Great property, well maintained, rooms laid out well, plenty of bathrooms! Short walk to boardwalk and mall. I would stay here again readily! Just don’t care for $150 VRBO FEE.

Great location
A short walk to the beach or to the mall was ideal. Two parking spots was also very helpful and there’s a beautiful weeping willow tree in the backyard!

Delightful spring weekend
The house was exactly as pictured, clean, and in a great location. Easy walk to the beach and shopping/dining area. Ideal for 4-6 people - more might be a bit crowded.

Completely satisfied
The house was perfect and location was great. Everyone that I spoke to were extremely helpful. Linen service was such a help with having to bring so much down for my sons wedding. Only issue was not enough trash / recycle cans so we did the best we could.
