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!

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.

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.

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!

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Spacious house & great location!

We had an amazing trip! The house is incredibly spacious, very comfortable, and well-equipped for cooking. Having a second refrigerator made storing left overs so easy, and the hot tub and pool table provided relaxation and entertainment. The location couldn’t be better — the house is nestled right off the main strip on a cute, quiet street, just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, and mini golf. And lastly, Matt is a communicative and gracious host. We would love to stay again and would highly recommend.

Amazing vacation house for extended family

We stayed at the house with two families and a dog. It was spacious and comfortable, with a can't-be-beat location. - You can walk everywhere: 10 minutes from the free public beach, 5 minutes from the main road (minigolf, restaurants), 15 minutes to a waterpark. - Hot tub was a welcome gathering place in the late afternoon. - Huge deck and grill made outdoor meals with 9 ppl easy. - Outdoor shower was crucial - both for a rinse-off before the hot tub and after an afternoon at the beach. - WiFi and TV worked great. Pool table, games and books for some non-digital relaxation. - Kitchen was fully stocked.

Amazing House For A Big Group

We absolutely loved everything about this house! The location was great- we walked to the beach by day and to Harpoon Hanna’s at night. We walked to mini golf, go karts and a small water park. We had 10 adults and 5 children in our group and we still had empty beds! Having the bedroom with 3 sets of bunk beds with a shark decor and game table was an amazing room for children. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The hot tub, pool table, Koi pond, huge deck and fenced in yard (especially for our dog) were a big hit. The 3 sofas fit all 15 of us with room left over. The refrigerator next to the pool table came in handy. It’s a well cared for property. The house is decorated beautifully and has all amenities you need to be comfortable. The neighborhood is very safe and quiet. There is plenty of parking on both sides of the street. The owners were fantastic. We highly recommend this house!

Great vacation

Everything was super comfortable. The house held our 17 people easily. The out side shower is a life saver. The kitchen and appliances are excellent. The den and pool table were very comfortable and enjoyed. The deck and back yard were an added plus thank you for letting us bring our little dog. The bathrooms were nice but did cause a problem with getting in an out of bedrooms , but having so many beds made it worthwhile. The location was very easy To get to beach and all activities and parking was great. Having sheets and linens was a big plus. Thank you for a wonderful week. I would definitely recommend this house.

The pool table was super fun, and the outdoor shower was a wonderful experience! Great hot tub and gas grill. Lots of parking in front as well as 2 dedicated spots in the driveway. The neighbors were nice, and there was lot of beach parking a short drive to 142nd Street, just had to get there before 10:30am on the really nice days.

Amazing Place

My family and I stayed in this property for 7 days middle of June and loved every moment of it. We have been coming to OC every summer and this has to be the best place we’ve stayed at. This house totally made the trip more memorable, the pictures posted don’t do it justice. This property is clean, spacious, organized and even had bags of clean sheets and towels ready to use. The fenced backyard was a non-negotiable for us so this was definitely an attention grabber as our dogs could play in the backyard freely and enjoy the area. The neighborhood added onto the greatness as it was quiet and calm which made our short walk to the beach peaceful and relaxing. Can not forget to mention all the amenities this place has to offer, highly recommend this place if you want a peaceful, wholesome and fun getaway.
