We really liked the condo. But the beds and sheets very cheap. The owners are super nice but they definitely need to upgrade the beds and bedding. Fans on have off and on, no way to adjust the speed.
We call this the cottage. Our family has stayed here twice and we LOVE it. My kids love to fish off of the dock. The accommodations are perfect. The listing says that you need to bring bath and kitchen towels, however, they are fully supplied. I will definitely rent this place again! The only draw back is there is no washer/dryer. Otherwise perfect!!

Hi Jenn, thanks for you wonderful review of "Ol' Salt" - it is a perfect beach cottage! We are so glad you and your family have made wonderful memories here. We hope you come again and again. The PROACTIVE Vacations Team
The decor was attractive and the space layout was excellent. Unfortunately, except for the bathroom and sinks, the unit had not been properly cleaned. The scatter rugs were very dirty, the interiors of kitchen counter drawers were stained with coffee and other spills; the white sofa slipcovers needed to be washed and stains treated; there were mouse droppings in the utensil drawer under the oven. In this time of covid 19, I was especially disappointed with the lack of cleaning. Finally, the walls and ceilings are "thin" . The tenants above my bed paced back and forth rather noisily and frequently most nights, and the tenant in the adjoining unit woke me up at 5 one morning with a terrible coughing fit. It would take just a little extra cleaning time and money to insulate the ceiling and adjoining walls to make this a lovely, clean unit.
The location is great with perfect views of the channel from the front porch. The walk to the beach is fast and easy. The condo decor is up to date but we thought the beds were hard and uncomfortable. The rental company was fast and friendly when we got locked out. Our biggest complaint is how you can HEAR EVERYTHING from the condo above (walking, running, drops, washer running, etc!!).
This place was clean, close to the canal for fishing, close to the beach, and perfect for my wife and I. The management team was very helpful and if we needed anything they were there in a flash. Would stay here again.
