Lovely, clean dog-friendly home near the ocean.We had a wonderful, peaceful stay in this exceptionally clean and charming 4 bedroom, 2 bath home. It is a very relaxing place with a big fenced-in and shaded backyard that we enjoyed with our dogs; a large wrap-around deck we enjoyed with a glass of wine as the sun set; a large well-stocked and highly functional kitchen for preparing our local seafood dinners; and with quiet comfortable bedrooms, a great place for resting. We had a great time each day walking 3-5 minutes over to the quiet nearby beach to go swimming, shelling, and just taking in the sights. The hosts, Drew and Sarah were fantastic, ensuring the home and yard are well kept and stocked. They were excellent communicators. This is our second week long stay. We plan to return again!!

This vacation rental was definitely the best equipped place we've ever stayed. We wanted for nothing...Plenty of towels, hand soap, lots of extras in the kitchen, games, loads of books, not to mention plenty of beach chairs and even a wagon to pull everything. We really had a very nice week. Great stay! Highly recommend!

The house was perfect for our family of 6. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. We used the trail on clam shell for beach access. We found it was closer and less busy than the Chicahauk access. We would stay here again
