Good place to stay

Enjoyed our stay. Gated community is great and the pool with sound side beach/play area was very nice. Nice friendly neighbor. Only complaint I had was the height of the grass.

Manager's Response

Patti, Delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay in our little slice of paradise! Glad the gated community, pool, and friendly neighbors made up for any unexpected grass hurdles.

Perfect Family Getaway

We loved our stay at Sound Waves! It was perfect for our multi-generational family getaway. There was plenty of space (and sleeping accommodations) for us all to gather in one house and enjoy our time together. The house was set-up with plenty of extras to make us feel comfortable—from the stocked board game cabinet and Wii system, to the outdoor games and water activities, to the kitchen supplies that allowed us to cook meals together, to the baby gate that made it easy to keep our toddler safe. We also appreciated having a vacuum cleaner on-site for us to clean-up those unavoidable toddler messes :-)
The location was perfect for us! It was a quick trip into town for all of the major attractions and shopping. However, the private sound-side beach made it possible for us to easily enjoy beach time at a moment’s notice. This was particularly helpful to us since we, unfortunately, ended up having a lot of stormy weather for the week of our stay. The ocean-side beaches had dangerous riptide warnings for much of the week, and it was hard to predict when the storms would break and sunshine would peek through. Being at Sound Waves meant that we had plenty of indoor entertainment together, as well as covered, weatherproof outdoor spaces. Then, when the weather would break, we could easily grab our supplies and head over to the Colington sound-side beach. We were able to spend time at the water swimming and building sandcastles every day of our vacation. I honestly don’t think that would have been the case if we’d stayed somewhere else. We all enjoyed our trip immensely!

Manager's Response

Cortney, Sounds like your stay at Sound Waves hit all the right notes! From stormy weather to sunny beach days, it seems like your family vacation was a symphony of fun. We're thrilled you enjoyed the stocked board games, Wii acrobatics, and even conquered the toddler messes with the on-site vacuum cleaner. Thanks for tuning into the Sound Waves experience and making waves of memories with us! #WaveReview"

So much fun at your back door!

Our family of ten had a blast at this idyllic location. The teens and tweens spent almost every moment on the water in kayaks. Although the paddle boat and one kayak were not in great condition, the remaining crafts were outstanding. The arcade was great, but the Wii was sadly broken. Beware that although the house description says it accommodates ten, the dining room seating barely fits eight or nine (and we are slender people). Eight sleeping spots are in bedrooms; one is the living room couch. But the beds are excellent, and everyone sleeping in a bedroom got terrific sleep. If you are flexible in making things work, this is an awesome location for the money and a delightful house!

Manager's Response

Elizabeth, Thank you for the glowing review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your group enjoyed your stay at Wayfarer's Rest. It's wonderful to know that the spacious accommodations, proximity to the beach, and private pool added to your overall satisfaction. We appreciate your kind words and look forward to hosting you again in the future!

Family Christmas

Our family had the best Christmas experience at Sound Waves. We’ve never been away for Christmas so imagine our surprise to see a Christmas tree fully decorated , a lovely gift basket with holiday goodies and other warm holiday touches in the great room! We all felt so welcomed . The home has everything a family needs , from a well stocked kitchen, board games , beautiful fireplace not to mention all the outdoor games .. tiki bar and a black stone grill! It was all the personal touches that made this rental feel like home , all you need to add is family ! Last but not least we enjoyed the sunsets from the outside deck .

All of the amenities we could need

The house was beautiful, with seemingly every amenity we could want. Clean, well equipped, and updated. The location affords you some privacy, as does the setup of the decks and patio. The location was a little inconvenient, with Colington Harbour being 10-15 minutes from Routes 12 and 158. The lighting in the bedrooms was strangely dim, though it's possible that I missed something.

The house was in a great location with an amazing amount of extra entertainment options including kayaks, paddleboats, fishing equipment, corn hole, ping pong and if you want to stay inside then there were games and a popcorn machine for movie night.

Love this house

My husband, myself and our two small dogs, stayed in this house the last week of April 2022. We loved this house!! The way is was laid out, the decorations, the amenities all were so nice! We didn't utilize all of the rooms but definitely could've comfortably fit two small families or one large family easily. The kids room was so cute with the boat beds and the arcade machine. This room also had a Wii gaming system with lots of add on accessories. The view from the back balconies were beautiful! The upstairs living area had decent amount of space and the owners definitely make it fun to hang out at home. They have led lights in the kitchen and lamps and also had a really nice stereo/speaker sound system. The master bedroom was super comfortable too. The ceiling fans were huge and very unique, loved them! We also really appreciated the fact that they had nice quality room darkening curtains in the main living area and bedrooms. Made the nights very comfortable and was able to sleep in without the sun waking us up. Lots of forms of entertainment in the basement too. From corn hole, to kayaks, bikes, yard games to a popcorn machine. There is a full sized refrigerator down here as well. There is also a really cute outside bar area with a mini fridge, great lighting and an option for curtains for privacy or to block out the weather. The house is in a gated community which was nice. It felt like a real home versus just a rental. We didn't spend any time at the community beach this time but we did utilize the dog park which is right beside the community beach and watched amazing sunsets. This dog park beach and pool were a short walk from this house. Over all loved this house, the location and the amenities. The only downside we had was we couldn't get the outside fire pit to work but that could've been user error. Otherwise couldn't complain about a thing. Would definitely stay here again!!

A Nice Home Away From Home

Loved all of the extras our house came with such as the ping pong table, cornhole boards, beach chairs, tiki bar, etc. Our house was very well cleaned inside upon arrival. Loved our location and view. Maybe the exterior of the home needs a good wash down.

Great Vacation House

The house is very well-suited for a large family. Plenty of room to spread out and lots great outdoor space. The kitchen is VERY well equipped with good quality pots, pans & knives (things that usually are not so good in rentals). We did not seem to have access to the corn-hole set or some of the other outdoor toys that were described but that ended up being okay since it rained a few days and we had brought our boat along as well. For anyone who wants to bring a small ski boat or other power boat, there really is not enough room to dock on this home's property completely. We asked the renters next door and our boat was about 6 ft. on the sea wall in front of that home as well. Didn't seem to be a problem and it wasn't blocking anyone's access to the canal. We were able to get off of the boat onto our rental so we didn't need to walk on anyone else's yard. The canal is deep enough for an I/O motor on an 18 1/2 ft. Sea Ray and the launch is very convenient to the home. The home was pretty clean but we did find things like a bowl with a spoon under a chair and someone's sock under a bed :-). We did notice ants - a lot of them -- toward the end of our stay and we had not left any food out or anything so no idea where they came from. We notified the rental mgmt. company. All in all, this is a great home for the price and I would definitely recommend it.

Thank you for your review. We're thrilled to hear that you were pleased with the home and enjoyed your vacation! We hope to welcome you back to the beach very soon!

Well-equipped home

This home has everything we needed for a relaxing getaway with our kids and grandkids. We were happy to have kayaks, Keurig coffee maker, a Portacrib and baby gate! Getting to the public access beach was a breeze (about a 6 minute drive straight out Colington Road to the main Lifeguard station access!)

This home is incredible! Not only is the house beautiful but it has just about ever amenity you could possibly want! There are kayaks, a paddle board, life jackets and boogie boards. Want games? There's a ping pong table, horseshoes, croquet, out door bowling and others. What about if it rains? There's a popcorn machine, blender, ice cream machine, game room with tons of video games and karaoke. It's obvious that the owners of this home want their guests to enjoy themselves because they have provided just about everything for that to happen. We cannot wait to stay here again!
