Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Jacalyn Ackerman

Owning a beach house has always been a dream of ours. We have finally made that dream come true! We love sharing our home with other families so they can create lasting beach memories too.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this home when we came up the steps to the living area and saw the sweeping views of the ocean. Then Jaci turned and saw the kitchen and we knew this was our forever home at the beach.
What makes this property unique
We can fit our entire extended family and there is something for everyone: fishing for my dad, puzzles for my mom, the beach for the kids and outdoorsy grown-ups and lots of socializing space. Did we mention the huge kitchen and spectacular view of the ocean?
