Our stay in this phone was good. It's really cute but it's a lot smaller than it shows in the listings. But if you got like six people or more it's pretty small cuz the sofa bed is very uncomfortable but it is a cute little home. Got a cute little area outside for sitting and barbecuing overall. Very enjoyable trip. We did enjoy it. It was comfy and cozy and cute right close to the beach. That was the best part. Thank you for having us. Hope to book with y'all again sometime in the future

Hello Sharon, thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the home cozy, cute, and comfortable. It’s wonderful that you were able to relax and enjoy the outdoor sitting and barbecue area, along with the close proximity to the beach.
We also appreciate your feedback regarding the size and sofa bed, as guest input helps us continue improving the experience for future stays. Thank you again for choosing to stay with us, and we’d love to host you again sometime in the future!
This place was so cute, clean, and organized. We would rent it again without hesitation. Everything was well organized from the amenities in the house to the check in and out process. 5 minutes or less to the beach, pleasure pier, restaurants, and shops. Easy to just park the car and walk everywhere. Be sure to bring your own coffee (1 pod provided) and oil for cooking.

Very disappointed with the surf shack. I stayed there for 2 nights and had no hot water. I called the management company but nothing was done. The thermostat was so complicated I could not turn on the heat, so I had no heat for 2 nights. The front couch had stains on it and the shower floor was very old and cracked. Did not enjoy my stay there . The good point was that the house is very close to the beach, about 4 blocks away.Thank you, AL
The only positive about this place was it was close to the beach. From the very start the lock pad did not work. We were given the wrong code, and when we called they couldn't give us a correct one. The house is very small. It says 2 bedrooms, I would not all this a 2 bedroom house. There was one room you that had a very shaky bunkbed, you had to go through the bedroom to get to it. There are no doors on either "bedroom". The window would bang loudly every time it was windy. Waking us up from our sleep. The cold air came in from the outside due to windows not being sealed. The shower is terrible. It is tiny. I was unable to shave my legs without cutting myself multiple times. The pullout bed was disgusting. The tree in the back/side yard drops so many berries and seed, you can't enjoy being out there. They were all over the ground, chairs, and our shoes every time we went over to the area to let the dogs out. They are also toxic to dogs. The pictures show paddle boards, you are not able to use the one there, as it is locked up. They table is a patio table with 2 chairs. This place may be ok for two people, but I would not put more than that in here. This is not a place we would stay again or suggest to any friends or family.
