Great house but not advertised right
This is a great house that is not worded right. There's an elevator and it's not in the information at all. The pools location is awesome. The people walking up what looks like a private boardwalk is misleading. So people walk up by you at the house's pool. Great linens at house. The management never fixed any of things we reported. It was reported 3 times. Not one thing was fixed. One bathroom has almost no lights. The fan in living room doesn't work. There are tv all over the house and none of them work or are connected to a streaming service. There a lot of cleaning you have to do before leaving or check out with a broom that doesn't work well. So it's basically impossible.

Fall break
The house was plenty big for the 9 of us. The children loved the bunk bed room! The kitchen was a great size and having the large pantry was amazing!. The kitchen was well equipped , but the pots and pans were not in the best shape. The non stick coating was in very bad shape. This is not good since it is not healthy . I know it’s hard for owners since renters might not use proper utensils on such pots. The only other complaint is that the seating on the deck wasn’t very comfortable . An outdoor seating area with cushions would have been much nicer to have. The sunsets were beautiful from that area ! The beds were very comfortable ! Loved having 3 king bedrooms! I would rent this home again but bring my own pots and pans!
