Always a great time at the YOLO house!
Its now been a 6 year tradition to stay at the YOLO house for a fall beach weekend with friends and family. We always enjoy our stay. We all have our own space and bathroom and everything we need in the kitchen. Nancy is always responsive if we need anything. The guys can fish right in front of the house and its just a short walk to the beach. Cant wait for next year!

Great front row view
We have rented this house several times and keep coming back because the host is responsive and the house is a great layout for sharing (4 beds and bathrooms) , plus the location right on the beach can’t be beat. We also love the covered porch and the porch swing. Looking forward to booking for next summer.

Overall nice stay
The location was great with a boardwalk right at the property. Beach was full of seaweed but didn’t bother the kids. The house was well laid out and comfortable for a party of 10. The was clean however we weren’t able to use the grill for our steaks because the grill was really filthy. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies except for steak knives, there were only a few. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay.

Wow! This is a beautiful, clean home with a well-stocked kitchen. It is a great peaceful location that was perfect for our family gathering. It is just as described, with everything you need for a great beach vacation. We had relatives traveling from different locations and this place was just right for the family and kids we had. The owner responded quickly to our messages and was very helpful.

Girls trip
The four of us go to the beach every year. Rented the YOLO house and we’re wonderfully surprised at how clean and up to date the house is. It’s a great floor plan layout for the four of us and the open kitchen/dining/living room was so much fun for all of us to be together while we were all doing our own thing. The swing bed! FABULOUS! We will definitely be wanting to rent again.
