  Rating Details: I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was very clean. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is quite nice - spacious with a cute porch and yard, and comfortable furnishings. The location is great, very close to the water on Tred Avon and walking distance to the little market and Pope's Tavern. A prior renter mentioned the abundance of personal items in the home, including pictures. While there are such items, and an open owner's closet, we were left more with the feeling that someone opened their home to you, rather than a cold, never lived in rental. We did not think that the personal items were overbearing. I would definitely rent the home again.

  Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was more than helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovely holiday at Pride and Joy cottage. We were very happy with the house and location. We had a bit of a hiccup upon check in where the management company office was not open and we were wondering how we would pick up our keys, but it was resolved quickly so was not an issue overall. Also, the TV has a bit of a trick to get it to have sound which we figured out fairly late in the week, so a specific note about that would have been helpful. Having a place where young children and dogs are welcome was perfect for us and we would definitely visit again.

  Rating Details: I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was very clean. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cottage was lovely, clean and comfortable, and the town of Oxford was so peaceful. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. It was great to be able to bring my dog along as well. Loved the front porch and proximity to town. One suggestion-The owners could perhaps remove more of their own personal items from the closets (strollers, child gates, etc)In addition, after shopping, there was no place to put provisions since the pantry cabinet was clearly marked "owners pantry" and was full of owner's things. So for the week the counters were cluttered with what I had bought. I have rented many homes but this was the 1st time there were so many personal items including photos of the owner's family- on the top of bureaues, etc., again limiting space. Between the items in the closets and kitchen as well as all the photos,I sort of felt I was being intrusive,rather than actually living in a "summer rental".

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was above average and we cooked some wonderful meals! It would have been helpful to have access to spices and such as we do enjoy cooking. Rental staff were very helpful in clarifying how to use the TV and DVD player- need good written instructions! I also recommended that the screened porch could use a thorough cleaning to make it more enjoyable to use! The house and location were terrific!

The property manager was adequately helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Someone should get a key to the thumb lock on the doors! Please tell the office that Tidewater Hotel does not keep keys after hours. We were told they did and wasted time after a 12 hour drive. Finally reached after hours number who was stumped too! He called back promptly that house was open. Not a good beginning!

No blinds in the bathroom made for an interesting ' meet your neigbor' experience.

  Rating Details: I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. I was very happy with the location. The vacation rental was spotless. The property manager was very helpful. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A big thumbs-up to the property manager on this one. We arrived at our rental on the evening before Thanksgiving, only to discover (at about 11:30 PM) that there was no hot water. The property manager was not able to fix the problem (no surprise, given the timing) but by 9:00 AM on Thanksgiving morning they had set us up with a different (nicer!) rental house in Oxford. So, while the 4-star rating reflects the lack of hot water in our original rental, the way Eastern Shore handled the situation gets five stars, plus. P.S. As a bonus, they found and mailed to us the two stuffed animals my five-year-old son managed to leave in the original rental. Manager responded on 1/3/2012: Thanks for the kind notes. The photo you sent us of your son with those stuffed animals is very cute and we still have it displayed on our cork board here at the office. We hope to see you and your family back in the future.
