Property owner was very clear about check-in with no problem entering the property. It was perfect with everything we would need...and then some. The property was clean, spacious, private, fun. It was steps from the beach. Beautiful view of the sunrise! We all had a wonderful week. Thank you very much.

Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay. Jennifer was very friendly and responsive throughout the process. Location is both quiet and super close to amenities. We used the tennis court at the nearby high school and it was a short walk to rent surfboards and wetsuits, for example. Loved the dining room, amply supplied kitchen, grills, and the PORCH! Beds very comfortable. The bathrooms are uniquely set up but very adequate for our mixed age group of eleven. We loved the charm and history and closeness to the water and beach. We hope to return. We voted and it's our overall favorite of a half dozen area rentals we've stayed at together.

Great location! Perfect for family stay.

We loved this house! With some younger kids in tow, this location just can’t be beat. With a skip across the street to the ocean or the ability to grill out back and have kids entertained with available toys, we thoroughly enjoyed the full extent of this stay. Thank you, Jenn!

Great Location!

This is our second stay in this house. It is a great location directly across from long sands beach. It is a 10 minute walk to the ice cream shop. Ample sleeping area and listening to the ocean waves crash as you fall asleep is amazing. Will definitely try to rent again in the future. Owners are quick to respond to messages and questions.

Wonderful week

Such an ideal location! The house is large enough for all ten of us. We have four children and six adults. Plenty of beds with a great breeze through the windows at night. We watched a storm over the ocean, fireworks by Nubble light and seals all from the enclosed front porch! Very clean and comfortable. The owner is a joy to work with!

Wonderful stay!

Everything about our stay was wonderful. The owners were helpful, responsive and a delight. The house was everything we wanted, from the location to the great spaces inside the house for us to gather together or to have some alone time. The front porch is an absolute delight for the sunrise and the back porch for amazing sunsets. There were great toys for the kiddos to play on that kept them occupied for hours when we needed a break from the beach. The kitchen had everything we possibly needed. Just a fantastic time and already have our next trip booked!
