Great place for a large group

This house was great for our group of 14, lots of room, close to the beach. It was super stocked with everything we needed, including beach chairs and bikes. Matt was great, easy to communicate with and helpful, even allowing a little later check out on New Year’s Day. It’s an older house, a little funky layout with the bathroom walkthrough to the kids suite, but it worked for us. We loved the hot tub, especially after our annual cold plunge in the winter ocean. We would stay here again for sure!

Everything we could possibly need!

This was a great house with so much to do. The beach was so close and there were tons of great restaurants around. The house itself had everything we could possibly need, and the outdoor space was fantastic. Very grateful we found this place that met our entire groups needs!

Great Location

We loved that this house was away from the main road, but close enough to walk to the beach and nearby Sunsations store. The boardwalk is only a 20 minute drive away. It was nice to have a private backyard with a patio and hot tub. The pool table was a huge hit! The bathrooms are a bit awkward with two bedrooms being in the other side of them, but we made it work. We would love to come back!

Very comfortable

This is a great place for a medium sized family. There were ten of us and there is plenty of space inside and out for relaxing and enjoying family time. The kitchen is well equipped. Apart from the strange layout of having to enter the back bedrooms through the shared bathroom/laundry, the house was perfect for our family needs. We liked it's proximity; close enough to the beach to walk.

Wonderful 1st experience

This was our first VRBO rental and it turned out great. First time ever we had all our kids and their kids under one roof for something other than a holiday gathering. Lot's of beach time and we appreciated all the supplies the host provided. Check in/out was smooth and the host was very interactive in communications. We're looking for a different venue next year, but would definitely consider it for a future vacation. Thank you Matt and Colleen!

Wonderful cozy winter beach retreat

We loved this property for our large family. It is comfortable and graciously appointed. It has a well stocked kitchen and plenty of space to spread out. The kids and adults loved the hot tub. It is a short walk to the beach and there are groceries, restaurants and entertainment venues nearby. The host was responsive and a pleasure to work with. I recommend it for any season.

Great Family Place

We loved the location, the patio, hot tub, yard and the spaciousness of the house. We were lucky enough to see a huge variety of birds visiting the elder tree in the yard, the owls, several bald eagles flying over and the friendly squirrels! The fenced patio and yard was perfect for our pup. We will be back! Matt was absolutely great to work with.

Large Family Thanksgiving

We rented the property for our family of 17 for Thanksgiving weekend. The home was as described. The large family room was able to accommodate us all for family and game time. The guys had a great time shooting pool. The home was clean and well equipped. Easy walk to the beach. The only small challenge was both full bathrooms provided access to a bedroom and the bunk room. The host was readily accessible for questions or concerns. Overall wonderful experience.

lots of great gathering space

we enjoyed a nice week with 11 family members. The house had everything you need and the host was extremely responsive! outdoor grills, a well stocked kitchen and 2 fridges worked out great. Plenty of places indoor and outdoor to eat, playgames and enjoy family time. Host was correct 145 th beach was perfect. Beach was Handicapped accessible and there was a local hotel right there that had a pool bar open to public. It was a great place to stop for a drink and dip in the pool before heading back to house. Beach was walkable but also alot a free parking available except on Saturday (very crowded). Overall highly recommend this house.

Our family vacation

We were so happy with our stay at this wonderful VRBO. We had 10 adults and 5 kids under 6 and there was plenty of room for all of us. It came with everything we needed and more to just enjoy our stay. We loved how close it was to the beach (within walking distance) and all the attractions, and yet it was a quiet street and neighborhood. We felt very comfortable there. The outside space for the house was very nice. We even shared it with a neighborhood bunny. The hot tub was wonderful and we spent every evening on the deck. Our only regret is that we didnt have a longer stay to enjoy more of what was offered. Thank you for this wonderful opportunity to enjoy our vacation, the ocean and some time together as a family. Memories we will cherish forever.

Perfect Beach House

This was the 2nd time we’ve stayed in this house. We love the 6 bedrooms and pull out couch in the family to fit our children, their spouses and our grandchildren. We loved the hot tub, fire pit, bikes, well stocked kitchen, beach gear, fenced in yard for our dog, the big deck with lots of seating, and having the sheets and towels provided. Our grandkids lived feeding the fish in the koi pond in the front yard. The location of the house is perfect with quick accessibility to Fenwick and Ocean City. It is a very short walk to the beach. Caine Woods is a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic and plenty of parking on the street. We enjoyed walking to Harpoon Hanna’s at night. A water park and miniature golf are very close by. The owner had great communication with us all week and checked in to make sure everything was ok and even gave us a reminder to take the trash out for pickup on Tues. and Fri. This beach house is perfect in every way!

Lots of beds, not best layout

Nice house with a bed for everyone. We had a difficult time since the only access to 7 of the beds is through a bathroom. Very awkward. The house could use another bathroom considering how many people it can hold. Everything else about the house is lovely.
