We had a great stay! Super close to the strand and a quick drive to East Beach. The house is lovely and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen was clean and has lots of countertop and room in dining. The backyard is super cute and the pool is an added bounus! Would most definitely rent again!!

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the home, especially the backyard and pool, and that the location worked out perfectly for your stay. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
The home was as described and was well appointed. It was located in a quiet neighborhood and was walking distance to the strand and historic areas. Great location! The ability to park behind the home was a plus. The home was cleaner than many other locations that we have rented in the past. I would definitely recommend this location for small families or groups.

Hi Christine, thank you for spending time sharing with us your experience during your recent stay with Porter. We are very happy to know that you had the best time during your stay. We always make sure that our home is well cleaned and sanitized before our guest arrives. We are glad that the home was walking distance to some of the places you visited while on vacation. We can't wait to host you again in the future!
This place was amazing. Let me say it again. Amazing. Beautiful home from outside in. They literally had everything. I pack a lot because you never know but they had things that we didn’t have to go out for like bags of ice in freezer, batteries things you tend to forget about. We brought fans but they had those as well. They had a highchair thank goodness. Extra beach towels. It just seemed like they really thought of everything. The beds were so comfy and the pool and being able to grill a few days was the absolute best. Sounds funny but toilets were awesome when you stay you’ll understand. Only problem we had was arrival the door code didn’t work and had to wait for like 30-40 min for someone to return call and fix it. Seriously glad I picked this place it is now my favorite place to stay here and will be as long as available. Thank you.
