Wonderful memories were made! The property was spacious for four adults and three young children. The house was clean and well stocked. The beach is a bit of a walk, which we knew from staying in the area previously, so we took our own wagon and beach items. One thing that I would note for other renters, the road getting to the house is natural and narrow.

Great vacation

We enjoyed our stay at Dolphin Cove very much The house was just the right size for our group. I was very glad we rented a wagon to take our things to the beach as it is a little bit of a walk.

GREAT stay at Dolphin Cove!

We really enjoyed our stay at Dolpin Cove. The house was extremely clean upon arrival, cheerfully decorated in "beach" decor without being "condo beachy". Excellent beds, plenty of towels. Just a really happy place to stay. We will definitely try to rent this home again in the summer.

We enjoyed our stay and the house was very nice and clean. We loved the screened-in porch and the beach view. The beach is a short walk from the house. To watch the sunset we would drive to the rocks / stump hole. Sun-rise can be seen from the Bay. There’s a book in the house with lots of helpful information regarding restaurants and things to do. We rented bikes and those were enjoyable as well.

Great Family Spot

Very nice and clean house, great one story layout (above the stilts). Screened in porch was very nice and bug free. The provided beach chairs and cart were very convenient. Nice quiet location a few hundred feet off of the main road.

Great home for a family setting with great porch and open concept!

We really enjoyed our time spent within the home. Lots of lounging areas between the screened porch, living room and dining room/island. Enjoyed quick walk down to beach to enjoy the morning sunrises!
