Great place

The house was a totally different color than what is advertised. Im sure it is cookie cutter house to the others. It was still very nice. We enjoyed it. Close to beach. Walking distance

Fabulous stay

The house was great for our family. Very well laid out. The house was clean and well appointed. The beds were comfortable. Owners thought of all our needs and provided several items we were prepared to bring ourselves. Kitchen was well stocked for meal preparation and service. Loved it’s location to both the pool and the beach. Management was responsive when we called. One of our best stays ever. We will definitely stay here again when visiting Port A!

Labor Day Weekend

Even though it rained, my family and I really enjoyed our stay at this beach house. We loved the fact that every room has its own restroom and the living area was big enough for all of us.

Thanksgiving 2021.

AC wasn’t working when we arrived. Contacted the property manager and it was fixed quickly. Had 6 adults and 4 kids and plenty of room. Hosted Thanksgiving for our family and fed a total of 14 adults and 5 kids and had plenty of room. Parking was great. Plenty of room for 3 cars.

Nice but not much in kitchen

Very nice and clean house. If you do plan to stay here make sure you bring some dishes or anything you might need because it is very limited. Also Ac kept going out due to the breaker but we had to be messing with it every few hours. That’s a minus ! 😠

Wonderful

We had a great time, plenty of room for everyone in our party. Each room had its own bathroom with shower. The house was perfect! Easy walk to the beach and convenience stores nearby. We enjoyed every bit of it!

Roaches!

I really want to give this property 5 stars all the way around. We have been going to Port A for 34 years now and outgrew the property we used to stay at. We've stayed at several vrbo properties, and this one checks all the boxes and is perfect for our family except for the roaches. I saw a communication several months ago about roaches and I felt that surely that problem had been taken care of, but alas, it has not. When I saw the first one, it was late on a Friday night, so I sent a notice via their online communication. I expected to hear something Saturday but did not. Nor on Sunday, or Monday... I am still waiting to hear back from the property manager. I really hope they get the roaches taken care of - other than that, this was a fantastic property.

Good for group of 8

Had a group of 8 adults and 1 toddler and had plenty of room in common areas/kitchen for all at same time. Didn’t even have to childproof the place! Beds were extra comfortable. Kitchen well stocked. We would definitely go back and stay here again. Only downside was TV s in all bedrooms wouldn’t work.
