We have a great time. Emerald Island is a pleasant and quite area. At least when we stayed. The residence was very clean and inviting. * the water filter needs to be changed and would have been nice to have a couple of extra trash bags. So, I really didn't have any complaints.

The reflector pans under the stovetop elements don’t fit well so 3 out of 4 burners are slanted, adding a little challenge to cooking. House was very clean but needs inside door mats to catch sand. In order to plug in one bedside lamp in a first floor bedroom we had to stretch the cord across the floor creating a trip hazard. Plenty of towels etc. The upstairs bedroom is a lovely space accessed by a spiral staircase. Fabulous views, wonderful porches.

We appreciate you pointing out the details regarding the stovetop reflector pans, door mats, and bedside lamp placement. Those are exactly the kinds of things that help us improve the guest experience, and our team is already addressing them to ensure everything is more comfortable and functional moving forward. We’re happy to hear the home was clean and well-stocked with linens—our housekeeping team takes a lot of pride in that.
