About this property

The house is located on the 'Third Row' of Sandbridge. It is a short walk to the beach. Sandbridge has a white sandy beach and fun surf. It is not too rough, but has ample waves for boogie boarding and surfing fun. Pitch your umbrella and enjoy the day. And, of course, our new pool, added in 2021.

Cathedral ceilings and large windows provide an open, outdoorsy feel. Rough cut cedar walls and pine floors throughout. Living area opens up to a screened breezeway. The breezeway has wonderful sea breezes and shady areas throughout the day. Plenty of deck furniture makes it a wonderful place to gather. Master Bedroom/Bath (QB) is off the main living area. Bedroom 2 (QB) and Bedroom 3(2 sets of twin bunks) and 2nd bath are separated from the main part of the house by the breezeway. There is also an ocean side sun deck with a table and chairs and umbrella. It is a great place to sunbathe, and is shady and cool in the evenings.

Situated on a large sandy lot surrounded by sea grasses, bayberry and wax myrtle, the property has a secluded, beachy atmosphere. Enjoy bird watching and gorgeous sunsets over Back Bay.

Please note that the house rents weekly only from Saturday to Saturday.

Unique Stay

We enjoyed this vacation even though our weather was less than desirable. Having the pool was great since it was raining a little bit every day and the walk to the beach was nice! The road the house was on was a little busy, so we had to walk our bikes to the street behind to ride, which was fine. The only complaint is a weed that was growing in the back lawn. It had burrs on it that stuck and hurt badly! So we couldn’t play anything in the back unless it was inside the pool area. Hosts communicated great!

Family trip

Our kids loved the house. We enjoyed the pool so much. Our kids got the biggest kick out of their room being off the breezeway. The beach is a very short walk and we spent a lot of time there as well. My only complaint is the house has some plant somewhere in the yard that leaves very sharp tiny objects outside and we had to always be wearing sandals and watch out for them.

Wonderful stay!

There were 4 adults and 2 kids (10 and 7) staying here and it was perfect. The pool is beautiful and great for either before or after the beach. Speaking of the beach, it’s a very short walk to the beach with many access areas nearby. Our family took our bikes and enjoyed riding the almost 10 mile trail that starts in Back Bay. The rooms were clean and cool and the “breeze way” was an amazing place to read or just relax in the evening and have a cup of coffee in the morning. We look forward to coming back in the years to come!

Great house!

This was perfect for 5 adults and 2 children. Plenty of room in dining/living room. Kitchen was on small side but well stocked. We grilled every time we ate in so wasn’t an issue for us. The pool was a great bonus!! Walk to beach was an easy distance. Will definitely stay here again.

Week in Sandbridge Beach 2023

Property was exactly as described. Very clean. Good communication from owners. House had everything we needed for a week. Personally would have preferred a propane grill (we knew it was charcoal when we booked so no surprises there!). The charcoal grill was in good shape and we used it every day, sometimes twice a day! Nice screened in decks with nice views. The pool was amazing! Great size for us (4 adults). There were beach chairs, beach umbrellas provided. The AC worked great in the entire house. Beach access was 1 house away - VERY convenient!! I would definitely stay there again!

Great Stay!

This was an absolutely beautiful and interesting home to stay for our vacation! The lay out was perfect for our daughter to "have her own space". The home could use a couple tiny updates/fixes but nothing that stopped us from enjoying our stay! Definitely a cool, old beachy vibe! Communication with the owner was also easy and quick! Overall 5 stars!

Awesome! But difficult layout for very young kids

I have a 4 and 6 year old. The 2 extra bedrooms are detached from the house and are secured by individual dead bolts to securely lock. My kids cannot open or close a dead bolt with a key, so if you have young children and are reading this, make sure you/they will be comfortable locking themselves in their rooms. Would be ideal for pre teens and older! The breezeway has 2 hook and eye locks on the screen doors, so we didn’t feel comfortable leaving them out on the breezeway with the deadbolts unlocked. That being said, the house was charming, very clean and very comfortable! We loved the potted flowers on the breezeway and the pool was wonderful and clean!

Wonderful classic beach house in a great location

Our family (2 adults and 2 kids) had a wonderful week at this house. The location is great, just a short walk to the beach, easy to come back for lunch. The pool is an amazing bonus, I think we used it everyday. The house was very clean and had all the supplies we needed, including linens. It's an older beach house with a cool vintage feel that we liked. The screened-in breezeway with 2 bedrooms on the other side was a great layout for us, although I could see parents with very small children being worried. Everything at the house worked fine. A nice supply of books and games to keep us busy. Don was very responsive and helpful. At one point we managed to lock ourselves out, but a quick phone call to him fixed the situation. Overall, a great vacation week!

Fun in the pool

We enjoyed the pool, especially the kids. It gave them something to do before going to the beach. However, I do wish the weeds had been cut down around the yard and a handrail to get in and out of the pool. My oldest daughter has Cerebral Palsy and it would have made it so much easier for her to get in and out. Overall, we enjoyed the house.

Great, Low-Maintenance Cabin space

Great rustic feel, beautiful screened in porch space, comfortable and accommodating. The pool is beautiful. The check-in process was easy and smooth. I personally didn't mind the short walk to the beach, but family members with more health problems would have preferred something closer to the water. I wouldn't plan to cook anything crazy in the kitchen during the height of summer, as the air conditioning does get overtaxed, but for a quick meal on the stovetop it works just fine. Tons of dishware and normal cookware are provided.

About the host

Hosted by Don Tracy

We bought our house in Sandbridge from friends. We had visited many times and liked the open floor plan with the screened breezeway and high ceilings. We call it 'the house of porches' because it has so many places to enjoy sitting 'outside'. We like the fact that we can enjoy the ocean and bay without leaving the house. The short walk to the white sandy beach beach is another reason we chose the house. This photo was taken of us at the house in 1981, when we were newlyweds.

Why they chose this property

What makes this property unique

The house is just a short walk to the wide sandy beach. A beautiful white sand beach, surf, and summer water temperatures in the mid to high 70's give Sandbridge every amenity that makes US mid-Atlantic beaches so enjoyable. It has nice surf without being too rough. The waves are big enough for a fun day of boogie boarding and surfing. If a playground for smaller children is desired, Little Island Park is a mile or so down the road. It has a public guarded beach, picnic areas, a bath house, and playground equipment. If a nature walk is your preference, Back Bay National Wildlife Refuge is just a little further down the road from Little Island.
