Place was spotlessly clean. Second time we've stayed here and really enjoy it. Everything works as it should, plenty of incidental supplies, cooking equipment in good condition. The new expanded deck is nice. The fishing from the pier could have been better, I suspect it was a matter of the wind having the water all stirred up and muddy. I'm sure we'll be staying here again.

Cottage on Salt lake-quiet, beautiful and memorable

We loved the quiet neighborhood, the beautiful home, the lovely deck and dock. The beds were soooo comfortable! Location was also a plus being a 5-10 minute drive to main stores and restaurants. Can’t wait to stay again; hopefully this summer if available.

Great Location to Relax

This cottage is the epitome of relaxing and enjoying the beautiful views from the back deck. The inside is spacious enough to accommodate 4 comfortably and we found it the be extremely clean and spotless. The pier is an added bonus if you love to fish, unfortunately during our stay the weather was uncooperative with very windy conditions and choppy water. I would definitely recommend this cottage if you’re looking for a great location to enjoy the Gulf Coast.

Very nice place to relax

Loved the area and the clean interior of this house. Backyard was nice with the small deck for fishing and cleaning fish. There was no underwater green light though for night fishing. But overall it was a wonderful place to stay, would definitely recommend it to a friend.

Excellent place!

We fell in love with this cottage! Everything was great!! All beds are super comfy. Fishing off the dock was a favorite for us! Use shrimp for bait! I suggest to bring some bug spray incase you need it. We will be back soon and can’t wait! Thank you for sharing your place! Booking through Vacasa was easy and personable and best rate!

Great place for a family!

The cottage was very clean when we arrived. The dock was great to fish from though I don’t understand where all the crazy wind was coming from. The cottage is located so close to everything we wanted to do. It’s also located in a very peaceful neighborhood. Kitchen was well stocked and that was very helpful!! Early mornings on the back porch with my coffee were priceless! The only negative thing I would mention is the pungent “attic smell” throughout. Not sure how you get rid off it but it was strong. A/C worked great too!!

Beautiful House

This is one of the nicest rental properties I have stayed in. The home had every amenity one could hope for and it was absolutely spotless and well equipped for all of our needs. We enjoyed the patio immensely and absolutely loved the "big" chairs! The only complaint we had was with the check-in and check out request accommodations. We had requested an early check-in and late check out (approximately two hours). Turnkey was unable to accommodate and provided the reason of they had to allow time for housekeeping to clean. Although we certainly appreciate allowing sufficient time for cleaning (and they did a fabulous job), there were no guest checking out the day we arrived nor were there any guests checking the day we left. We felt like Turnkey was reading a script when we inquired about this rather than trying to accommodate our request. We would have understood if other guests were leaving/arriving but that was not the case. For the price we paid, it is unfortunate they were not more flexible. That said, the overall check-in process was seamless and we really enjoyed our stay.
