Thank you for your lovely feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed the outdoor family area, found the beds comfortable, and had everything you needed in the kitchen. It’s wonderful to hear the home worked well for your stay — we’d be happy to host you again anytime!
The bedrooms are very small. 12" around the beds. Internet did not work so no TV's worked. Yard looked like it had not been mowed in a month, weeds 2ft tall and overgrown. Outside furniture was heavily stained and the grill looked like it had not been cleaned in months.

Thank you for taking the time to share this. We're sorry the home didn't reflect the standard of upkeep we aim to provide, both inside and out. The connectivity and the outdoor maintenance items you raised have been shared with the team responsible for the home so they can be inspected and addressed. We appreciate you flagging the specifics, as they help us correct what fell short.
Should you consider staying with us again, we'd welcome the chance to provide a better experience.
Nice and clean. Property was centrally located. a 5 minute drive to anywhere on the Island. Great outdoor family area with TV. We will definitely be back.

Overall we enjoyed a very nice stay here and would definitely consider coming back. The home was clean, kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need to cook, and there was plenty of space for our family of 7. We especially enjoyed the fenced-in space under the house, it was great for eating outdoors, watching movies in the evening, and playing games at the picnic tables. The only downside is the location. VRBO's location shows the home in walking distance to the beach. The actual location is across the highway(bay-side, not beach side) and a few miles north. So it was hard to find and we had to drive to the beach instead of walking.

Thank you for your review! We’re glad you and your family enjoyed the home, especially the outdoor space and amenities. We appreciate your feedback regarding the location and will make sure to clarify this for future guests. We’d love to host you again!
Very cute house in a good location. Easy to access the property. Adequate amenities except there was no laundry detergent available to start the wash at the end of the trip.Also only two cup towels in the kitchen. I called the number for help and my call was answered quickly. Very helpful.The only thing I wish they had provided a booklet listing restaurants, shopping and directions for use of appliances.The best thing about this property is the area under the house was a great place to hang out. The houses in this area are very close together and it can get a bit loud in the evening. Although people do quiet down after 10:00pm.If bringing your doge be very careful because the sand burrs are everywhere! We were constantly getting them out of our dogs paws.

Thank you for the detailed feedback! We’re glad you found the house cute, the location convenient, and the team responsive when you called. Your notes about laundry detergent, kitchen towels, and an info booklet are helpful for us to improve future stays. It’s good to know the space under the house worked well for hanging out, and we appreciate the heads-up about noise and sand burrs for guests with pets.
