Home away from home

It's a wonderful house that actually feels like a home. Listing is accurate and the pictures don't do the view off of the dock justice. Kitchen was well stocked and newer appliances. Host was quick to answer any questions and communicate.There isnt anything negative to say about this rental other than I wish we had rented it for longer. cant wait to come back.place

Perfect Getaway!

Everything was exactly as advertised. The views from the dock were perfect for dolphin sightings and amazing sunsets. No need to battle the crowds on the beach or pier because you have access to catching all the fish you want right in the backyard.No need to look any further for the perfect getaway for you and your spouse or if you want to bring the family down. Thanks for everything!

1st timers

House was clean and comfortable. Loved the dock area. Pool and hot tub were clean but, due to weather, the pool was too cold to swim in. Overall we would rent the property again

Great home on the bay!

We really enjoyed out stay at Sunset Retreat. The home is very attractive, comfortable and has an incredible view of the bay. The family enjoyed fishing from the dock, playing pool in the rec are and riding bikes that were provided. The property is fenced so our pups were safe and could enjoy the sand and sun!

Great bay view

We loved the view from the main living area. It was a non stop view that didn’t disappoint. The kitchen had everything we needed for meals and we ate all there except one lunch. Easy walk to the beach. Plenty of room and perfect with one dog accompanying us.

My family loved staying at this property. The pool, fishing on the dock, seeing the dolphins every morning and kayaking in the bag. Grandkids loved being able to kayak to the oyster beds and investigate. We will be staying here again, perfect size and so much for the kids to do!!

Relaxation

We enjoyed the beautiful sunsets, the pool, and fishing from dock and all the extras this house offered! Loved that it was pet friendly! We’ve been to SGI many times but never end stayed on the bay before and this was a nice surprise and very relaxing! Only went to the beach twice since the house had so much to offer.

Dirty!!! But decent.

After we cleaned the house it was more comfortable. Quiet location. Beautiful sunsets. Nice pier Hot tub has been neglected for a LONG time. We added water (H2O was below filters) added chemicals and scrubbed the scum line. Filters need replaced unfortunately we only rented this place because of the hot tub and sunsets. Comfy couch and beds. Great TV. Great kitchen fully stocked. The potential is there to have a truly wonderful rental but the cleaning crew needs replaced and the amenities need better maintenance.

Relaxing!

We totally enjoyed our stay. We enjoyed the beautiful sunset view from the back porch. We wish it wasn't as cold ( it was in the 30's at night ) but we still had a wonderful time. We are looking forward to returning in the spring.

Sunset Retreat (a little piece of paradise!)

Our stay was wonderful and relaxing thanks to the host supplying all the comforts of home. So quiet and peaceful with amazing views. Even our dogs felt right at home - thank you so much for allowing us to include them on our vacation. We only wish this place was closer to home so we could come visit more often!

Very Relaxing Vacation

You can't go wrong staying here. For the most part, this is a great property. Heather is easy to communicate with and is very responsive. There are a few things that need attention and hopefully after the summer rental season, they will be taken care of. Those things are the tiles in the main living/kitchen area are loose in places and 1 of them is cracked and the sink's faucet on the dock is plugged up such that the water pressure is only suitable for washing your hands. The sprayer doesn't work, so cleaning up is very difficult. I had to bring a bucket of fresh water out there to clean up. As for fishing off the dock, the fishing is good but don't fish straight out because boats come zooming by close in and will snag your line. Ask me how I know. The only safe way to fish is off to the side away from the bay (left as you walk out). Even then, be watchful and don't cast beyond the white stake. Fishing like that, I was able to catch 3 keeper sized reds and a few trout. I also caught 2 reds that were too big to keep and 2 sea monster sized reds I couldn't get all the way in. I used a carolina rig and finger mullet steaks on a 1/0 hook, if that helps at all.

Quite bliss

House is as described. It was very clean and well furnished with everything you could need. The king size bed was very comfortable. A great area, perfect for sunsets, watching the boats coming in and out and dolphin watching. The dock was great for fishing from. There was new house construction happening next door but they were very respectful and quite when they could be. The only glitch was a water leak at the meter so we were without water for about 8-10 hours but it was fixed the same day. Communication with Heather was quick and easy. A very relaxing vacation.

Why they chose this property

This home has a very unique view of the bay. The sunsets are amazing! It has a private dock to fish from or park a boat. Under the home is enclosed where there is a hot tub, pool table and other games to enjoy. The beach is also only a few blocks away.
