Great area!

We went down there for spring break and took littles and big kids. The house provided for both and for us adults. Location was great and not far from everything that we needed!

Great House & Neighborhood

This was a great house for our Girls Weekend. There were plenty of comfy beds and space for us to spread out. The decor was beautiful and the pool and downstairs patio area were awesome. .

The property was a little smaller than we expected, but lovely. Unfortunately, the pool was green and cloudy the entire time we were there. The pool guys were very nice and tried to shock it to get it looking better, but the large group of Spring breakers that were there the week ahead of us took a toll on the pool. The middle burner on the grill didn’t work, and the fire table would not light.

The Home With EVERYTHING!

We had so much fun here! We stayed here with our family of three little ones and our friends who had two under two. The space downstairs was perfect for hours of entertainment. This home had everything we needed for a great trip. Would stay again!

Contacted host on Saturday to confirm heating the pool. Got no response. Checked in on Monday saw pool lights on and everything looked good. Didn’t check temp until everyone went to get in (it was a little chilly) but pool would be warm… no ice cold…no way to turn on without a “work order in place and extra 50 a day to heat. Price not listed anywhere I could see. Spent 5 hours on calls emails etc to get said work order 2 crying kids about no swimming that night. Beds way too high for elderly/accessibility issues and small kids. Double bunk room too hot according to kids. Toilets/couch super low chairs and bar stools cheap and uncomfortable. Propane fire pit and grill all had one 1 use of propane left. Overall not worth the huge price tag. We tried to make the best of it but it was a wasted trip and we were all really bummed about it. Just go to hotel with all these issues unless privacy is a huge want/need but be ready to overcome multiple challenges to have a good time.
