8.6 out of 10, Excellent, (1001)
"The property was well maintained. One thing was strange. They offer a kitchen with appliances but there were only two coffee mugs present. Not a single dish, glass, fork, knife, pot or pan. Seemed odd to say the least. We worked with our own paper plates, cutlery and food that we brought from home. Working the microwave with any plates was a little funny. "

9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (252)
"When you first pull up to this property, it is very unassuming… But the minute you open the door the first words out of your mouth will be “WOW! The door opens to this large living and kitchen area and your eyes go straight to the amazing view out the back windows of the house… the view off the back deck is stunning and is perfect for sitting out there and watching the sunset… It is literally a short walk to the boardwalk, which is amazing considering parking down there is 25… This place was so...
