The space
The house is two levels. To access the main level there are three exterior steps onto a covered porch. The main level includes the living room with a brand new recliner sectional sofa, a dining table with chairs for 8 (plus additional folding chairs if needed), a custom fully equipped kitchen, a half bath (plus a big outdoor shower with changing room), and the first of four bedrooms (the anchor room). One flight of stairs up has three additional bedrooms: one of the bedrooms has an attached bath with a stand up shower as well as a large jacuzzi soaking tub, and there is also a full bath in the hall with a shower/tub combo. Specific bedroom set up details below:
1- Anchor Room (Main level): Queen bed plus twin day bed with twin floor mattress (total sleeping for four)
2- Palm Suite (Upstairs): Queen bed plus twin day bed with twin trundle (total sleeping for four). This bedroom has an ensuite with a stand up shower, and a large soaking jacuzzi tub.
3- Whales & Tales Room (Upstairs): Can be set up as either a king bed, or two twin XL beds (total sleeping for two)
4- Starfish Room (Upstairs): Queen bed plus twin trundle (total sleeping for three)
Each bed will have sheets, a pillow and a quilt and each registered guest will be provided a bath towel. We also left several beach towels in the closet in the half bathroom. We just ask that if you use the beach towels, please wash and dry them and put them back in the closet before you check out!
Guest access
Guests will have access to the entire home except for one locked closet in the whales & takes room (there are two other closets in this room that are available for the guests to use).
Other things to note
With the house set up out of the way, let’s get to the fun stuff. We hope you feel right at home in our place and can kick off an EASY, STRESS FREE and FUN week at the shore! So let’s talk about some of the items in the house for you.
THE BASICS:
- Starter Items: We will try to leave you with enough stuff to get ya started. Cleaning spray, a dish sponge, dishwasher tabs, garbage bags and an extra roll of paper towels are under the kitchen sink. There will be some dish liquid by the kitchen sink and the slop sink in the utility room, and hand soap by the other sinks. And we will ensure there is a roll or two of toilet paper in each bathroom. We certainly hope you have what you need to get started before you hit a store. We can also share a list of nearby grocery store options if you need!
- Bed Linens: Sheets and quilts are provided for all beds. At the foot of each queen sized bed, is a quilt for the twin size trundle bed in that room and each room has a pillow for each sleeping spot.
- Bath Towels: We will leave out one bath towel for each registered guest!
- Smart TVs & WIFI: The house has wifi, and there are five brand new smart TVs in the house (one in each bedroom and one in the living room). Feel free to login to your streaming services on any tv but please log yourself out before you leave-
- Beach Badges: At check in you will find a glass jar in the center of the dining room table which has a lanyard with 8 adult beach badges (kids under 13 do not require a badge) --- We think it’s better to keep the badges together than separate the badges and potentially lose some. The badge checkers are reasonable at the beach so as long as someone has them there, you should be okay! We do have to remind you though, it’s a “you lose you buy” situation, so make the most responsible person in your group take charge and have a blast :)
- Beach Towels: There is a closet within the half bathroom that will have a stack of beach towels that you can use! And in the back of the house there is a laundry line to dry them when you come back from the beach. We ask if you use any beach towels please wash and dry them and put them back in the half bath closet before you check out!
- Beach Chairs: There will be 6 adult beach chairs in the utility closet off the back of the kitchen, feel free to use them but just make sure you put them back at the end of your stay!
- Beach Cart: There is a red foldable radio flyer wagon which you can feel free to use! It is also located in the utility closet off the back of the kitchen.
- Coolers: There are a couple of coolers in the utility closet off the back of the kitchen!
- Washer/Dryer: There is a closet in the kitchen area that has a washer dryer for you to use.
- Games: We know, rainy days can be a bummer, and cranky kids can put a damper on the day. So the entry coat closet has tons of games and activities to keep everyone busy! Just try to put the pieces back in each box.
- Kitchen: Our goal is to make sure you have what ya need to slay Sunday sauce, grill up a feast, or just be sure you can quickly make pasta when the kiddies are hungry. We consider our kitchen fully stocked, but here is a list of some items (certainly not all) to give you a better sense of what you will find: stainless steel pots, PFOA free non-stick pans, Gevalia drip coffee pot (with filters), Keurig coffee machine, hand mixer, blender, grill utensils (cabinet above the stove), glass storage containers, serving bowls and boards, cutting boards, etc. Some of the smaller appliances are in the cabinets on the back side of the kitchen, along with plenty of empty space for your snacks and pantry stuff.
- BBQ: there is a large weber grill with a natural gas line. That means no need for propane. All you need to do is open and close the gas valve after every use!
- First Aid: We don’t want to jinx it, but we know things happen… so hopefully not… but if you need anything in the closet in the half bathroom there is a red first aid box which should have a bit of everything to turn that frown upside down
- Sewing Kit: We genuinely don’t want anything to derail your fun, so if your partner ate too much, split his/her shorts just head to the closet in the half bathroom for all your sewing needs :)
- Pets: We will allow up to two dogs per stay (unfortunately no other pets will be accepted due to allergies in our family), but will require an additional pet fee. That said, we do NOT allow pups on the furniture, and we ask that you crate them when you are not in the house. There is a spare 30” folding crate in the utility closet off the back of the kitchen which you can feel free to use.
