Property is the best of both worlds. It is fairly remote with plenty of wildlife to see, deer, toads and of corse birds and ocean creatures, but also close enough to plenty of restaurants, bars, stores and historical sites. The house is quite nice and on a dead end road, which provided my family with a great place the enjoy the last stop on our vacation, relax and play cards together by the waters edge. I would recommend carefully watching any kids that want to go for a swim, as this is essentially the ocean without lifeguards. Not that we had any issues, and nothing stopped us from taking a dip.
We had a lovely stay at the Sunshine Beach Cottage - it was just as we expected and easy to check in and out. We look forward to the next time we can stay!
Everything was as advertised. Clean and tidy. Easy to find. Had everything we needed while visiting some state parks. Kids loved the beach and already asked to go back
We take our dog away yearly to a location with water where she can swim. We have stayed at many vrbo and house rental locations. This was by far my favorite. The house is a hidden gem and a very special place. Not only did our dog love swimming daily but we also enjoyed the relaxing atmosphere, quiet surroundings, and beautiful beach front steps from the door. Would highly recommend for anyone who wants a peaceful stay and a place to recharge hope we make our way back one day!
If you want to relax by the water and getaway from the hustle and bustle, this is the place. The cottage is updated and cozy with amazing views. Just step off the patio onto the sand. Cottage was stocked with essentials and extra goodies to make it feel like home.
This was our third trip to the little yellow house! We absolutely love and adore our time here. This time we used the fire pit and it was a great addition!
The kids love being right on the water and we love it too. Canât wait to go back! PS, you must check out St Inieâs in Scotland, such a gem!
The Bay is beautiful, and to enjoy it from this property all you have to do is open the door and step onto the porch. That puts you within 20 feet or so of the water's edge. The chaises can be brought onto the sand for an ideal beach day in the sun. The house is squeezed in tightly between two others, but there are only two properties to the south and then several hundred yards of open beach; so there's room to spread out if that's important. The house has everything you could need or want and was very clean and well-appointed. Appliances are up to date and the decorations are tasteful. This was ideal for my wife and me and would also be for a family with little ones. The neighborhood is very remote with perhaps 10 properties along the road that parallels the beach. Everything else is just woods and farmland till you get to the main roads.
Very cute beach house literally on the water! Great place. Well equipped. Easy drive from the DC area. This is the perfect place if you want to get away from it all and relax to the sound of waves on the beach all day! Loved the fire pit that could up of be used in the tree area or on the beach. There isnât a lot around so make sure you bring your own stuff to make meals and snacks.
If you are looking for a beautiful view right from your front door, this place is the place. My husband called the moon rising magical!! We came with our shihtzu and he just loved the freedom of having our very own beach!
Our family spent a wonderful week right on the beach and can't wait to go back! The cottage is basic, but totally sufficient for o week spent mostly outside and was very comfortable in the evenings. The location--right on the beach--was unbeatable.
I just needed a short getaway time, and when a friend who had just stayed there recommended Sunshine Beach, I thought Iâd take a look. It was perfectâŠjust the right size for me, and less than 20â from the waterâs edge! Everything about it was perfect! From Long Beach walks in the morning, to watching the sun go down in the evening, all was so relaxing! A storm rolled in my last day there, and that was so awesome to watch as well!
We were a group of 7, 3 adults and 4 kids ranging from 9 months to 11 years old. I feel like overall the trip was exactly what I hoped it would be! Fun on the beach with the kids! We loved the direct access to the sand and water from the back porch. We had great beach neighbors some who were VRBO guests and some who were property owners. A suggestion to the owners would be to have a disclaimer on the listing (we found out the neighbors house did), that July-August is high chance of Jellyfish activity, book at your own discretion, I would have likely booked still, but I could have at least been prepared with jellyfish remedies for the stings that the kids did get. Having the kayaks were a big component to our fun. I highly recommend kayaking the crabbing creek down to the right of the beach. It has been very hot/dry this summer so the crabbing creek did not have fresh water access to the Bay, providing no current. There was an awful stench to it and many dead fish floating. But the crabs were still abundant and still really fun and entertaining to catch and release. The beds are really comfortable. The dining set is not best for our small age kiddos for eating so that made it a smide difficult at meal times. Additionally there was a pretty big fly and gnat problem the whole time. Despite all efforts to keep all food put away and the dishes immediately washed, and doors quickly closed. All in all, the place is cute, a little beach bungalow, serves the purpose! We are happy!

We are planning for next year.
It was very enjoyable and relaxing.
Spent 7 nights and the guest bedroom has no place for Clothes. No dresser, Not a deal breaker just a needed nicety.
This is our 3rd year staying here! Love the proximity to the water!!! The house looks as advertised and the bathroom was re-done since our last visit!! We love coming and relaxing!
My son and I truly enjoyed our mini vacation for spring break at your home. It was the perfect getaway of solitude to clear my mind and fun for him near the water. Your home is beautiful. The location is out of this world stunning. We canât wait to come back!
We absolutely LOVED this place! We were vacationing with our two toddlers (ages 2&3) and my sisters family with her two toddlers (1&3) and this place was absolutely PERFECT! We could all still enjoy the beach while our kids were napping because everything was right there! No one had to haul anything to the beach, they had all the sand toys you could want, and more! One step off the porch and youâre in the sand! Loved it! And so did all the kids and adults!! Will definitely be staying again!!
My family and are were coming to the area in order to visit my cousin who is in the navy. We were originally going to stay in a hotel near his home but the options were limited so I expanded ny search and Im so happy I did! Instead of staying in a basic hotel we were able to stay in the beach front cottage. Its actually felt like a vacation instead of just a visit. We had a ton of fun in the water. Definitely recommend!!
