Beautiful house, great locations, pools were wonderful. Overall, a perfect family vacation. Would definitely come back!
It was a very clean and well stocked house. The owner was very easy to deal with and quick to respond to any questions or concerned.
This was a big beautiful house with a great pool area. The shuttle service to the beach was a let down though
The house was clean, well maintained, and very well appointed (enough silverware, pots and pans, movies, games, etc). We’d go back anytime!
Beautiful, well-equipped resort villa with plenty of room for 8 adults. Immaculately cleaned upon arrival. Great location to all the amenities. We would definitely stay here again.
My family (two children, two grandparents and my husband and I) stayed here in June 2023. The house is beautiful and wonderfully appointed. The beds were comfortable and having so many bathrooms gave everyone the privacy and space they need. We enjoyed using the grill outback and watching deer frolic in the woods at night. I would highly recommend staying here!
The beautiful house is located in a community which has 2 pools, walking trails, Pickleball, basketball, bocci, putting green, gym,etc. The house was very well stocked with kitchen needs. The house has 2 grills, charcoal and propane. It has everything that we needed. The owner was very attentive and answered my texts almost immediately. All the people we met in the community were very friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay there.
We had a great experience staying at this property! It was exactly as advertised, and bonus bottle of wine upon arrival was a great touch! Also blackout curtains in every bedroom was great for the little kids sleeping!!! Would come back again!
This house was perfect for our family. Lots of space for everyone, well appointed and very clean. Great location in Bay Forest. The owner was very responsive.
This was a beautiful home and perfect for our family. The kids all had the upstairs to themselves, but we spent most of our time and the pool and the beaches. Kitchen/dining area were perfect for the family meals, although the dining room chairs are a little high for the older adults, but all in all, it was a wonderful stay! Thank you for sharing your home! Cindy
This was a beautiful property that looked exactly as advertised. It was spacious, clean and had everything we needed. We all really enjoyed the pool with the lazy river. We also enjoyed the short drive to the Ocean City boardwalk.
We chose this property for its roominess and community amenities and were not disappointed. Bay Forest was a well maintained community and the house gave us plenty of space to gather as well as plenty of privacy within our bedrooms. (We all slept till 8:00 or later nearly every morning! Unheard of with little ones!) With 3 children age 3 and under, we used both community pools and the playgrounds and headed to the beach a couple times as well. This property is within walking distance to one of the pools and a playground, and the firepit is at the end of the block! We did not use the Shuttle to the beach as we had too much stuff and babies. It's not a long drive, but be prepared for plenty of traffic! Parking near the beach is $2.50 per hour along the streets as well as in some limited space parking lots near access to the beach at some streets. Bill was a great host and helped us resolve a couple issues with quick responses. Highly recommend for a couple families to be able to spread out in 3 upstairs bedrooms and separate living area along with 2 main floor BRs.
Everything was clean and very well equipped ,with a lot of attention to what the guests needs might be. Kitchen had everything that we needed for the week and having 2 grills was amazing
