Almost Seaside was great

My friends and I had a nice weekend getaway at this house. It looked just like the pictures and had everything we needed to be comfortable and to make all our meals. My favorite part was sitting on the lawn chairs on the second story deck during sunset.

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely home. We we're comfortable in the home. The only thing I didn't like was that there were a lot of sliders. I suggested to the owner to get the property sprayed.

Wonderful place!

My adult son, daughter and law and I stayed over the weekend. Very nice. Home is beautiful and we liked that rooms were separated from upstairs and downstairs. The living areas were big and comfortable. We played some of the board games the owner had left. Due to very hot weather, we didn't spend much time outside but they do have a beautiful property.

Almost Seaside

We full enjoyed our stay. The house was spotless and accommodated our group of 10 perfectly. We brought our own boat and the dock was was already occupied with a boat so space down at the lake front was limited. Overall good time.

Super cute!!!

LOVED the house! House decor was super cute with all the colorful fish and beach vibes! Right on the lake. We all went fishing off the dock and caught some catfish. Every one had a great time. House was clean, spacious, with plenty of seating and sleeping space. Had everything we needed!! (except bug spray lmao) Was in the area for an event this weekend and this was the perfect spot to come back to and relax! Lovely neighborhood, lovely back yard and amazing wrap around porches with awesome views! A FANTASTIC place to go to when needing to get out of the big city! Also, multiple people getting ready for our event and the showers never ran out of hot water!!! ❤️ Always a plus! My only complaint which has nothing to do with this property or it’s owners is that the neighbor is currently doing some type of construction in their back yard and would start the power tools around 7-8am during the weekend, and the other neighbor was doing yard work with a loud lawn mower today which all had me awake pretty early my entire stay... kinda annoying for me, my friends slept right through it though... but at least being there was pleasant enough to where I didn’t mind being awake!! Just kinda tired. Other than that it was generally really quiet. I rate it a 9.8/10 and would 1000000000% rent it again if in the area!!!!! Owners, Thank you so much!!

Great Thanksgiving Get Away

We stayed here for Thanksgiving and had a great trip. The house is roomy and the kitchen had everything we needed for our feast. Plenty or towels, bedding and games. The only thing we would change is the wifi is not consistent and there is only 1 TV with a few stations.
