Beachy Home, 1/2 Block From Beach & Boards!
Location, Location!! Location is key here! Two blocks from the Crest (quiet side of the island) yet right at the start of the boardwalk! We know you're coming to WILDWOOD @ THE JERSEY SHORE for the beach and boards! Location is our biggest compliment:-). Relaxed and beachy. Take the Tram car to all the action, just steps away! Best described as 'Flip-flops & T-shirt living'. We're not 'frills', just FUN!! If you're looking for a beachy single family home, you've found it here. This beach house is on the beach block and Sleeps 12 with three complimentary tandem parking spots. Relaxing comfortable home w/ 3rd floor great room (12X24), leading out to the deck overlooking the Atlantic. Spacious 2nd floor living room and dining room. Enough seating for the whole family to sit down to dinner at once. Enjoy all the amenities of home. Ceiling fans in every room, pushing around the cool central air. We are not a considered a hotel or Bed and Breakfast, so some things to consider is that we do not provide sheets, pillow cases, towels or disposables/consumables (unless requested for an additional fee). We do provide pillows, blankets and mattress covers. Three blocks from the convention center, two blocks from the crest and a 1/2 block to the boardwalk. We're on the quiet side of the island (2 blocks from the crest) yet right where the boards start, just blocks from the water parks and boardwalk attractions. Come sit under our palm trees and sip your favorite ice cold beverage. Watch all the tourists covered in oil treking by (because you got the one closer to the beach!) Check out our 3rd Floor Great Room with awesome views of the Ocean! And speaking of awesome views, you'll sit on the 2nd & 3rd floor decks and just soak in the sights of the Atlantic! Give us a call, you'll be glad you did. [under new management] You should know that this is a Non-smoking house inside and out anywhere on the property. Please head to the sidewalk to smoke.

Great location but poorly updated, lacking basics
You know when a person calls a house “quaint or charming” they mean small. The description of this house says it’s a no-frills laid back property but what that means is overall it lacks basic features and misleading amenities.
The check in process was easy and on site manager Lori was very responsive. However, the house did not match the listing from when we booked it and the overall condition of the interior is poor. When we booked the listing stated “on site coin operated laundry behind the house to the right”. Upon arrival it was not present and we were told there was a laundromat a few blocks away. The listing stated a hot tub, not present. The listing includes a full kitchen but check in documents then explain it’s a “resort inspired” kitchenette aka no oven, no dishwasher. Other issues: used vape pods under the bed, exposed electrical sockets, no electricity in the upstairs hall bathroom. If the house was cleaned and checked prior to arrival they would have known there was no electricity. There are also undisclosed security cameras (Vrbo policy says they have to be stated), which are good for the cars but one points at the first deck and is remotely accessible (as opposed to closed circuit) so we felt uncomfortable sitting out there with children not knowing if we were being watched and how the footage is stored. Overall the location is nice but the house itself is lacking and we felt misled and over charged.

Perfect
Very happy with this rental. It was clean and large enough for my extended family. Perfect location with 3 parking spots. We’re glad it was the off season because there was plenty of street parking available as well. At first the air was set to 78, but after informing them to how warm it was they adjusted it to make us very comfortable. The kitchen provided all the amenities that we needed. We would definitely stay here again.

Great space and location!
Skip and Kim we're easy to work with, entry was a breeze and the location was one block from the beach and famous Wildwoods sign. It was a ten minture walk to the Mudhen brewery and a two minute walk to Duffer's too! This place is definitely, no frills when it came to the decor. The lack of oven was hard to get used to when planning our meals for a legend group but they have a full stove and toaster oven.

Dissapponting, dirty, not as described, waste of money
The property location was great but that was the only positive part of this rental. The property had a broken slider door to the balcony on the top floor that did not close all the way. There was an ant infestation in the kitchen and main living area. There was no oven even though the pictures showed one. The owner expressed that it was an odd request to need an oven and sent us a turkey roaster. The pantry was full of food items from the previous renters and the floor was sticky and sandy throughout the entire unit. The owner sent out a family member to clean the floors. It was impossible to get sleep in either of the bedrooms on the first floor as the mattresses were like sleeping on a brick and were extremely noisy. Saying this was an unpleasant stay is putting it nicely. Overall cleanliness and quality of the unit was a 1 out of 10. I would not recommend spending your hard earned money to "vacation" here as it was anything but. We requested a partial refund so that we would feel we paid what the rental was worth but the owner denied this request and exclaimed that they stand by their service.

Perfect Location, Lots of Room, Great for large families
We had a fairly large crew of adults and kids. This house was perfect!
1st things 1st..The Location!!!!
The location of this property is excellent. Not only do you have a short distance to the beach, you're surrounded by restaurants, mini-golf, the boardwalk, ice cream shops, etc. The walk to the beach is a breeze, especially when your lugging coolers, umbrellas, chairs, and toys. It also seemed like this was a fairly "quiet" location on the beach. It wasn't crowded at all, which at this time of year seems to always be an issue.
The house....
Ok, so with a large family, the last thing you want to feel like on vacation is that your cramped for space or privacy. There was none of that here. The upstairs family room provided a perfect location for the kids to watch tv and play. They loved it. Also, in the mornings, the outside balcony on the top floor was the perfect location for your morning coffee.
The bedrooms were a good size and provided privacy when you needed it. The 3 bathrooms were clutch. The kitchen had just about everything we needed for meals...although, they were running low on forks.
We grilled out in the driveway while the kids played cornhole.
All in all, we had a great trip and this house was a big part of it. My family has rented a house each year down in Wildwood and I can honestly say I will be contacting Skip again for next year.

Very unsatisfactory stay
The floors were dirty, we had to instruct the children not to walk barefoot. The kitchen was poorly equipped, there was no baking sheet (had to buy one). One non stick pan that was there was so scratched that it was useless. There were not enough spoons and forks. There were not enough comforters. The house has 5 bedrooms with 6 beds and only 5 comforters, 6th was a throw! The sofa had a smell to it. The money we paid for this property was just not worth it. The description of the house says 'no frills'. And we were not expecting any, but one does expect cleanliness a given. I am giving it a 2 star for the location. That was the only good thing.

Stay was not what was expected
I arrived at my check in time with many concerns as follows:
- house was sticky, refrigerator was dirty, stove was dirty (cleaning crew said they never clean), dishwasher full of dishes but tenants are required to clean them out and the previous one never cleaned them out, house was covered with ants apparently from jello shots that were all over the house from the previous tenant, microwave dirty, water bottles behind beds, stains on carpet, garbage area smelled horrible and was overloaded upon arrival, vents for a/c were jammed close and we had to force them open, shower spouts were very dirty
- many items were damaged in the house: ceiling fan had a hole in the glass fixture, blinds were broken, sliding glass door broken, holes periodically throughout the house
- water pressure was terrible, could not shower many at a time and if the toilet is flushed the showers would stop working, there is no hot water just luke warm
- deck areas smelled horrible and we're not maintained well at all, railings were not safe for anyone to lean on (especially by front door)
We left the house in better condition than we received it. A thorough cleaning is needed on this property.
In conclusion, this is not a family rental but more so for college kids who are partying!
