Great place

We enjoyed every minute! This place is great, very clean, and well stocked. If you’re like us, we like to stay in and cook after a long day in the sun and the kitchen had all the utensils and cookware we needed to make meals. There is plenty of beach stuff to use too! The beach and bay side were both so convenient and private. Loved seeing all the dolphins!

Great location & Spacious Layout

We had a wonderful time and there was plenty of space and kitchen appliances for us to do breakfasts and dinners here. They also had a baby gate to block the stair opening! The only downfall is the heated pool was not working and the system had an error on it while we were staying which was one of the selling points to booking this house. But we enjoyed our stay regardless.

Thankful for Thanksgiving

We so enjoyed our stay! The house was perfect for all extended family to have plenty of room. Going to a rental property for Thanksgiving, you don't know how the kitchen will be stocked. This kitchen had everything we needed and then some for cooking Thanksgiving dinner. All I can say is WOW! everything was PERFECT!! Comfortable, spacious, clean - everything you need in a rental property to have a wonderful vacation!

Family/Friend Trip

Amazing house. We all loved it. Was surprised and impressed with how stocked the kitchen was with being a new house. Loved the short walk to the beach. There were plenty of pool toys that we never got out the ones we had brought with us. Had a few beach chairs/toys. The grill was out of gas first couple of nights we were there and they replaced it quickly.

Great For Our Family

The house offered plenty of indoor space for our family and a lot of outdoor space. It was cold and clear when we were there so the beach was less of an attraction. But the area between the house and the Sound was fun for all kinds of ball sports. The volleyball net allowed for a few intense games among siblings. It was also great to stroll out to the end of the dock and enjoy the nice view. We only went to the Gulf side twice: once to the west end public park that was about a mile down the road, and once to the far eastern side of the island for a beautiful sunset. The heated pool was another highlight. The kids loved the opportunity to swim outdoors in January and it was warm enough for a few adults to go in. The bunk room upstairs is very spacious. Despite a range of ages, the kids in that room were happy. The four main bedrooms were especially nice and comfortable. Also, no problems with hot water, wifi, the TVs or the appliances. The kitchen included plenty of cookware and utensils and we were able to easily prepare several meals. We chose the house because it was one of the biggest properties available and we liked the low-slope ramp for our oldest family member. Also, we felt that the Sound-side location was better for us. Overall, it was an easy stay in a recently-built and beautiful house that was perfect for our family get-together.
