We had a wonderful stay! The house was exactly as described - clean, comfortable, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a relaxing and fun trip to the beach. The communication from the Bolivar Vacations team was outstanding from start to finish. They were responsive, friendly, and made the entire process seamless. Check-in and check-out was easy, and every detail was well organized. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend this property and Bolivar Vacations!

Everything about our weekend trip was great— the house was very clean and well-appointed and the proximity to the beach was incredible. There was an issue with the keypad upon our arrival, but management couldn’t have been more courteous or helpful when I called (sometime after 8pm). I definitely recommend Shenanigans, particularly for large groups or families.
