This beach house was amazing and we had an awesome stay experience! I would definitely book this House again in the future. Everything is nice and clean. And the walk to the beach is only five to 8 minutes, and the whole experience is just amazing.

Plenty of rooms and bathrooms. Very spacious. The shuffleboard table had no pucks. All the darts were broken. There were no beds or fire pit on the deck. There wasnโ€™t a key to the garage, where Iโ€™m guessing some things were stored that we could have used

This home was perfect for our family. We enjoyed the spacious decks and seating. Beautiful view of the bay and gorgeous sunset. The only thing I would change is more pans for cooking and additional dishcloths. The host was great! We would rent again. Thank You
Beautiful sunset from the deck overlooking the bayside

I usually not one to make negative reviews , but people need to know before they book this place! We specifically chose this property for the beds and fireplace outdoors like in the pictures, and those are non existent. Reported to the contact person and they told me the last renters ruined them. But did the last renters also ruin the double queen bed room? Because that bedroom was completely replaced with three queen bunks in one room. The stove draw was broken, we had to buy a shower curtain to cover the outdoor shower room, there was mold on the shower curtains in the house bathrooms, there was a hole in the bedroom door, the closet doors were off the hinges, the a/c vents leaked in the kitchen area we used a mop bucket to catch the water, and there was condom boxes and trash left under the beds. So no, we will not rent there again. All these things were reported to the contact, pictures were sent and nothing was done.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear your experience did not meet your expectations. We understand your disappointment regarding the missing outdoor furniture and the bedroom configuration. The outdoor beds and fireplace were unfortunately damaged by a previous guest and had to be removed, and we regret that this change was not reflected before your stay. We have since updated the listing to accurately represent the current setup. We also take your maintenance and cleanliness concerns seriously. The issues you reported have been addressed with our maintenance and housekeeping teams, including repairs, deep cleaning, and a review of our inspection process to help ensure future guests have a better experience. We appreciate you bringing these items to our attention, as guest feedback helps us continue improving the home.
