Had a wonderful time.. It was so peaceful to watch the canal go from left to right.. And the thoughtful amenities couldn't be better. Thank You Helms.

The master closet is nice and big to fit a pack and play in there, they had lots of comfy blankets and pillows which we appreciated. Unfortunately, the beds were not our taste, they were very firm and uncomfortable (bring a mattress topper if you can). The view is beautiful and we enjoyed roasting s'mores by the fire, only a quick drive to the jetty for the sunset! This was really nice for us because we have a bigger family and I do believe its more bang for your buck. I would bring your own cutting board because the one there is plastic and pretty worn. Do not leave any food out! Big raccons roam around at night, we had a big one out on the front porch and he was enjoying our chocolate and hamburger buns.
Overrall we had a great stay with a few very minor things that could be easily improved.

Nice place and very cleaned.
The price for the night is reasonable but the extra fees are exaggerated , we paid more than half of the total for the 3 nights in extra service fee.
The check out is also very early but I asked for an extra hour and the host in charged allowed us to do that. Thank you again for that.

Nice place in a great location on the canal. Couldn’t ask for more!

My boyfriend, a couple friends and I stayed here for 4 days. The home exceeded our expectations and was much better accommodated than the one we stayed in last year. They have all supplies you could need for a short or even a long stay which was a pleasant surprise. The dock would have been more enjoyed if the weather had been more agreeable but what else could we expect in March lol. May be staying next year!

I cannot say enough about this house! It was perfect for our family and I loved that it is dog-friendly. The canal and dock were hits for our 5 year old who loves fishing. The house had everything we needed, so clean and cozy. We will definitely be back!

Great location and kept up household. Close to beaches and family fun spots. Only suggestion we have is to consider adding a gate for dock (we have young children).

I did not receive the code for the lock in advance and thankfully able to reach the house owner via Ring device on the back porch.

The property was as listed and I would recommend to anyone looking for a get a way. The fire pit was awesome, each night S’mores of a different flavor rocked the desert menu. Everything worked perfectly and it was just what we hoped it would be…
Thank you to our host and the team for making this a wonderful experience.

Great stay
We had a great time at this home. It was clean, quiet and well appointed. We didn’t know before this stay about the wonderful canals in Ocean Shores. This home doesn’t have direct canal access but does have a great view. It’s a short drive to town and beach access points. We loved traveling with our dogs and really appreciated this property being so dog friendly. A couple suggestions would be to have dressers in the bedrooms and increase bed size from queen/full to king/queen in the bedrooms.

Great place to stay
Perfect little place for our family to enjoy! Loved the fire pit and the location of the home. So close to venture to the beach but far enough to come back to the quiet canal and make smores! The home was clean and had everything we would ever need! Thank you!
10.0 / 10.0
This place was great. Super clean and they had labels for everything that was provided. Anything you can think of that you would need was there. And it was so peaceful by the canal. The fire pit was so cute, we would’ve used it if it wasn’t raining. The location was perfect, just close enough to town but far away enough to stay peaceful. We would definitely stay there again. We wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Amazing property
We had so much fun! Was a good location, we thought it was going to be walking distance to the ocean. But it was still fun!

Lovely canal home
We loved staying at this beautiful home on the canal. Great location and very peaceful. The home and kitchen was well equipped and comfortable. Lovely view of the canal from the covered porch. Loved the firepit. Would not hesitate to stay there again or recommend to someone.

Excellent location, very well-equipped
This place is fantastic. We saw way more deer than we saw people. Just a really great place to stay. Very clean with everything you need to have a really nice vacation.

Comfortable stay!
We enjoyed this home on the grand canal for my mom's birthday. The home was clean and comfortable and our one issue (internet went out) was resolved immediately. Absolutely loved the well stocked kitchen and we enjoyed cooking our meals there. The picnic table outside was a nice addition where we could eat and enjoy the breeze off the canal. We even had a deer come and visit! My only complaint would be the water pressure in the hall shower, but I wouldn't take a star out of the rating just for that. We had a very relaxing stay!

Very relaxed and accommodating
Very nice house, the property management was superb and very accommodating. Close to main town yet far enough to be quiet. Various animals walked right up to the porch including several deer, geese and ducks. Adults, babies, males, females. Highly recommend

Adorable
Well maintained and lovely home backing the canal. Short drive into town/beach. The home was easy to find, easy to access and easy to follow directions for check out and amenities. They have everything you could need and it was so nice to relax in such a cute space. Great place to spend the weekend!
