Great location by the beach.

The house was perfect for our getaway and the hosts very responsive. The house is a short 5 minute walk to the beach and very clean. There were plenty of rooms and beds for all 10 of us. Would recommend for any family looking for a quiet getaway.

Relaxing

This is the 2nd time we've stayed here. Communication with property owners was great, the house was very clean which is why we like to stay there. Close enough to the beach without having to be right on it with all the crowds, so it was a nice and quiet weekend.

We rent a beach house every year now that most of the kids are grown. This has been the best experience so far! The location is perfect, house is well maintained, and the owners checked in on us to make sure everything was going well. I will definitely stay here again!

One of the best houses we have rented: beautiful, full of extras--great communication with owner!

This was a great decision to stay here for a few days with basically immediate family, the name indicates, coastal distancing. Loved the Belgian waffles, even with 2 days of raining, followed by one freezing night, we had a blast. One of the very best places we have rented!
