A Lovely Experience

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived to a cool, spotless, welcoming home with ample parking space and basically our own personal pool as homes that share it were unoccupied. The floors were perfect for a crawling baby and the bedrooms and bathrooms were sufficient for our party. It’s located by the channel so we were surprised to see lots of fish jumping and volunteer sunflowers growing. The only glitches we had were the uneven floor in the hallway by the front downstairs front bedroom and the trundle bed. I feel the trundle is basically unusable because the room is small and anyone on the bunkbeds would have to step on the trundle to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night. Overall, a wonderful experience.
