Nice place

I had reservations about working with a company rather than individual owners for our rental but everything about vacasa worked really well. There were a few items that needed attended to regarding the house, and Vacasa was prompt in reply and maintenance. The house is beautiful and the beach was great! Having a pool was awesome too. We recommend this house for a big family. The floor plan is a bit weird but very beautiful!

Thomas Cottage

Our major issue with this property was it was advertised under the Amenities as having 1) Private Pool 2) Heated Pool. We stayed over Memorial Day Week and the pool was far from Heated. The adults could not swim and the 2 children swam a little but froze to death. I had contacted the Relators 2 weeks prior to confirm the pool would be heated and to find out if we had to pay an extra fee to have it heated and were told that NO we couldn't pay the 85.00/ DAY EXTRA fee for heat as the owner would ONLY allow heating from November - April. My point is that it was falsely advertised as having a heated pool and it is EXTRA to rent a house with a private pool (compared to houses without) so we paid for a pool but were not able to enjoy it. They said they would change the amenity description however that did nothing for our stay.
