Our Experience
Submitted: July 26, 2010
Stayed: July 2010
The Great:
Location to beach (just over a dune), the owner (very responsive and helpful with info. before and during our trip), the space (perfect for 10 people), the water (calmer and warmer than the Jersey Shore), Harris Teeter Grocery Store (within a mile of house), the views of the ocean AND bay (especially up at the Crows Nest!), the beach equipment (plenty of chairs, umbrellas, and beach toys for the kids), full size washer and dryer, a reasonable price during peak season and lots of dolphins to watch! Ample parking for our 3 cars. We really loved staying at this house for the week!
The Good:
Outdoor shower , line to hang up towels to dry, plenty of places to eat (however many of them served average food), linen service was timely.
The Bad:
Linen Service : Delivered cheap towels that not only shed all over everything, but the bath towels weren't large enough to fit over a grown man's body.
Cleaning Service: The house was poorly cleaned when we arrived. Looked like there was a dog staying prior to our visit (hair), and the kitchen really needed another cleaning when we arrived.
Some Things to Consider
This is a 3-level house, thus there are lots of stairs. Not a problem for us...but would not be a good choice for people that have challenges walking up/down stairs to the different levels of this house and balconies.
Private Beach: No lifeguards. Water was calm during our stay and our kids were ages 7-10, but some parents may be more comfortable staying somewhere near lifeguarded beaches.
