Vacation

The location was beautiful, with excellent sunset views and a private dock. If it had been just me and the boys fishing it would have been excellent. This was a fishing and sight seeing trip with my wife. She didn't feel secure with no locks to the back doors only a bar for the patio door. The drains for the sink and shower were slow and the layout was weird with having to go through one bedroom to get to the other.

Great for the price

For the price, it was a great stay. Plenty of space and a nice living room, kitchen setup.House smells a little musty, I think it’s coming from the porch. I would suggest the property management schedule a deep spring cleaning.

Family reunion

This was the 5th time we have stayed at this rental so we knew what to expect. Unfortunately it was far off from what we are use to. It was not clean, there were spiders and rodents, the maintenance crew had to come out because we had multiple issues. We will not be staying here again.

Home

This is Gerald Randles. A couple of issues with our VRBO rental. New light bulbs are needed in the two bedroom lamps because we had to use them to replace the bulbs in the master bedroom ceiling. The grill needs to be cleaned; it's unusable in the current condition. Replace microwave surface/night light. The sink in the hall bathroom drains very slowly. A fish cleaning station would be nice.

Nice little home for the money

For the money, the house is a good value. It is not nearly as nice as others we have rented in the area, but it was about half the price. The bedroom setup is a bit funky, but workable. I would not rent this house with if you have more than 4 people - 1 bathroom makes it difficult. If I am going to nitpick, the house should have a simple toaster a tea kettle and a full size frying pan....like I said,overall the home was a good value, but these simple additions would have made our stay better.

Long weekend

The house was perfect for my husband and I. Great sunsets from the porch or dock. Everything was spotless. Communication was always quick and helpful. We will definitely book again, really enjoyed the location and home. The only thing a little odd is you have to walk through one bedroom to get to the other 3rd bedroom. Not a problem for us but others might be uncomfortable with this.

Great Family Getaway

We gathered our teenagers, my mom, sister, and uncle & aunt to spend a few days together. We rented a pontoon and a jet ski. We kayaked and paddle boarded to a little island. The house was roomy and comfortable with everything we needed. The owner was very responsive and helpful. We will definitely be back!
