The host was very helpful. The location was perfect & having the golf cart was a big plus. The house needs some attention on the outside. We actually had to trim the vines on front porch to sit comfortably on the swing. I wouldn’t recommend this house for anyone over 60 as the bathtubs & shower doors were unsafe for us. No grab bars, small entry into shower & the glass doors didn’t seem safe for us. Bedrooms are good size & this house is good for anyone with children or pets.
