    The property is very nice, clean and well-maintained in general. We enjoyed the beautiful beaches each day and loved coming back to the house for some refreshing time in the beautiful pool setting afterwards. The kitchen was very nice and fairly well-equipped. The main living area was very comfortable, although the downstairs living area off of the pool was a little sparse. The bedrooms were also very comfortable.

    We have rented a lot of houses over the years so I am very detail oriented. Overall the house was perfect for us. There was a ton of room and we all fit comfortably. We had 8 people for 3 days and 7 for the rest. It was extremely roomy. In addition to the bedrooms and bathrooms there was a large laundry room and an office. We had lots of outdoor space and the pool was fantastic. There was plenty of room to park 3 cars and a golf cart. The house had a lot of beach chairs and umbrellas. I did not need to rent them but they were unsure of what was in the house so I did. The credit I had covered most of the cost. There was an area you could fish off of and there were plenty of linens and extra blankets. It was close enough to walk to the bay but we chose to drive to the ocean side because it was so pretty. Parking was easy. The house is for sale so I am assuming that is why it was not in pristine condition. After renting many houses I thought for the price it should have been cleaner. I wasn’t sure if it just needed a deep clean or if it just needed to be refreshed. The walls could have used a coat of paint. They were very dirty in areas. The slipcovers were white and had a lot of stains. I feel like when you are renting a house of that caliber those things should be a bit nicer. That is why I felt like it was a littledirty. I know it’s hard to keep up with a rental with white but it doesn’t come across as nice. The house was not outdated. It was modern and up to date.

    We all totally recommend others to rent this home. Great house, great location and also the service we received was awesome. Only one note for renters especially if they are older and or shorter, there is alarms on the bottom floor that makes things a bit difficult for people that may not be speedy and agile no more. However we learned over time and had a phenomenal time.

    We enjoyed 5 nights at a Shore Thing with 3 generations of family - 8 people total. The home is GORGEOUS, more beautiful than the photos. The kitchen was well-stocked and the location was perfect. With the unusually cold weather, we walked everywhere - even with the cold temps, we enjoyed exploring the island on foot. Communication with Once Upon a Beach was easy and thorough. Our only disappointment was the fact that we could not use the hot tub as we couldn’t heat it enough to make it comfortable in the cold weather. With the evenings in the 30’s we would have loved to end the day in the hot tub but the spa was too cold to enjoy. We are from MI so we love our winter hot tub time. This is a perfect house for a large family gathering.

    We found this home on a last minute search after our first rental fell through. The property managers were incredible to work with. Very responsive. And made the whole process a breeze! They accommodated us for An early check in which was so helpful with little children! The home was extremely well equipped. The house was spotless when we arrived. We made some wonderful memories there! We can’t wait to return!

    We are just back after a wonderful week at your gorgeous home. The house was perfect for us. Great layout, so much light, very clean & beautifully decorated. The pool & hot tub were warm & lovely. We enjoyed the privacy of the backyard pool & dock area. Great views from the roof top deck! Easy walk to Bean Point & other beaches. We also loved proximity to Pine Street shops & restaurants. We definitely recommend this home & we’ll be back!

    This house is truly the most amazing place. We had seven ladies for a long weekend. Decor is five star, location peaceful and quiet. We had horrific weather so the house was our refuge. Plenty of space. Comfortable and inviting!! Great communication and everything you need to enjoy your time!
