Reel Chill is right! This place has something for everyone. You can fish, kayak, paddle board, play arcade or board games, or just relax with a drink or coffee in a lounge chair on one of the balconies or on the swing or one of the hammocks. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and the whole place is well decorated with a nostalgic surf and skate theme. My family was so comfortable there.

What a great surprise this property was! Charming property with all we needed and more for our family’s long weekend stay. The beds were comfortable and the house was spotless. Loved the outside space for relaxing (the hammocks were perfect) and the boat lift, which was so convenient for our fishing trips. My college son loved the paddle board for evening rides in the canal a well. Wonderful covered deck where we relaxed and I read books a well. We will definitely be back :)

I was very impressed on how fast the Host got back with me with some questions I had before renting. We loved everything about the house there was so many added touches that I couldn't even list them all the location was perfect the house was clean and full of different activities. We will definitely stay again. We have rented a lot of houses in that area for many many years now and so far that was our favorite

Perfect Sea Isle Getaway
This place was a great place to stay for our family if 4 and pup. The home itself is full of character and has everything you’d need or want from a fully stocked kitchen, very comfortable outdoor patio furniture on the top deck and bottom floor alike (because let’s be real you come to the beach to hang out outside), a tv on the top deck which was great for the kids when they were pooped and ready to settle for the day and great linens throughout. The home is clearly very well maintained and was very clean and as an added bonus could bring our pup for the weekend. Communication with Natasha was extremely easy and will absolutely be staying again in the future.
