We had a wonderful stay and couldn't have asked for a better experience. The property was exactly as described: clean, comfortable, well-maintained, and in a great location. Communication with the host was excellent, and everything we needed was provided. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Everything about the house was nice. Especially loved the porch and the sky porch. The only criticism I have of the property was the bedding in the yellow room was pretty mediocre. The pillows were extremely flat and the comforter was scratchy. Besides that I would have no problem booking again. It was an awesome place.

Loved the property and the layout ! Proximity to beach was fantastic ! Great view from the screened in porch ! The only improvement I could see was to clean the screened in area a bit more and also the open deck at the bottom of the stairs. I would add a gate at the very top of the stairs that go to the outdoor deck up top. I would have loved to have acces to some cleaner so I could clean the floor when my dog had thrown up - Ihad some wet wipes but would have referred something stronger. I don’t travel with cleaner as most places I have been to gave you access to it. Overall, a wonderful place to stay - really enjoyed and hope to return !

Booked a last-minute SGI trip and came across this gem! We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The views and beach access were incredible. We especially loved having rooftop access to enjoy the beachfront scenery. The beach was only a few steps away and we were lucky enough to have a small beach access point directly across from the property, so it wasn’t overly crowded like the main public accesses.My only complaint would be the bedding and pillows in the rooms. The pillows were pretty flat, and the bedding felt a little incomplete- almost like it was missing a decorative comforter set. The bunk room was definitely more kid-friendly than adult-friendly, so I’d probably recommend it for just one adult.Other than that, the house had plenty of parking, an outdoor hose and shower, and we loved that it was pet-friendly! We would definitely stay here again if we come back to SGI!

We found the described property to be pretty accurate. The accommodations were comfortable, supplies were well stocked, and the location was ideal for our trip. We would not hesitate to book this property again. The one area that could have used some improvement was the area outside the home, meaning scraps of trash and children's plastic toys around the yard could have been picked up prior to our arrival. All in all, we were very pleased with this rental property!
