The location is GREAT!! We absolutely loved the proximity to both the bay and the beach! Got to watch dolphins swim one morning on the bay side, that was a treat! And there was hardly anyone at the beach, so we practically had it to ourselves! The house overall was pretty accommodating, loved all the decks! But there were some basic functions, like doors not closing, bed sheets not available, lack of towel racks in the bathrooms, water pressure, etc that put a damper on the stay. If these things could be fixed, it would be an amazing stay!

Emerald Sunset was a great house with a great location for beautiful sunsets and beach access. The organization of the kitchen was poor but functional. We also ran completely out of toilet paper. Comfortable sleeping a accommodations. .

This house was exactly what we needed. Just enough rooms for all the adults and we were able to sleep all the kids on the top floor. It’s far enough into Caplen that we could avoid the zoo but close enough that a trip to the big store was still a quick shot. The huge yard was also great considering how close houses are to each other in CB now. We will be coming back soon!

This is a perfect location for a peaceful getaway. The view is amazing from every floor in the house and the porch swings was very nice touch. Just make sure you bring a few young people with you, the kitchen is on the top floor, so you have 3 flights of stairs to tore groceries! Definitely will book again!

Fabulous Vacation Home!
Fabulous Vacation Home!
This is our family’s go-to summer vacation beach getaway. This year we were so surprised at ALL the upgrades! The outdoor bars, swings on patio, outdoor TV’s. The whole house received a makeover with the fresh paint job, new oven and so much more. We slept 5 families with their babies comfortably. The sunsets on the porch are always so beautiful. The beach right across the street is perfect! I love the location as the beaches are not crowded and the restaurants and grocery stores are a short drive up the road. Definitely try Stingaree Restaurant! We already can’t wait to go back!!
