Excellent, Charming Stay

My family and I stayed here in late June and we loved it. Very cute property, really has a classic beach cottage feel. The neighborhood is really cute, and the water views are lovely. It's a very convenient drive to the beach, as well as to restaurants and grocery stores, so we felt very well situated. Nicole was a wonderful host, and was very helpful in her communication, and accommodating to my questions. The only thing I would say is, if you're planning to use the kitchen for much cooking, just know that the dishes are a bit of a hodge-podge. And not all of the dishes (mostly the pots/pans, and some utensils we used) were completely clean. But we were able to wash everything, and we managed with what we wanted to cook :)Overall a great stay, and we would definitely come back!

Not senior friendly

The place could be better if they cleaned it. Bathroom rugs were filthy, pillows were filthy (we brought our own TG), the floors were not vacuumed very well (game and puzzle pieces on the floor from previous renters). The Internet was really bad, unavailable most of the time. Clean it up!!! The shower is a big tub with NO SAFETY handles and could be dangerous. We only stayed two nights Thank goodness. I'm sure they'll give me a poor review in retaliation but not sure I'll use VRBO again. We left it cleaner than they left it for us!

Cute and comfortable

This house was really cute and cozy. The decor was nice and had everything our family needed. It was an easy drive to a few different beaches. There is a 50 fee if you use their linens and don’t wash them. We had to leave early so didn’t have time and just paid the fee. The host was very communicative and helpful.

Cute development with beautiful lakes

The property was nice, although the key was very hard to locate and lots of equipment (baby stroller and baby toys) had to be moved in order to find it. There were no cleaning supplies but we were directed to clean prior to our checkout. There was one roll of toilet paper for our whole stay and the heat was finicky with the upstairs being extremely hot and the downstairs being freezing cold. The hot water was very limited and the water turned ice cold after only a short while. Overall the property was nice the stay nice even though the weather could’ve been better.
