Perfect location for Bellingrath Gsrdens
House was great, location was great. The only issue is the driveway. The road to the house is not paved and has extremely large holes/ruts. If it’s muddy, you could get stuck. That is the only drawback, otherwise the property is great!

Love our Coden Retreat!!!
House was great and Harmonee was so nice and responsive to everyone of our questions, the only downfall was the dirt road getting to the house which was very ruddy and muddy. I do not believe this is to any fault to the property and it definitely didn't stop us from enjoying our stay.

Christmas week
Wonderful break for the holidays. Safe and so very comfortable. A quiet place just a short drive from the beach. Mom loved the large bedrooms and how bright everything was. My sisters (the cooks) truly enjoyed the well stocked kitchen. Thumbs up for the towels and linens. My dog inspected the entire outdoor area. A local orange cat made visit!

Clean remote house with gorgeous yard and no outdoor furniture
The house was clean and roomy, the furniture was mostly new and comfortable. The yard was huge and pretty, with big trees and singing birds, however, there was no outdoor furniture so we couldn't enjoy the outdoors. Still, our dog absolutely loved the outside. The property felt remote and without many conveniences around, but this could be a great place to relax, had there been at least some outdoor chairs. We had to navigate around several huge mud holes on the driveway and I was happy we drove an SUV.
