This place was perfect for my family of 6. Very clean with a beautiful, well kept back yard. Close walk to beach and all the attractions. Met the owner who was very friendly and caring. We stayed on the lower level which was perfect for my 2 year old. We will definitely be booking here again in the futur.

Great Stay!

Our stay at Meadowlard was fantastic! The property was exactly as depicted in the listing and most importantly, CLEAN. The place is especially great for those with kids. There is a large outdoor area to enjoy and no stairs inside the unit to worry about. Harris Teeter is right around the corner and the beach is a short walk from the property. Property manager was extremely responsive. We will definitely stay here again!

Good location. Less than 5 min to beach. Lots of plates, cups, utensils. Only 2 bathrooms. Lower level, can hear upstairs neighbors, but not too bad. Harris Teeter very close (1 block away). Landlord was very responsive and helpful.

Exactly what we were looking for as a family of 4 with teenagers who wanted to be close to everythin

We wanted somewhere that had room for us all but with privacy and close to the boardwalk for the teens to do their thing. This is the place! Direct walk to the beach past a great hotel with food and drinks for all. Right in the center of the boardwalk area and the owner had chairs and toys for guests to take to the beach. The house is great and the remodeling was well done! Make sure you read the guest book for great tips and rules on the parking passes. And Harris Teeter in walking distance too! Overall great place and experience and we will be back! Thanks Frank!

the house was wonderful but it could have been cleaner. the master bath sink drained very slowly and the water pressure was low. the listing shows 2 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, but there were only 2 bathrooms. The stocked supplies were very plentiful and helpful. the owner was very responsive to my questions. great location. would rent and reccommend to others.

Nice location

The house is no more than 2 blocks from the beach which made a perfect location. Overall a great condo, well air conditioned for humid and hot weather. Has a really beautiful backyard, bummer we weren't able to enjoy it as it was just way too hot to be outside beyond the beach. Frank was welcoming and responsive. There is a grocery store few minutes away. One parking spot for the property. One little note - this is a condo on the first floor, you may be at the mercy of the neighbors upstairs in terms of quietness during quiet hours. Still -a great house in wonderful location
