and moms loved everything else!

Beautiful Home in Great Corolla Location

Perfect home for a group of 4-6 people. Walk to the beach was about 10 minutes and a well constructed walkway right by the house made it easy to get to. House was furnished beautifully, beds were comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed, including an amazing selection of spices. Pool was the BEST -- and we'll never rent another home without one! Thank you, Julie, for sharing your home and for all the suggestions you made to make our trip so memorable!

Discovered Gem!

The pictures of the house don’t do it justice! The house is beautiful, clean, has just about anything you need, and has a great layout! It’s secluded, but a few steps away from the access path to the beach. There’s plenty to do in the area, and the host (Julie) is great with providing information prior to check-in about places to eat and places to go. We’ll definitely be back! ❤️

Clean, convenient, great Beach House for small groups with children

Convenient location to all area attractions. Very clean,open floor plan, great kitchen, several decks and porch swing were a plus. Clean pool, short walking distance to the beach. I was traveling with grandparents and my children. Everyone had a great time. Julie was very quick to respond to any questions I had. Only thing I would recommend is a gas grill and a railing for the pool stairs. Other than that perfect vacation house will be returning.

Perfect for two families

We have stayed at Julie’s house the past 4 years and we keep coming back to it every summer because it’s just perfect. We have two boys and two girls between our families and the bedrooms they share are perfect. It’s a short walk to the beach or less than 10 min to drive on the beach in Carova. The pool is private and is a great set up to enjoy. The kitchen is stocked with anything you may need which we appreciate since we cook mostly every meal. Julie is incredibly responsive and just a delight to work with. We will be back again next summer!

Great Location

The easy 2 block walk way to the beach right off the driveway is a giant plus for this property. The pool was clean and enjoyed by all. Wifi weak on 3rd floor (owner working on that). Been in rentals with better kitchen supplies--no starter paper towels, no dish towels, rags or sponge, no dish detergent--dishwasher pods were plentiful. House decor very tasteful. Owner responsive to questions while at property.

Such a GREAT vacation house!

This was an amazing vacation home! We have a family of 4 and my parents and all had plenty of room. We have 2 small children and both LOVED the bedrooms that seem to be decorated just for them. The walk to the beach was very manageable even with 2 small kids which was a relief and the beach cart that was provided made it even easier! The house was well stocked and had everything you could ever think of. Julie was great! She help me through some booking issues that we had and was extremely helpful during our stay. Very responsive! Look forward to staying here again soon!
