Older but very nice and clean. Beds were super comfortable and short walk to beautiful sunsets. Fishing was great right in front. Caught a flounder right at the steps.

Karen’s communication was great. Easy check in process. Plenty of room! Listing says beach front-the home is at the back of the property with 2 homes in front of it. Also once you walk to the front of the property there isn’t a beach to walk. There was an eagle’s nest we could see that was super neat to watch. Beach chairs and umbrellas in the garage.

The property was nice. We were a group of 5 women and everyone of us thought we were directly on the water from the way the property is advertised on VRBO. When we arrived we were a little confused as we were actually in the back house of the property and had to walk a little bit to get out to the water view which was amazing. The only other issue we had was with dead and alive roaches and spiders. We are all from Florida and do understand seeing a couple here and there but we did see quite a few. We did enjoy our stay and everything else was good with the property!

The property worked perfectly for my family. The deck out back has beautiful views and the fishing back there is excellent. There’s plenty of space to lay out, too, and it’s very private. I thought the property description was clear, and it looked as I expected. There are beautiful beaches within a short drive plus many stores and restaurants. Check in/out was very easy, and the host was very easy to contact and was responsive. This was an easy, relaxing vacation.

We had an excellent experience. We thought the dock would have been right outside the door, you have to walk to the end of the property but the view is absolutely beautiful. Would certainly consider going back.

Karen was very welcoming and responsive by messaging. The location was great and easy access to the water was so nice. Shampoo isn’t provided but this is noted in the property description. Property is very nice but on the slightly older side. We had an overall great stay!

Perfect location and the beach/patio was so relaxing and beautiful. All the amenities you need are provided. Property is older, but it’s as described. If you want/need everything updated I’d look elsewhere but if you’re most concerned about location, space, and private beach/water access this is perfect. We were surprised that that beach/patio isn’t right off the house but the 50 or so steps steps around the other property it connects to isn’t an issue. The owner is onsite and was very helpful/friendly.

Cleaners still there an hour past check in time. Towels still damp due to not enough time to dry and floors not clean. Description and photos of property details misleading. Unable to reach host by phone, attempted to call 3 times.

First of all Brandyn you never read or followed our directions on where to walk to the beach. You were on THE NEIGHBORS PROPERTY TALKING OVER THE FENCE WITH THE NEIGHBORS. AND PLAYING FRIZBEE ON THEIR SAND! The rules state stay on the property do no use the neighbors. And you did not listen. You were a nice family, nice wife, so I gave you a nice review. But I would never rent to you again I NEVER ANSWERD MY PHONE. WHAT A LIE, YOU NEVER CALLED ME ONCE. LETS SEE THE PHONE RECORDS. The house was ready for you. Towels may have been wet but you seemed to enjoy the backyard every single day. Good Luck !

Thank you. But the owners are never there they don’t live there they visit occasionally, and I am never there as well so you were there by yourself, correct? Usually it is that way.

A little piece of paradise!

This house was amazing! Everything was very clean and beautifully decorated. The location was perfect to the water and it was a 5 minute drive to the main restaurant strip as well as to the main beach. Communication was perfect by the host as well. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed the patio at the waterside, the screened in porch and the open porch. The highlight was watching the eagles in the nest next to the waterside nest in the huge tree!
