We didn’t want to leave!

We absolutely loved this home, the pool, the location…it was like a dream. The pool was the selling point for me when I rented the home, I knew we would use it all day everyday and we did! The outdoor areas are perfect for an afternoon nap or dinner after grilling. The rooms are well decorated and so clean. The kitchen had everything we needed for every meal. Zach is a great host and super attentive. We will be coming back here again for sure!!

A Beautiful Property with a Fantastic Pool

This isn’t an ordinary rental house - it’s like staying in a classy new home before the owners move in. The finishes are beautiful, the towels are fluffy, and the beds are comfy. Each bedroom has its own bath, and enough space to actually feel like private suites - you can tell a lot of thought went into the design. The pool is fantastic and we spent many hours escaping the heat in it! The location is also ideal, only a .5mile walk to the beach and about .75mile walk to Frosty’s for shakes. Zach was extremely responsive with the few questions we had, and the pictures 100% show what you are getting. For those reasons, it is a great 5-star rental, and we loved staying in the home! Given all that, there were a few things we found surprising. Mainly, that the pool pump is right next to the main patio, and runs constantly 8am-8pm. It’s a bit louder than an AC unit and unfortunately is 12” from the table… it was loud enough that we found we avoided hanging out or eating any meals on the patio because of the noise. We were also surprised there are no beach towels, glassware, or bikes available. The towels and glasses were only a surprise given the house was otherwise so well appointed. Not having bicycles available is a recent change, and was only disappointing to our group because we had made plans to explore on them. All in all an amazing place to stay.

Nice visit

The location and the pool was fantastic! The rooms were just right for three couples. One room had a Mildewy/dirty shower curtain and a hair dryer that did not work. The place was comfortable, but not as clean as I would’ve hoped. Beyond that, the house was comfortable and the owner was very helpful and friendly.
