We wanted to find a place close to the beach for the Labor Day weekend. The location was perfect. Short walk to the beach and overlooking the dunes. Lots of fireflies in the evening, lots of nostalgia for me. Haven’t seen them in years. We look forward to staying here again!

Another excellent stay

This is our third time staying at this house. We love the quiet location and the house layout. The expansive deck is perfect for enjoying the outdoors but being close enough to the kitchen for a quick drink refill.

Quiet, Unobstructed View of Beach

Clean, comfortable, had board games to play; we could walk to beach in 2 min from front door; we will come back; I could see my kids go to and from beach from our balcony and talk to them the whole way. So close!

Private Paradise

A wonderful property right along the path to the beach. The beds were comfortable and the patio was spacious with adjustable lounge chairs. The kitchen had everything you need to prepare meals. It was wonderful to have a relaxing place on the water like this. I plan on returning in the summer months .

Mosquitoes

Nice property but it is located around a lot of grass. So if there is any rain at all and water standing watch out for the mosquitoes! They were terrible.

Great location/Communication

This was our second time staying at this property. We love being on the quieter side of CB and it's a short walk to the beach. We rented a golf cart this time and it was much easier, plus we enjoyed driving the beach in the evening. The owner is SO nice and easy to communicate with. The beds are very comfortable and the wifi/AC work great! The only thing I'd recommend to the owner is to update the kitchen appliances. The fridge is fine, but ice trays are kind if tedious. The stovetop was very difficult to keep clean, and the dishwasher hardly worked (half the time the cleaning tablet wasn't even fully dissolved). For the price and being beach front, I just think it needs some updates compared to other homes we've stayed in. Otherwise it's a great property and our family always has a great time!

Peaceful is exactly what it is

No beach ruckus because of the wetland buffer. You can see the water which is perfect but not the beach which for us was perfect. Lots of breeze. The house is well stocked and perfect!! I’ll be coming back to this.
