We had a delightful stay, as always. We loved SH161! The decor was lovely and everything we needed was there. I especially loved the rocking chairs on the balcony...a very nice tough. We have already booked this unit for next year.

Condo was great. Had everything we needed, clean, and a great view. Would definitely rent again. Only con was although furniture in living room looked nice was uncomfortable to sit on. Summerhouse is wonderful and the grounds always beautiful. My Happy Place.

We always enjoy staying in Summerhouse unit SH161 however, October 2024 was a complete washout due to hurricane Milton. We evacuated Florida, returned home but due to personal complications we did not get back down for this stay. We will return in April.

We enjoyed our stay in SH 161 and have already booked this unit for next year. However the television in the living room is on its last legs. The right side of the screen is turning dark and dull. The white sofa, as lovely as it looks, has no support and the cushion fabric is tearing (much worse than it was last year). We truly love the location of this unit and look forward to our next stay.
