My family enjoyed our stay here. The kitchen is well stocked. The house was nice and tidy when we arrived. We really enjoyed all the outdoor seating options as well. The option of renting the golf cart is great too. It made getting to the beach a breeze. I would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing visit

We truly enjoyed our stay. The location of the property is walkable to beach, dinning and retail. We were able to bike to most places on the island. The outdoor space with shaded tree had to be our favorite aspect of the house. Bill/owner was responsive to questions and provided all information needed. Check in and out process was easy as can be.

Great stay!

We stay in EI every New Year’s and Bill’s home was exactly what we needed. It was welcoming, clean and the little things (such as available spices for cooking, and coffee filters for the coffee maker) which made us feel immediately comfortable). Bill allowed us to check in early and even reached out, since I had never responded, to see if we needed linens. Thank you for a great week!!

We enjoyed our stay. Our area was severely damaged by hurricane Helene and it was wonderful to be somewhere with power and water. Bill was gracious in accommodating our stay. It allowed us time to gather ourselves and relax before heading home. Much appreciated

Great place

I don't have much to add to all the other reviews. It was completely consistent w/ how it is described and reviewed. Place was very clean and comfortable. Kitchen was extremely well stocked with utensils and cookware. Was within easy walking distance to restaurants, ice cream and shopping. Owner was very responsive and helpful. I do recommend getting the golf cart, it made it much easier for accessing and carting stuff to the beach.

Very clean , host was very responsive and did accommodate us , allowed us to bring our 3 large dogs , allowed us to check in early , didn't like that in description said that there was a wood lot across street and there was two new houses being built and was loud and noisy all day couldn't enjoy sounds of ocean. Beds were not comfortable and master bedroom bathroom was very small especially the shower.But house was fully stocked and golf cart was nice. Would stay there again.

Great value on the crystal coast

The house was clean and well-stocked with every cooking tool and implement we could think of. A short walk to the beach, which was less crowded at that location. The grocery stores are close by, which is also a nice feature. I would definitely stay here again. Best of all, it's pet friendly.

Late November visit

It was comfortable and clean. Liked the decor. Liked the game room on the ground level. Appreciated the explanation of the entertainment system and how it worked. It was a great home base for visiting, as local relatives could come over to visit. Beach was a block away. we avoided the linen service fee by bringing our own linen and towels.
