Home away from home
Everything about this spot was a dream. It felt like being at home but in paradise. We hope to come back💞 Our fav thing to do was bbq and watch the sunset from the back yard. Amazing food and snorkeling nearby as well as fun shopping a few miles down the way 10/10

Would stay here again!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here for the second half of our stay. They gave us a welcome kit with a roll of toilet paper, paper towel, some hand soap and dish soap. The views were amazing and it was so much fun to wake up and walk down to the beach. On the side of the house there were some beach toys, snorkel stuff and a boogie board, probably from previous renters. Overall it was amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Cute Family Bungalow
We loved this house, area and overall experience. The beach below has little swimming spots if you walk about 500 feet. We felt at home and would come back! We were sad to leave.

Heaven
This beach house was such a treat. Being oceanfront with the sand, only a few steps away, whale watching every morning while drinking coffee, and the grass area for playing ball and sunny lounge chairs made it an extra wonderful. Be sure to bring your headlamps for night time tide pool exploring, we saw an eel! Thank you for the wonderful retreat. WE WILL BE BACK!

A whale of a good time.
We loved our little bungalow on the ocean and were sad to leave. Perfect for a family of four and had everything we needed for a pleasurable stay. We especially enjoyed whale watching from the lanai where we saw tons of activity and even a few whales breaching off in the distance. This place is a gem. Thank you!

Waterfront Paradise
This little house is clean, well-appointed, and the location is absolutely stunning. We loved walking in the flat rocks of the Long Beach. It’s not ideal for swimming, but it’s wild and wonderful. We even saw humpbacks breaching in the distance. Each room has an adequate air conditioning unit. We did have a little trouble with accessing Netflix and prime. The Rooster seems to crow on its own schedule, but he and the hen watch over the property, along with the little family of cats. We loved it!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay here in the Northshore beachfront house. It was perfectly sized for us and it was great being right on the beach for the kiddos. We also met a few of the neighbors and they were also wonderful.

Beautiful Oasis for the family
We came here for our kid's spring break and of all the places we've ever stayed (hotel and house rental), this is our favorite one by far. The dream landscape of having an oceanfront home in the beautiful North Shore, basically your own private beach and only being minutes from anywhere you'd want to go in the North Shore has it meeting every checkbox we could imagine. The privacy from the neighbors was also great. Thank you so much for sharing your home. We will absolutely be back and have recommended it to anyone who asks :)

Love the Back Porch
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A very nice little house. Clean and comfortable. Looks bigger in the pics than it is. It is just over 700 Sq Ft but the porch is nice and big for you to spread out on. Chickens, roosters and feral cats are to be expected. They ask you not to feed them. This was especially hard for us and it eliminated any outdoor eating for us. Don't expect any small things like, pens, paper, chip clips, fly swatter, etc. Beds and ACs were good. With temp while we were there - had to keep the AC on until night. No cross breeze in the house. hard to hear the waves with the AC on. Nice beach to walk on but not an "entry" beach- pretty rocky. Overall a nice house.

Peaceful property
The house is definitely older—probably from the 1940s, and in need of some TLC. Would be nice to have had some basic toiletries, laundry soap, scissors. Did have plenty of towels for the beach and even 2 chairs which is nice. Outside area is beautiful and right on the beach. I would definitely recommend it for a stay. Can also rent the houses next door if you have a big group and the yards connect. Close to Foodland, Ken’s Fish, food trucks. Also close to Turtle bay which my kids enjoyed because the beach is calmer there.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great compound and even better customer service. The Team at Team Real Estate follow thru on everything they promise and some. Gracious and flexible. It's a great location to get out of the hustle and bustle and just relax in the tranquility of the North Shore. The house(s) are exactly what you'd expect from a North Shore house. Don't go in expecting luxury, use your rational expectations.

Lovely respite from a busy world
This property is a great example of a beach house. View? Literally sitting on top of the beach. Steps away from the ocean. Small maintained yard with sheltered outdoor eating area. One of my favorite things to do is enjoy my breakfast and relax to the sound of waves lapping on the shore. The house itself is clean and practical. It has been recently painted and the kitchen and bathrooms are up to date and functional. The bedrooms have comfortable beds and along with the living room air conditioned. Fortunately we did not need to use the AC too often but when we did it worked well. Location was convenient as well. I hope to return someday soon.

Have done better
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All was fine until the last day maggots cane up from under the floor board in the living room. And then to be fined for a broken screen door that was fine when we left.. Highly suggest someone checks under the house for a dead animal... probably a chicken. Gross. Once that is taken care of the location is beautiful and fair price.

Beautiful, peaceful, comfortable
Cannot wait to return. This was the ultimate north shore, serene escape for us. Some highlights that made this a comfortable rental for 5+ days - RIGHT on the beach. It is rocky but perfect for small children to explore tide pools. 5 min walk on beach to a swimming/sandy area. We planned to explore north shore a lot more but the property was so great with beach access we barely left the place! Nice spacious kitchen, well stocked. Wine fridge! Great indoor and outdoor showers. Effective air conditioners in each bedroom. Comfortable beds. Lots of storage areas. Washer/dryer. easy parking in front of the home. You will be right beside 3 other rentals - safety/comfort in numbers but there are dense bushes lining each home for privacy if you're not feeling social. The resident rooster will wake you up at 4, 5 and 6 am but thats fine because you can head to Ted's bakery (5 min drive) to get the freshest pastries/breakfast each morning.
