The property and area is beautiful and convenient. The house was clean and kitchen equipped with almost everything you need to make a meal. The children enjoyed fishing off the deck and crabbing. They also enjoyed the ping pong table, foose table, and riding bikes. The beach is two blocks away and wonderful outdoor shower to wash away sand. I would stay here again and recommend this vacation house to others. The only thing to improve would be to replace the two queen mattresses upstairs. A fantastic location.

This property is lovely. The home is fully updated and extremely clean. The kitchen has everything you need and the amenities go above and beyond. Bikes, kayak, beach chairs, ping pong table, etc. A short walk to the beach, bike path, walking path, stores, and restaurants. Couldn’t ask for more!

This home was perfect for my boyfriend & I and the 7 teens we took. It was beautiful, and spacious & comfortable. They thought of everything! The bikes & beach chairs & wagon were a big plus! Close to everything. It was an amazing week. So grateful we could do it.

As always, Don’s place was a cut above the rest. The attention to detail was apparent throughout the house and we could not have been more comfortable. We can’t wait for beach week next year!

We had a great stay at Don and Felice's beach home. Pre-stay communication was prompt and informative. The home is well appointed, beautifully decorated and very clean. Location is in a quiet neighborhood, just a quick walk to the beach and a good variety of shops and restaurants. We will definitely be back next summer!

We had a wonderful stay at Don and Felice’s home. It is in a great location on a canal with a short walk to the beach. Upon arrival the house was spotlessly clean. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need to cook and enjoy large family meals. The garage/game room was a favorite hangout for the adult children. Evenings sitting out by the canal are so restful after a fun day on the beach. Inside the home there is plenty of room for people spread out or gather around the table to play one of the many games supplied. All of the beds were very comfortable. It was the perfect week. We are looking forward to returning next summer!

The location is great for popping over to the beach and is convenient to many restaurants and shops. The house was well-appointed and is set up with plenty of room to spread out which is perfect if the weather is lousy or if you have a large group. We cooked many meals and found all of the items we needed were on hand. Overall, the owners have thought of everything to make the stay as enjoyable as possible, and as others have noted, are extremely welcoming and available to answer any questions that arise. An enjoyable week at a beautiful home.
