Newly Renovated Watersound Beach Cottage / Private Beach Access with Golf Cart

Happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again!

The flies during your stay were a direct result of the rare on shore winds coming from north inland areas of the panhandle. This is a confition that occurs during the early fall months

Thank you Rachel! We look forward to your family's return!

Thank you for your kind words and we hope you to see soon!

Unfortunately either the prior or stated renter allowed the battery charger to stand uncovered in the rain during charging of the golf cart. There was an electrical short which blew out the golf cart charger motherboard . The golf cart company that we contract for service did not identify the problem until mid week as they were backlogged with service orders in preparation for the start of the spring rental season. A new golf cart charger costing over $400 was immediately ordered but unfortunately it did not arrive until a day before this renter's vacation week ended. We did everything to accommodate the renters needs however their emotional state over the golf cart never subsided even though we provided payment for rental bikes at their request (the golf cart is complementary not a paid for service). The golf cart is practically brand new and in excellent shape, the cottage is fully equipped with a more than adequate supply of toiletries, it is true we do not offer beach towels, children's toys nor boogie boards. We have been in operation for over 6 years...we take pride keeping offering exceptional service and maintaining our cottage in exceptional condition. We provide all of the necessary items stated on our website.

This review is a malicious fabrication with intent. We the owners have been renting our cottage for over seven years and we have accommodated well over 200 families who have rented our property...many have returned two or three times...not because they hated our accommodations and cleanliness but because they loved it. "Mr. Scott S." is with good reason an alias name who stayed at our cottage for 9 days in May 2014 . On day 7 of his stay I received an email from alias "SCOTT" claiming his son had just cut his foot on a piece of glass that was located under the dining room table. I immediately called him to inquire about the condition of his 5 year old son as I was sincerely concerned. He claimed no problems, that his SON WAS FINE...that a piece of white porcelain glass the size of a pinhead had pinched the bottom of his son's foot...he stated his son's condition was NOT an issue. THE BAD: He curiously began to complain about the boardwalk repair work that was going on down the street. He told me that this work had ruined his vacation as he and his wife could not sleep late during the morning hours. Late that morning our property and maintenance manager arrived at the cottage to survey the sounds of the neighborhood. Although there was repair work being done on the boardwalks, the work area was 6 houses away and the construction sounds could barely be heard from the front porch...our cottage is air conditioned and pretty sound proof. I responded to "Mr. Scott" informing him that we did not think the noise he claimed affected his vacation however, I offered a resolution. Not happy with our offer he threatened that he would write a bad review if I did not provide him with a large money refund. The conversation became heated as I refused to meet his demand...so I ended the discussion. THE UGLY: Upon his departure our cleaning crew arrived and found the cottage in complete filth...bags full of garbage left open in the kitchen...food & dirty dishes, all over the kitchen countertops, dirty pots & pans in the sink., the refrigerator was full of opened & cooked food, wet towels lying in shower stalls, sand everywhere, floors were scratched from the rented crib and needed re-polishing, the golf cart was left uncovered and golf cart cover was lying on the side of the house drenched in water and sand from the sprinkler system. It took the cleaning crew 3 1/2 hours to clean and prep for the next renter.
