Our stay at Big Waterfront House on the Bay! definitely had a beautiful view, walk to the beach access, and swimmable waters. The housekeeper was unaware we had early check-in so they were still finishing up cleaning when we arrived. They let us know when an area was finished so we could bring our stuff in. Just seemed a bit rushed.The bedrooms were spacious and mattresses were comfy- felt like memory foam. Shower curtains seemed clean... No visible gross mold growing on the bottom of them. The tubs could use some barkeepers friend and belach to get the build up off. Toilet paper was good quality and extras were available. Towels were provided, but would be helpful to have a few towels- especially if staying more than a night. Some basic toiletries were provided - soap, shampoo, conditioner. If you plan to stay for a bit of an extended period of time, the kitchen has some pots/pans/utensils- we were able to make tacos, but check before you cook incase there is something specific you need. The coffee pot worked like a charm and the pot itself didn't leak when you poured a cup! The upstairs bathroom needs a tub renovation, so check with host before you book to make sure the upstairs shower is repaired and won't cause a leak into the foyer/dining area. Doors need to also be fixed both screens and locks. To contact host I used phone number provided on VRBO not the one on the wall at the bottom of the stairs.This house has MUCH potential for a lovely stay... Just needs TLC.

Short Stay while visiting son on base
The home was centrally located just off the highway. There are MANY steel steps to enter the home, just be aware of traveling with older parents or small kids. It is right on the water with a dock which was great for fishing. We spent most of the time sitting on the back deck enjoying the view. The kitchen needed some things- no toaster, baking sheet or larger nonstick frying pan and very little silverware. The property manager was great and responded very quickly- even had a repair person over the next day to fix a crack in the shower. We hope to stay there again.
