Great location for a large group
Had an awesome time at OOB. The house was large and had a great lawn and plenty of parking. Walking distance to the beach.

Great house and property
We all had a nice time, my family liked location and convenient walk to groceries, beach and Pier Only draw back was coffee pot wasn’t correct for the coffee maker, the first time we made coffee it didn’t end up in pot and their was no directions so we ended up driving to D&D in am, however it was no big deal and if that is the worst thing to happen on a vacation I would say we were lucky. All and all a great time was had by all and the place was lovely

Good place to stay
The house was a good size. It was clean and ready for us. It would be nice if the owners would come in and take care of some details, getting some things around the house fixed. But it didn’t cause a problem with our stay. I was very annoyed that there were no dish cloths, dish towels or hand towels for the bathrooms. We had to go out and buy some. There were also no extra sheets or pillow case covers. Those would be good for the extra air mattresses, and I’m not sure why they would provide pillows with no pillow cases. There were exactly two towels and two washcloths per room, and that was it. Also, only 7 beach towels, not 14 as the listing says, and the walk to the beach is over 10 minutes. It wasn’t as close as I thought it would be, but still walking distance. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the house worked great for our family. I hope the owners will fix some of these details for future occupants.

Overall Happy with suggestions!
We’ve stayed at OOB houses in past years and have to say I was overall really happy with the house space/layout and location. Really great for big gatherings, never felt like we were on top of each other in the house. The ability to text (instead of call or an app) with questions/requests was awesome and convenient. They were quick to respond and definitely helpful! Feedback: Cleanliness - I think overall the home was generally clean but it felt like we were the first renters of the season or it had only received a generic “turnover” cleaning. Just felt like a good deep cleaning would be a plus for the floors. AC- the listing said bedrooms upstairs have window AC units but only two bedrooms have them. There are window fans available but the miscommunication/wording was a disappointment (two girls in our group were very pregnant) and it was pretty hot one of the nights even with all bedroom doors open trying to disperse the AC. Just suggest updating the listing wording. Bedroom space & general decor - renter feedback I think they could downsize & remove a lot of table decor or the oversized seating in each bedroom - it didn’t feel cluttered but just wanted to share it could be simplified to give more space :) Overall we really were very happy with the stay and would definitely come back for the overall house + beds were very comfortable - just felt there were some minor areas for improvement that we wanted to share

A bed broke and no one responded to fix it. The sink disposal did not work, and the internet was down for a day and at other times it was slow and inconsistent.
