Excellent location, and beautiful, comfortable home.

We loved everything about this home. It is perfect for families with small children because the beach is wide and the water shallow. It had all the amenities you need for a family week at the beach.

Lives up to its marketing. No phony photographs or representations whatsoever!

The home was simply lovely, beautiful setting, very spacious. The beds were very comfortable. Beach house that feels more an exclusive home than a typical beach getaway. We will look to booking again. Very tastefully decorated, excellent kitchen with all the tools you would find in your own home.

Perfect family time with 90+ year old moms!

We love this beautiful house! The sunrises and ocean views are the perfect antidote to long New England winters. This is the second time we rented in February to share a week with our 2 over ninety year old moms. They love it and we three sibs and our spouses find it a great way to relax.

Perfect respite time!

The house and location couldn’t be better! It’s a two-hour drive away, the house has been a great vacation destination for us with our 2 ninety-plus year old mother’s and siblings each of the last two winters. With COVID-19 restrictions, my husband and I found the house as inviting for a romantic getaway! Everything you need is there and conducive to rest and relaxation. We’ll be back!
