The most pleasant experience!
The property is exactly how you see it in the pictures, it is exceptionally clean and well kept. We came here to celebrate getting married and the host was thoughtful enough to write a special note for us. It was spacious, private, and had beautiful views- I highly recommend this property. We would love to stay here again!- Julia and Kristian

Birthday Weekend
Our stay at Sunset Sound was spectacular! It is a beautiful home with breathtaking back porch views overlooking the water. We enjoyed watching the sunset over the marsh both evenings. It is just a quick walk to the beach where we enjoyed the best beach days. The house is decorated in a classic beach style and equipped with the most comfortable furniture. All of our guests commented on how nice the mattresses slept. The loveseat also pulls out into a bed. The kitchen had everything necessary to cook all our meals. All in all, Sunset Sound was the perfect spot for our birthday getaway.
Perfect beach house with even more perfect views!! Newly renovate, very clean, and cozy. Spacious den with room for all to hang out and very comfortable beds. Kitchen is very functional along with the bathrooms. The outside has so much to offer with the vast entertaining space under the house, plenty of parking, and my favorite an outdoor shower. Would definitely recommend and look forward to renting again.
