Beautiful property and great location

The property felt very large and had a ton of space. Master bedroom/TV/bathroom was huge. Living area and combined kitchen was also very large. The whole property is well decorated and designed. Getting places was simple, the ferry was a cool experience and we got right on and off both times we used it (lucky probably). Concrete pool is a good size with seating along the edges and a ramp into the shallow end with a wall (pool was my favorite part personally). Used the pool more than anything else probably. My only complaint is the check in process. They do have it in their agreement that check in could be at 5pm if guests stayed in the residence the night prior. My complaint? Everything else says that check in is at 4pm and I was never told that they needed extra time for my check in. So, our 10 family was a little concerned to not receive check-instructions until approximately 4:20pm with no prior notification that they needed us to check in late. And, whoever I was messaging (property manager likely) just wanted to argue with me about it and wanted to be right instead of acknowledging or apologizing for their lack of notification that I would have to check in after 4pm due to them not being ready on time. I consider this a small inconvenience though and wouldn't let this turn you away from this amazing property! Definitely worth the money! I believe that the only reason to spend more money somewhere else is if you need more space. Great bang for buck IMO.

My family and I take an annual trip and this property has to be so far the best location we have stayed at. From the decor, to the location, to the comfort of the beds/couches.

Perfect Family Beach Vacation

This was the perfect beach house for our family and grandkids! We had a blast spending time at the beach, which was just a short 5 minute drive and then coming back to enjoy the pool. The house was very clean, plenty of room and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back next year!

Summer vacation

Maintenance crew was on the air conditioner job for 7 hours but fixed a problem that had reported by another group. Fire alarms needed new batteries at 4 am reported around 10 and crew was on the spot. Thank you. We had a great time! Will stay again as this was #2 time to stay here.

Everything was great!

Everything was great! We did have a issue getting the pool warmed but they gave our money back for 1 day and got it going the next.. The only thing I personally had a issue with is the golf cart in the garage. Once my kids seen it, they wanted to ride it. If it’s not for rent Why have it to where we have access to it?! But overall everything was good.
