Description Description

New for 2024: New decks. Horseshoe pits removed. All queen mattresses and frames replaced.
New for 2022: This property will no longer be dog-friendly beginning in the fall of 2021.

Time for a “Care Free” vacation at the beach, don’t you think? This charming and exceptionally kept vacation destination has a beautifully landscaped pool deck area, covered patio space with a cabana-style full bath, and lovingly appointed interiors. You will spend all your time by the pool and patio grilling meals, hanging out, and enjoying the sea breezes with the kids. There is a landscaped pool deck including a shaded patio that is all fenced in plus a separate fenced yard beside the pool ! No more being cooped up inside all week!  There is an open concept mid-level great room and the kitchen has granite countertops, a dining table that seats 10 plus bar seating for 3. Add the great room dining table that seats 6 and you have room for everyone! There are decks for meals and relaxing and overlooking the pool. It’s nice not to be in a standard beach-style “reverse-floor plan” layout…top-level has bedrooms and a den with a wet bar, mini fridge, and microwave over the kitchen and great room. Most of the gathering will be on the mid-level, which is nice for bedrooms on the top level and mid-level…more quiet private spaces without the pounding of feet all night above you.

There are eight bedrooms with 5 baths, plus 2 separate washer and dryer sets. An additional full-size refrigerator is also in a storage room by the ground-level patio for easy access to drinks and snacks for the beach and pool. “Care Free” is conveniently adjacent to the public path leading to the ocean access on Sandfiddler (just a few feet south when you reach Sandfiddler Rd).

VB Family Reunion
House was exactly what we expected. The location was on a busier street than we had hoped for but access to a quieter street (for walking) and the beach was easy. We had a great time!

Family trip
This property was great to stay at and very clean! There’s a pool and it’s walking distance to the beach, market and shops. It was very spacious for the 9 of us. We’d definitely stay here again.
