    This house had everything we needed. We loved kayaking/canoeing, and the kids loved fishing and crabbing. It was about a 7 minute walk to the beach and walkable to many restaurants.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our recent vacation at this wonderful house in Fenwick. It was stocked with everything you could possibly ever need at the beach. Truly, all you need to bring is your bathing suit and clothes. Kim literally thought of everything! The house was very clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated. Contactless check-in was seamless with very clear instructions. The short walk to the beautiful beach was easy with the provided beach carts. We really enjoyed being on the canal watching the wildlife--little fish, turtles and birds. It was our first stay in Fenwick and we absolutely loved the town. We will be back!

    Awesome!!! We stayed at the Cottage on Glenn for a long weekend and wished we could stay longer! This property had everything you could possibly want on your beach vacation-bikes for all ages, coolers, beach carts, games, kayaks, SUP, tether ball, sand toys, the list goes on and on. You just need to pack your clothes and sunblock; they even supplied the best beach towels. The house was well stocked inside as well. Our family of 5 had plenty of room to spread out. Kim was an excellent host and no detail was overlooked. We will definitely be back.

    We had an amazing time in this beautifully decorated fun beach house. There was plenty of room for everyone and the amenities are unbelievable. Everything you need (cooking utensils; dinnerware; bicycles; canoes; snacks in a basket; really nice makeup remover individual packets; nice soft cotton sheets, beach towels, wifi - I am probably missing a 100 items). The outdoor shower is amazing - I never showered inside all week.
