Wonderful

Place was nice and had plenty of parking like that. It had garage parking as well. The dock in the back was nice and both balconies upper and lower was nice and relaxing.
Place is well taken care of with nice accommodations however, the hot water was only warm and the boat lift
is undersized since our 23 foot boat was about 15 inches or so too wide to fit. Slings are a better option for size consideration. Enjoyed our stay, the neighborhood is quiet

Thanks for the stay. I wish you had communicated with me prior to booking regarding the size of our boat lift and whether it would fit your boat. Our dock is long enough for bigger boats, but the boat lift is specifically designed for our own boat. I also wish you would have let me know about the hot water issue during your stay I would have sent someone over immediately.
Only issue was some burned out light bulbs and wall switches that had no effect.

Thanks for your review and feedback! I am sorry that my cleaning team or previous guests did not report the light bulb issues. Now that I am aware I will have them replaced. We label almost all wall switches inside the house. Some control outside lights which might only be visible at night.
Stayed Feb 10-14
Had a wonderful relaxing long weekend. Even got to see dolphins right off deck.
Home is nicely kept and clean. Well stocked appliances, utensils, and even ice makers. Filtered water a plus. Used the soaking tub and since no tub at home left some lavender epsom salts for someone else to enjoy 😁
Recommend baby gate for top of stairs with pets or kids. My dog wanted to police up and down so gate would be handy but hey she was doing her job!
Only things that would’ve made this exceptional would be having gas grill available and use of elevator because those stairs are steep carrying all your stuff up. Understand not having it available but could’ve been a great option
We would definitely consider returning
The only problems I had with the rental was that some of the utensils were still dirty. Also, some of the pots, pans and cooking utensils are old and need to be replaced, but they did get the job done. My wife found a little mold or mildew around the kitchen sink area. Also, the balcony door off the kitchen opened once when we first arrived, and it was very hard to open. The lock was very hard to turn but I got it opened. When we wanted to go back out on the balcony the lock wouldn't allow you to turn it all the way for the door to unlock. You can still access the kitchen balcony from the bottom floor patio because there are stairs that lead to the kitchen balcony from the bottom floor patio. But it was a hassle, so we didn't use the kitchen balcony. Other than that the house was fine. I thought it was nice of the owner to let us park my truck in the garage so it can be secure. I've stayed at plenty of rental homes and they usually have the garage locked and it's off limits.

Thanks for your stay and for being excellent guests! I am sorry the lock to the kitchen balcony was difficult. The guests after you reported the same problem to me. I called a locksmith and replaced the lock in one hour during their stay, so all is good. If you had told me during your stay, I would have fixed everything right away. I will tell my cleaning team to clean the kitchen including checking the utensils better in the future. Thanks again for staying.

Last Stay
We have stayed at this house previously, this time upon arrival we noticed right away the up keep has not been maintained. The house is settling, the stairs outside coming up to second floor swaying and warped, siding in the back fallen off, inside the house the carpet stained looked dirty, the kitchen table up stairs was dirty actually had food on it, the showers up stairs had hair and “black” stuff on the floor. We had to clean the restrooms before we could use them! Massive water roaches throughout the house! We paid a lot of money to stay here, the owner did not even offer to refund anything! Oh wait the upstairs AC went out 8-9pm at night it was 83 degrees and we had our grandkids with us! The owner did get this fixed! Needless to say we will not be using this house again.

I am sorry that this guest was not satisfied with the house, but she got the fact wrong. I was notified by her at 11:30PM on the sixth night of her stay that AC did not cool, not at 8 pm or it would have been fixed the same evening. I immediately contacted my AC guy, left a message, but I could not get anyone to come so late at night. AC was fixed by 9am the next morning. It was the capacitor of the condenser that failed, which typically occurs without any warning as most homeowner would know. Regarding the cleanliness, I need to mention that this guest tried to sell her cleaning service to me before check in to no avail. This is the first time a guest complained about cleanliness, so I was quite surprised but have brought up with my cleaning team. House is monthly sprayed for pests and did not have an issue with roaches before. I did offer to spray the house but she refused.
This property is more than what we expected. We might have missed it in the listing but we were surprised that it has an elevator. It made easier for us to bring things up and down. My most favorite part is the boat pier in the back of the property. I enjoyed every minute of fishing in there. There was no boring moment even just staying in the property. I will definitely recommend this property to my friends.
I absolutely loved everything about this this place. It felt like home, you got everything you need there. It was very clean and very amazingly decorated. Will be staying here again in the near future.
Very functional property that provided all the amenities of home while on vacation. Conveniently located on waterway for easy pick up for boating excursions. We loved it.
This house was very well stocked with all the things you need- pans, dishes, soap, beach towels, paper products etc. Beds were very comfortable. House was super clean and super close to bridge to cross to island. Dock was nice to fish from and of course, boat slip was an added benefit. Takes about 5-8 min to get out into open water. We saw dolphins on a couple outings!!!! One thing about house, there really are 3 bedrooms and one living space downstairs with bunk beds. If you have kids that will sleep there it may not be a big deal because there is not much privacy. Owner was very easy to communicate with and very responsive. Overall, this is a great house to rent and we’ll definitely be back!!
