Beautiful home

Stayed at this home with our family and it looks just like the online pictures and the location is perfect, a few steps from the beach. The home was very clean and well stocked with all the supplies we needed. We will definitely rent this again in the future!

Our very favorite place

We come to Bolivar every summer, and have for probably 15 years. This was our favorite place we have ever stayed. Super clean, nicely decorated, very comfortable. Views and location were great. Didn't wanna leave! All 10 of us had plenty of space. The best.

The Best Trip!

We came for a long weekend (me, my husband and our kids: 4, 3 and 5 months + my parents) and had the best time. We brought all our food and only left the house to go to the beach every morning and evening! The porch was our favorite spot, and we had plenty of room to spread out throughout the house. The beach wasn’t near as crowded as it is down closer to “town” so we had plenty of room to play. Loved the location and have already shared with friends! Thanks for opening your beach house to us!

Son’s Graduation Celebration

My kids and I, and a few of their friends stayed at Charlie’s place Thurs-Sun to celebrate my son’s graduation. The neighborhood is private, quiet, and easily accessible. 10 minutes from the Big Store and 10 minutes from the ferry. The home is stunning. Beautiful finishings and super cozy. Charlie has a fully stocked kitchen and a gas grill on the upstairs patio. He also has a pile of board and card games, and a container full of folding chairs and beach toys. One side of the house faces a lake and the sunset. Another faces the beach and the sunrise, and both have deck chairs and swings. There’s a large picnic table downstairs and a relaxing hammock. Beach access is a short walk across the neighborhood bridge. I can’t say enough about how comfortable we were and how many unforgettable memories we made. Thanks Charlie!
