Location was excellent. Short walk to beach. Quick response to questions. Beds were very comfortable and each room had its own bathroom. A plus for a group of 8 girlfriends. House layout was great and tv channel choices was wonderful. House was a little tired but would rent it again.

Great place!

We had a great time staying here!!! It was just minutes from the beach and in a nice quiet neighborhood. We usually stay in the Coligny area, so we loved how quiet and private the beach near this property is! The pickleball court was definitely a bonus. We are considering staying here again. There were some minor things that we encountered that I have addressed directly with Vacasa. You won't be sorry if you book this property!

Great House, check in process lacking info

We really enjoyed staying at the house. It was great for a group of 4 of us that were there for a conference. We all had our own bedrooms and bathrooms which was nice for a group of coworkers.Only negative I had was the check in process was very lacking. We were not told that we had to go to a vacation rental center to get passes to get through the gate. The staff at the gate told us to go to their welcome center and then from there we had to go to Vacasa to pick the car tags up. The staff at vacasa were rather rude about the whole VRBO process. It would be helpful in the texts with the WiFi password and door code to mention the place to pick up the car tags.
