Occupancy time on Fridays for weekends can be as early as 11:00 AM and departure as late as 7:00 PM so as to avoid traffic and enjoy another day at the beach.

This large house sleeps 26 people and is waterfront on a lagoon with a fenced-in, gated back deck and boat dock and an upper-level front porch with lagoon-front views.

Place has lots of bedrooms for large gathering. Kitchen is stocked with plenty of dishes, glasses, pots and kitchen accessories. Description should mention there is only access between the levels outside. We didn't bother locking the doors as the sliding glass doors could not be locked. Place needs renovated but good for a large family. Place also provided kayaks which was great..

We so enjoyed our stay on this property! All 7 of our children, spouses, significant others and 6 grandbabies all fit with room to spare. The layout seemed odd when we first viewed the property but turned out to work just fine with plenty of ways to access both levels. The beach was beautiful, the neighborhood lovely and the weather cooperated during our stay. We so enjoyed the outside space and the use of kayaks was a treat. Our host was accommodating and very nice as we had the pleasure of meeting her upon checkin. Thank you Nancie for a wonderful week with our family!

We had a great time staying at this location. The home (although a little dated) was perfect. Plenty of room, close to the beach, right on the canal, and centrally located both to Bethany and Fenwick.

Exactly as advertised and very comfortable for our family trip. Easy walk to beautiful beach and well stocked with everything we needed for our large group.

Could be better. For this kind of money it needs updating. Very hard to wash/dry/pack all linen before morning check out. Bedrooms not conducive to adult couples planning get away from kids.

Two spaces for the price of one. Grandparents enjoyed the lower level and access to the dock. The next generation were comfortable upstairs. Community activity on the shaded back deck made everyone happy. The canal access was perfect for kayaking.

We docked our boat up to the back deck. The back deck was very nice and easily accommodated our extended family. The house was well stocked with linens and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and small appliances. The dryer on the first floor took a long time to dry clothing. But the biggest negative was the fact that there were no inside stairs connecting the first and second floors.

The listing was accurate. We had issues with the wifi. Phone service in that area is not very good so the wifi was slow even when it worked. Other than that, it was the perfect place for our large family group.
