Amazing location
This home had a wonderful, fantastic location. It was right next to the beach access and great for a beach going family. The home was super clean and it was utilities that were fantastic. The kitchen was well stocked, which helped our family a lot, and i love the touches of travel size, soaps, and shampoos for the justin case. The beds are comfortable, the seating in the living room wasn't great because there wasn’t a lot, but overall would stay here again. Looking forward to booking in the future.

Cockroaches, zero response from property manger but location is amazing
Pros:
Amazing location! It’s about an 2-minute walk to the public beach access. The beach itself was beautiful and we lucked out with amazing weather. There are incredible views from the deck, living room, and bedrooms. The views are the best part of this house! The layout of the house was well-suited for our group and we used the playground behind the house. There was a drip
Cons:
The worst part of our stay was the lack or responsiveness when we discovered an infestation of cockroaches. We reported the cockroaches early Sun morning (including photos) and spent all day texting with the property management company asking for an update on when somebody would be out to help. We were continually told there were work tickets entered and the local team would be in touch soon. Sunday came and went. Monday we got a call from the local team to let us know that pest control would be out Tuesday. Unfortunately we were only staying until Wednesday so while we wished somebody would’ve taken our concerns more seriously, at least we knew somebody would be out at some point. However, Tuesday came and went and pest control never came. We were continually texting the property management company asking for help and wondering when somebody would be out. The managers just said there were open tickets for the local team. They said they could not give me contact information for the local team. We checked out Wednesday never having received an update or help of any sort. So disappointing.

Great little house
Our family of 8, with kids ages ranging from 9-25, loved our stay here. The rooms were comfortable and decorated so cute. The kitchen was adequately stocked. The walk to the beach was so easy and short. We had some minor issues with the door and the garbage while we were there,and those were addressed quickly. The back walk was a little overgrown, but it didn’t stop us from using it to get to/from the beach access.

So close to beach access
You can see the waves from the porch and through almost every window in the house. Super short walk to beach access. Plenty of space! We will be back!
