House was wonderful and accommodated the 4 couples and 5 year old and nanny. Lots of space. There was plenty of activities to do in outdoor areas. Media room was awesome for watching football and movies.

Amazing stay!!

My group and I had 14 people (5 couples 4 singles) and it was perfect. Each couple had their own bed and then the singles got the bunk beds. Everything is laid out very well. We had the BEST time. We hired a hibachi chef to come cook and it did not disappoint. We had a blast!!

Fun retreat

Very nice house. The pool and slide were fun. I would recommend bringing an extra pool towel or two. There were NOT 7 bedrooms as listed. There were 6 bedrooms. There are two rollaway cots in one closet

Boys golf trip

It was such a great place to stay, close to all of our golf courses we played and food we wanted to eat! The pool and putting green were essential to our fun. The property manager was super helpful with giving us the tour and showing us the ropes, very professional set up and I would recommend staying here to any and everyone

Great place

This home was perfect for a group of friends wanting a get away without kids. It would also be good for kids depending on age since the pool is deep. We had issues getting the iPad connected to the pool setting as it wouldn’t connect even with router resets.

A perfect house for 2-3 families

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house was clean, spacious, outdoor area is perfect for hanging out during the day or night, highly recommend. The only issue was lack of water pressure in one of main bedrooms. Otherwise, it is a perfect spot!

Great Stay for Groups – Some Cleaning Issues on Arrival

We recently stayed at this property with a group of four families. Upon arrival, the interior of the home was very clean and well-kept however we did note that the images online do make the home look more current and less worn than it is in person. The exterior areas however—including the pickleball court, pool, spa, and surrounding spaces—appeared to have been completely overlooked in the cleaning process. Tables were dirty and sticky, there was food stuck to the pool deck, a dirty paper towel left on the stairs near the slide area, cigarette butts on the ground, a beer can on the pickleball court, and even glass shards in the gravel nearby.That said, the management team was incredibly responsive and helpful. Any time we needed extra supplies like toilet paper, paper towel, or dish soap, they delivered them quickly without hesitation. Once the pool vacuum was dropped off and the outdoor spaces were cleaned up, we were able to fully enjoy our time there.The space itself is great for up to three families. With four families, it was a bit tight in terms of bathrooms—one more ensuite would have made it perfect. Overall, once the initial issues were addressed, we had a wonderful stay and made some great memories.

Great house

We really liked this property. It’s located next to tons of grocery stores and other shops so stocking the kitchen was easy. The kids spent all day in the pool. The waterside is amazing, and the heater kept everything warm. The 3 master suites are huge and bigger than they look online. The other 3 bedrooms are smaller but still a good size. The kitchen was a bit small but worked for our group. Interior finishes weren’t super high end but were clean and functional and we spent most of our time outside. Would definitely stay again.

Great location and house!

This was a terrific location, close to everything. We were traveling with friends and kids (7 and under) and the house was perfect. There was so much to do and space for everyone to do their own thing.

I was so happy with everything about this house. I felt so comfortable like I was in my own home. We loved the pool, games and the out side entertainment area. Very clean and had everything you need to feel right at home
