TEMPORADA 2020 27 de junio - 04 de julio, 15-22 de agosto y 22-29 de agosto

Thank you Aimee for the kind words , glad you enjoyed your vacation, with a nice stretch of good weather during your stay too.

the home is old, 70 years and for the most part, original. I will address the cleanliness with housekeeping immediately.

Glad you enjoyed, and Glad we could squeeze you in, we typically set aside 4 weeks after college tenants depart, to make repairs, upgrades and address any mechanical issues etc… knocking off items on our TLC list…. while balancing the requests of guests. Congrats on your family members Graduation!!!!!

Thanks guys...you put the bar up high for all my future tenants...

i apologize if you were not happy with the cleanliness, this season we have hired a new housekeeper (after 10 years of having another) and it is something I will look into. There are probably enough utensils to service 12 families (they just seem to multiply, and some are aging, not necessarily dirty) but I will certainly look into that. We start the season with a brand new grill and two propane tanks, in the 8 weeks , it gets heavy use, we have grill liners to help alleviate that, (in the future it may be something I have to ask guests to supply)and instructions as to where each guests can go to refill tanks (top of the street). We have also implemented a weekly COVID Cleaning this year to assure steps that the home is disinfected, as to its effectiveness , i guess i have to leave that to the scientist . All Considered, we do hope you enjoyed your stay.

Thank you for the kind words, Jumping off the rock is a "right of passage" so to speak at BonnetPoint, I'm glad your family took part in the long tradition. Sorry, it appears the fish didn't get the memo. The beach is great and its proximity to our home. We welcome you back anytime the calendar permits... enjoy the remaining summer days ahead.... Mary

Thank you so much for your kind words. If I might add just a little explanation, this home is mostly original, yes, both bathrooms have been renovated, keep in mind it really was designed for a family of 5, with a first floor guest bedroom (my grandparents lol), the first floor bathroom with the spacious shower, was formerly a lavette with an oversized vanity, to accommodate elderly, I opted to add a shower and decrease the sink size in the same foot print that was a lavette (it is intended to be an EXTRA bath...the main full bath is on the upper floor). We have installed a new hot water tank, but with 10-12 people showering at once, I may have to revisit that. The three level deck is fairly new, and we purchase a new grill at the beginning of each season. The parking is a plus since there is no parking allowed inn a Bonnet Shores streets. Great size yard for gatherings including tents. Washer & Dryer is in the basement, another sign of the age of the home. AGAIN, I can't thank you enough for your kind words, I am happy your daughters graduation & celebration was success and a nice memory for all, to last a lifetime.

There is a first floor bedroom, with a full size bed, a large hole was made in the wall, from a previous guest, which Homeaway did not cover because they could not reach the guest, she has since disappeared, conveinently unreachable, and have caused us to raise the minimum age to 30. We placed a picture over the hole, temporality, although the picture looks out of place, it covers the hole. As for the bed frame, this is the first I am hearing about it, we would have come down and repaired it immediately, ALL GUESTS HAVE OUR PHONE NUMBER FOR SUCH THINGS. Their are several umbrella bases in the garage, the deck on the ocean side is tough, it is sunny and the wind is tough on umbrellas, awning and solar shades. With Tripical Storm Hermine in town, there would be no way an umbrella would have been able to be open. The Wicker set is new, and placed temporarily in the living room, until it finds a home in the sunroom, a sectional is definitely more desirable for the living area and is expected to be in place for October. Had we known of these issues during your time here, they would have been addressed immediately. For any future guest reading this, please know, we implore you to call on us to make your stay pleasant. Because of Tropical Storm Hermine, I had been in contact with the guest numerous times, NOT ONCE DID THE GUESTS MENTION ANYTHING IN THIS REVIEW. The home is fully stocked with bedding, linens, fully stocked kitchen, etc... if you have a concern we want to know about it so it be addressed.

Despite Tropical Storm Hermine, the weather ended up working in your favor and give you a little bonus whilst able to watch the, sometimes two dozen surfers right out front of the house. A brand new 5-pc set of pans arrived the day of your departure, it had been noticed and replaced. You are most welcome back in the future should you decide to vacation in the area again. Mary.

Sorry you felt this way. Unfortunately your trip came at a point immediately following three double pane windows had just been broken by our landscaper, causing a boarded up window, which caused the AC to work overtime during a heat wave, in the sunroom. We had two brand-new portable AC's on hand for guests use. Also, as for the original glass door knob(s) , they are not easy to replace and are on order, for which we ran down and installed a temporary fix. This years upgrades were a new stove top, solar shades in the living room, new rattan sofa set and a 2,000 square foot grass paver driveway.
