For any urgent issues after hours, we also offer a 24-hour emergency line, ensuring support at any time during your stay.

Family-Friendly:
As parents of young children, we understand the challenges of traveling with little ones. That`s why we`ve made our home as family-friendly as possible. We provide a Pack `n Play with crib sheets, and there’s ample space in any bedroom for set up. We’ve also stocked kid-friendly cups, bowls, plates, and utensils, along with books, games, and puzzles for fun family time together!

Pet-Friendly Accommodations:
We welcome one dog only (up to 60 lbs) for a fee of $325 per stay. This fee helps cover the additional cleaning required for pet hair. If any waste beyond hair (such as urine or feces) is found, an additional $200 cleaning fee will be charged. Guests are responsible for cleaning up after their pet, and dogs should not be left unattended in the home, as barking may disturb neighbors. Please note: Dogs are not allowed in the pool. Please let us know if you are traveling with a dog

Pool heater:
The pool requires a lot of electricity heat, so using this will incur a daily fee of $125 (Plus Tax). This will be billed prior to your arrival if you request it, please note we need at least 5 days to heat the pool and must be booked and paid for, for the duration of your stay. Our pool is closed and covered seasonally from November to April.

The use of the hot tub is included in your nightly rate, there is no additional charge. Our team will turn the hot tub on prior to your arrival.

No Adhesives on Walls or Glitter:
Do not use tape, hooks, stickers, or any other materials to attach decorations or items to the walls, as this may cause damage. Glitter is extremely difficult to clean and can cause lasting damage to furniture and surfaces. Thank you for respecting our home and helping us provide a clean, welcoming space for every guest.

Pests:
Corolla is home to midges, tiny seasonal bugs that are harmless and do not bite, but they can appear in large numbers. To keep them out, we recommend keeping doors closed as much as possible and turning off outdoor lights at night, as light attracts them. We regularly treat the area, but they may still be present outdoors. Bug spray is a great idea for enjoying the deck and pool areas. Additionally, snakes from the nearby marsh can occasionally be spotted. If you see one on the property, please contact us immediately, and we will arrange for animal control to remove it.

Beautiful home with exceptional view of the water. We loved everything about this house- layout, dock with gazebo, nice beds, comfortable living room, plenty of seating, fully stocked kitchen, paper and cleaning products supplied, elevator and location of home. The sunsets each night were spectacular. Would definitely recommend and would love to say here again!

Disliked: Communication
Overall the place was nice and location was beautiful. The Family had a Great time. HOWEVER The Grill was a mess with rusty decaying grates, see picture taken AFTER scrubbing them for a while. We asked for them to be replaced, but to no avail. Someone just greased the Grill to cover the rust. Cable was out for the first day. We had to wait for router to be replaced.
