Relaxing time to reconnect with myself and family to focus on emotional healing. Hot tub was amazing. Enjoyed seeing wildlife, ocean, digging for shells. Looking forward to making crafts out of shells with grandkids.

Thank you so much for your compliments, Melissa! We appreciated the opportunity to update the Vrbo listing. Thank you for understanding and for this 5-star review!
House was overall 9/10 the house was clean and well cared for. The dock was nice to have the boat right outside of the door and to catch bait from the canal. The only downside I could find was that the pots and pans left more to be desired. I spend a lot of time in vacation rentals from working in construction. I have to say this was worth every penny and exactly as shown in the listing. I would definitely come back.

We are so glad to hear you found Boxley House - #1131 to be clean and well cared for, Christopher! The dock is super convenient, right? We also appreciate the suggestion to add a few more new pots and pans.
Looking forward to seeing you again soon at the beach!

Nice little house. Older build, has a neat picture in it , looks from 70s (based on a car in the background). Well equipped, clean, easy access to many places. Very quiet neighborhood, which we love. Nice view of the canal. Would have a view out to the sound if not for the neighbor to the left that decided planting a weeping willow on the property line was a good idea. Very nice hot tub. House stays nice and cool in the summer. Its older so lower, be aware if you have lifted trucks. 2 baths total can be a challege. Property manager Molly was Awesome. Would stay again
