Very good house

This is a very good house that has the potential to be a really great house. Between the listing & reviews I felt like I was well informed & expectations were met. The owner had excellent communication, location is right on the bay side, great fishing off the dock, clean house, mostly updated inside. Beautiful kitchen & bathroom cabinets. Both heat & ac worked well. The house could use some minor repairs, a deep cleaning, updated bedding, along with indoor and outdoor furniture. Honestly it would be an amazing improvement. Regardless of my preferences, we really enjoyed everything!

VACA AT DI

This is our second year to stay at this same place. Location is amazing! However, the kitchen is lacking on being stocked. There are several areas from last year that needed repair, like walls that had been patched but never painted. From the VRBO pics we were planning on using the boat lift and were told just a few days before that they did not work and we’re not included it the rental. We used one last year. Just really disappointed this year.

We will be staying here again

We definitely recommend this house. The house/property was as advertised. Tom was great in answering our questions. We were a little concerned that we would regret not spending more $ to stay on the beach side but ended up loving being on the bay side and watching the boats pass by all day. Already planning to book again next summer and plan to bring our boat next time. As others have stated, the house could use a little TLC but it was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The deck was great for our 2 dogs and the massage chair was an added bonus after a long day fishing and at the beach. Can’t wait until next time.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay here. The property gives you the best of both worlds! You have the Bay for fishing on one side and you have the Beach on the other side for swimming and fun in the sun. The owner was quick to respond to any questions I had. My husband and I agreed that we would be staying at this Wonderful Property again in the future.

Location = 5 - Best Location on the Island

This place rates a 5 for location. It has the beautiful bay views and is very short walk to the gulf side to enjoy the beach. Central location to everything. The place was clean in all the main areas; however could use a deep spring cleaning for under furniture, corners, on top of cabinets, decor up high. There are a few items needing maintenance as well..i.e. boards/nails sticking up, light bulbs needing replacing, broken hinges on blinds/doors in sitting room, broken lamp base...nothing major - just needs some TLC. Unfortunately they are building and repairing houses around this home, which made for a few very noisy days. We escaped to the beach when it got unbearable. Great place for 2-4 people and dogs. We loved that the deck which went around 3 sides of the house had gates to allow the dogs to roam freely when we were out on the deck. They had all the bare necessities covered hand soap, dish soap, sponges, dishwasher pods, laundry soap, towels, bedding, pots, pans, dishes, glasses, utensils. Please note there are little to no condiments, spices, coffee as some places provide - no worries - just be aware so you can bring your own. Again best location - other than the noise - and a few additional touches could really add to a stay here. We would rent here again.

Needs a deep deep cleaning and some TLC

Property is very worn, especially the exterior deck and deck furniture. The location is nice and quiet, waterfront with excellent fishing opportunities. The interior of the house seems as if nobody has stayed there in quite awhile. Day one we could not get the TV to work...finally found the correct remote to the DISH system underneath a couch. LOTS of dirt, sand, and dust underneath all of the furniture. We washed the couch covers on day one also. One of the sliding doors in the master will not open and the windows are filthy. Massage chair in the master was a bonus and it works well. Leak underneath the kitchen sink is causing a nasty smell. Several light bulbs throughout the property need replacing. Overall not impressed, just needs somebody to care for it.

Wonderful Christmas Vacation

We loved staying at this property! Close walk to the gulf from the path across the street. We used the kayak and explored the bay side. My son caught a blue crab with the crab trap and a huge black drum fishing (released). The house was perfect for our family of four and two dogs!
