Just got back from an 8 night stay and had the best time. House was perfect for our family of 5. The golf carts add much fun to the experience. Hosts are very friendly and responsive to any questions or needs. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you for your 10/10 review. We are so happy you loved the house and area. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
House was everything someone could ask for. Was hesitant not staying beachside but made the right decision. Easy to get to the beach and better location for shops and wharf. Would stay here again!

Thank you for your amazing 5 star review! We are so happy you loved the house and location. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
The house is beautiful. We had plenty of room for our group of 8. Location was perfect because we have friends that own a house around the corner. Very convenient with easy access to the beach. Would definitely recommend reserving the golf carts to get around the neighborhood and to the beach.

Thank you for your 5 star review! We are so happy the house and neighborhood were perfect for your visit. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
We had a wonderful time staying at Laurel Grove. The home was clean and worked well for our family. The only issue we had was with the washing machine. Other than that, I would highly recommend this home and would definitely consider staying there again.

Thank you for your 5 star review. We are so happy you would recommend this home. We did have the washing machine repaired. It is functioning properly. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
First of all - Do something about the cold weather and especially the 5 inches of snow that hung around for days. Secondly, the TV setup was poor. We had to get someone in there to help. Was never able to stream programs. Thirdly, we did not expect to have to dispose of roaches. One a day for 4 days. We maybe are not good ones for a review. We left Florida a week early mainly due to the cold weather and snow. Sorry, but we would not rent this house again.

Reviewer Comments:
The overall experience at this house was excellent. The home is very nice and location is amazing. The management staff was great and very helpful. The only negative was that our dryer stopped working 2 days into our stay. And it was not able to be replaced until after our departure. We had to transport our laundry to other locations which was quite a bit of a hassle. Especially with having to wash/dry towels each day.Other than that it was absolutely great.
