The best family weekend!
We absolutely loved staying here. My husband and I brought our 10-year-old for a little family getaway. The house was exactly as described- really lovely. Having a fully stocked kitchen and deck to sit out on in the evenings made it so easy. Our favorite part was cruising around the neighborhood in the golf cart, and taking it to the beach and basketball court. The owners were lovely and super responsive. We hope to be back again!

Beach Vacation
Audrey and Steve were lovely hosts. They were quick to communicate when we had questions. The house itself was neat and tidy, with nice sized bedrooms, common area, and yard for the dog. We traveled with our little ones which the house wasn’t really equipped for. The space is better for kids 7+ who can use regular dishes, glasses, etc. The only sticky spot was the private beach. There really wasn’t much sand and even though we had water shoes, the size of the rocks was too tough for our kids to navigate. We ended up at Walnut Beach multiple days which was much sandier and easier for the kids. Overall, we’d recommend this home for adults or families with older children.

Fun weekend at Point Beach!
The property is very clean and has what you need to relax and go to the beach. The golf cart was fun and the back deck was cozy with friends and family! Close to adorable Milford green with shops and restaurants! Just what we needed for our weekend away!

Awesome Hidden Getaway
I cannot over emphasize how awesome this place was! The house was clean and had plenty of room. The beach is literally a few blocks away and there’s water access probably a few hundred feet away. It was awesome that it was dog friendly because we were able to let the dogs swim. The backyard was also awesome for sitting out for meals, playing games, and sitting around the fire. The neighborhood was nice and friendly, even made friends with the neighbors. We also had fun zipping around the neighborhood on the golf cart. Audrey was very responsive and helpful. Couldn’t say enough great things!
