Summary: This house is truly amazing - so much history! We felt immediately at home, and the location couldn't better. It was easy to walk to and from the beach, and the neighborhood is great - quiet and friendly. Margy & Burt made sure we were all set each step of the way, and made the rental process seamless. We can't wait to go back!

Summary: The Bait Can is a hidden gem. It's located in a quiet neighborhood just a minutes walk to the beach. The house itself has historic charm - beautiful old hardwood floors, nicely decorated - you can tell that generations of family and friends have enjoyed it. The enclosed side porch is bright and warm with the afternoon sun, and the front deck is nice anytime. When we arrived it was hot and humid and the recently added living room ceiling fan made it comfortable, and a few days later it got much cooler especially in the morning and the recently added gas fireplace made it warm. Very nice place with historic charm. Highly recommend.

Summary: My family and I had an incredible week staying at the Bait Can. From the moment we booked, the host was very responsive and sent a welcome packet. The house was great and can’t beat the location. They had toys, beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers and everything needed for a beach vacation. Will definitely be back and highly recommend

Summary: This classic cottage has all the spaces that are important for a family group to enjoy themselves. Great porch, dining areas, big kitchen, lawn for outdoor games and lots of bedrooms. Doesn’t hurt to be 4 minutes walk from a perfect little beach. We loved it

Summary: The Bait Can is reminiscent of places my kids stayed when they were kids. It has all the amenities a family could need. Everything we needed was there - so we were able to stay in the home and enjoy the Mother's Beach. My only recommendation is for a few A/C units upstairs as it was difficult for kids to nap when the temp is over 80.
