Reviews
Richard
We had an excellent stay and experience for 10 nights in March. The house is spacious and well-appointed. The kitchen is fully stocked and includes very nice appliances. The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. The pool (with added heat for March) was great. We spent a lot of time soaking up sunshine on the patio. The gas grill is new and we used it often. Using the walking/bike trail at the end of the street leads to an easy walk to Boardwalk 38 and access to the beach. It’s about a mile and took us about 10 min to walk there. WiFi was strong and the office area was convenient to do some work. The management company was very responsive, very friendly and easy to communicate with. We will definitely look to stay here again.
