Spacious family weekend

The house was a great price for the amount of space and amenities! We cooked, grilled, swam, relaxed in the hot tub, watched hockey, and enjoyed each other’s company! It was just a short drive into Carrabelle for dinner at a seafood restaurant on the water the first night. The rest of the weekend, we stayed put. There was no reason to leave since everything we needed or wanted was right there. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking!

Affordable and Wonderful

This house was perfect for our family of 8. The rooms were spacious. The game room is not connected to the house, it’s like it’s own pool house which was nice because the kids could play pool after we went to bed and didn’t bother us. The pool is smaller than we thought in the pictures, but because of the weather being bad we spent our whole weekend in it and the hot tub. There were no bedbugs at all like the previous reviews stated. Everything was clean. The beds were extremely comfortable! Will be renting again next year!

Nice property. Quiet and secure neighborhood.

Overall was good 1st time experience for our family of 5. Pool and outdoor patio area was nice. Kitchen, dining and living rooms were a good size and comfortable, Bedroom off kitchen had a privacy issue with an opening above the headboards into the kitchen and the door leading out onto the screened porch area. I would suggest closing that opening and adding blinds to the door glass area. AC was not adequate in the game room, but it's Florida. Toilet flushing issue in master bathroom - was told it would be fixed before we left, but was not - hopefully that is fixed by now.

Fun weekend

The house itself needs a lot of TLC outside and inside (door handles). There are no fire detectors in the house. All disconnected and pulled off ceiling. For entertaining, it’s set up perfect. The iron level in the water is AWFUL! Never experienced water so full of iron. Don’t cook with it and keep your mouth shut when showering! The layout of the house and entertainment outside area was awesome! Definitely will rent again!!

A nice property

Overall the property is really nice. It was nice to have such a large area to be in between the house, pool house and pool area. Some of the things at the house are a little tired and could use a little attention like the pool chairs. We did really enjoy the convenience of the pool and once the kiddos figured out how to play pool, they were hooked there as well. Overall an affordable property in a nice quiet area.

Great place to stay!

We love Carrabelle, we have stayed at a couple of other place in the past, we had friends with us this time so we needed a larger place. This place was great! The only negative thing I can say is (as other reviewers have said) the hot tub doesn’t work. The house, pool, and pool house were great though! Some reviews said the house wasn’t stocked, if you are expecting a “hotel experience” you never get that when renting a home or condo, always bring a few items with you or buy them when you arrive (a roll of paper towels, toilet paper, and maybe some napkins) they provide 1 roll of TP for each bathroom, and 1 roll of paper towels, but if you are staying longer than 3 or 4 days you may need to grab some more. Like I said before, the lighthouse was great we will be back!

Very comfortable house and pool. All outside lights were inoperable.

House was clean and stocked - very quiet neighborhood- 5-10 minutes from shops, restaurants and public beach. We didn’t spend any time outside after dark because there were no working lights. Minor repairs would make this place perfect.

June stay

Property is much larger than originally thought it would be. We have a large family with lots of kids pool was still large enough for everyone to have a good time. Only draw back is unable to locate really good food in the area, but it’s not a fault of the home. Would stay again.

Secluded peaceful home

The home was clean. I couldn’t get majority of the tv’s to work but at least the one in the main room worked. A lot of switches for the outside either didn’t work or couldn’t figure out what switch went to what. Would of been great if they had the kitchen a tiny bit stocked (condiments/minimal cooking supplies) but that’s okay since it wasn’t a long stay. The pool house was a little dirty and none of the fans worked in there (not that it mattered since I didn’t really use that area). Hot tub is still out of commission so it probably should just be covered up since it was dirty. The home in general was in a very quiet area, great for seeing the stars at night. Home just needs some TLC since it seems some of the home is being neglected (small maintenance of the home) so it can stay a great rental for years to come.

Great place overall but needs significant maintenence in several areas

We loved the house overall and the property managers at Sandy Beach were great. They sent a repair person out over an issue I only reported to them related to other renters potentially getting injured later, I never asked them to fix it the same day for me personally. The actual owner of the property simply needs to put some money into repairs. The towel bar fell off the wall, there's no cover over the AC light above the shower and the shower head can rotate upward, the Direct TV in the living room shuts down over an overheating issue because it's a very old box, the AC units in the pool house haven't worked in at least a year based on other reviews and there's mold growing in parts of it (it stank so bad I didn't want to walk in) just to name a few. Definitely don't plan to make use of the pool table, workout equipment, or the pool house itself; but the actual pool itself was nice. On the good side, the kitchen has new appliances and the master bedroom mattress was comfortable. We did enjoy our stay overall, I just wanted to leave an honest review regarding the maintenance issues so future renters can make a decision on what matters to them. If I'd shown up with several kids, that living room TV issue would have made my vacation miserable I'm sure. Luckily I was traveling with only my wife and I brought my own Fire TV stick. I would rent this home again, but I do hope they spend some money on some much needed maintenance. It's a shame for such a nice place to rot away. Also, be sure to bring everything you think you may need to cook and clean, there's very little provided on site.

Awesome house and location!

We loved our stay at the Lighthouse! The house is wonderful for a family, very spacious. Had a great porch, amenities, hot tub, screened in patio, and the pool is wonderful and very clean! The only issue we had was the house being poorly stocked with not enough basic supplies for 5 days (had to buy dish soap, toilet paper, paper towels, laundry detergent and trash bags), and dishes were left in the cabinet dirty from the previous tenant. Small inconveniences for overall a good experience. The neighborhood was beautiful, very peaceful and we were just a short drive from the beach, good restaurants, hiking trails, and a short drive to appalachicola. Would stay here again!
