Wonderful Property
We came with a big extended family group in order to have a memorial for my grandma. The house was very clean, beds were comfortable and the AC worked well! The kitchen was stocked with things to make cooking at the house a breeze. It is a short walk to a very nice beach and close to a atore with all your needs. It’s located on the more quiet part of town, we enjoyed it! We highly recommend and will hopefully return for a longer trip!

Family getaway
Loved our stay at the Mellow Yellow Beach House! Walking bridge over the dunes was nice but would have loved vehicle access. The house was beautiful just like the pictures. Lots of dinning space, showers, and little extras that we enjoyed. Brandy’s blanket was a big hit among all the girls! Plenty of patio room with lots of seating for those quiet mornings with coffee or moon gazing at night. Loved the safety gate at the top of the stairs, the booster seat, and pack and play for our youngest granddaughter. Pirate ship bunkbed was a hit for our grandsons. Something for everyone. This place was perfect. Oh, and the ducks and turtles were entertaining in the inlet. Thank you so much for the hospitality! You’re home is beautiful!

Family Vacay
Our group consisted of 8 adults, a 3 year old and an infant. We have stayed at a different home the last 3 years, but with the addition of the new baby, we had outgrown our former home away from home and had to find a new place. The house was better than advertised. Nice large dining table for everyone to eat together, kid friendly, nice large pantry to store a week's worth of food, short walk to beach, responsive owner/manager, comfy beds, quiet neighborhood, and the list goes on. If you're looking for it, this place has it!

Family getaway
We needed some good ole fun family time and found the perfect place!!! The house was spacious, clean and plenty of bedrooms for all the family! The outdoor spaces provided plenty of seating for eating and relaxing. The views were so pretty and the beach was very clean! There was one little hiccup and that was that it was a little warm in the living area and bedrooms at night. But when we left the a/c people were there to check it out. We were all very disappointed that we didn’t book the cabin longer!!!! We will definitely be back!!!!

Much needed relaxation
Everything you need is there. Linens , beach towels , beach chairs , 2 minute golf cart ride to beach , see the beach every morning when you wake up. No beach noise( other people) from your deck, just the sound of the waves. No need to take anything besides drinks to beach. Just go back home and eat then back to beach. Outdoor shower was wonderful! We all used it , instead of the indoor showers on beach days. You will not regret renting this property!

Beautiful home
The home is just a short walk to the beach and had a wonderful pond out front for fishing! The owner really thought of everything inside the home, full size hair/body soaps in each bathroom, large number of towels, hair dryers in each! The kitchen was stocked with almost any utensil you would need and had a small stock of snacks, coffee filters, creamers and spices. King beds in all the rooms except the bunk room made it great for couples. The home was beautifully decorated. We will most certainly be back!

Retreat at Mellow Yellow
Mellow Yellow was the perfect property for our retreat for our group of twelve. The home is well maintained and exceptionally clean. Had we not looked outside, we would never have thought it might be a beach house - no visible wear, no ocean smells . . . The owner was very responsive and easy to work with and our entire party was very happy with the property. You should definitely consider booking Mellow Yellow.
