Hi Debbie, so happy to hear you had a great stay. You guys were wonderful and will certainly be looking forward to your return visit. Thanks again and hope see you soon.⛱️
This is the second time I have stayed at Bill's house. I do enjoy the home. we love to have both Jacuzzi and the pool. The beach is very close. we do like the convince of the golf cart available, with the amount of people that home hold a bigger golf cart would be a sweet to have as we did have to do 2 trips every time,but this wasn't bad. overall the home is great, Bill is always attentive if you need anything but usually we tried not to bother the owners. Bill even gave a tour around the house and always around the area where to park golf cart, the beach access gates and such. we always enjoy staying here. As for the host the only thing I can recommend is maybe adding some spare comforters extra in the closets in the event guest are more colder then usual or just like extra blankets. Thanks again.

Leslie it was a pleasure having you guys stay, hope you get a chance to stay at Southern Comfort again, Thanks Bill
We really enjoyed our stay at Bills house. The location was great. We used the golf cart daily to go restaurants, stores and the beach. Everything we needed was there or he was willing to bring it to us. The only downfall was the hot tub broke the first day we got there so we could not use it our entire stay. We would definitely stay here again next time we visit.

Hey guys, thanks so much for taking the opportunity to leave a review. I'm so glad you had a great time and will certainly be looking forward to your return visit to Southern Comfort.
Our family stayed here and we had the best time. The house is large enough for a family (we had 6 adults and 3 children) and has everything possibly needed for a great time. The golf cart is an added bonus and was great for traveling to and from the beach and riding around town!

Perfect getaway home!! Very spacious, we had a group of 10 (all different ages) & it was perfect for everyone! Plenty of amenities & ideal location! Bill was the greatest host, he even gave us a tour on the complimentary golf cart when we first arrived. The private beach with chairs & an umbrella were very useful & we loved the beach there. Highly recommend!

About the host
Hosted by Bill Shober
Like many, I vacationed here for years and fell in love with the water, beaches, and everything the area has to offer. Now retired and living here full time, I find myself with a great opportunity to share this incredible area with others. This is a fantastic property and I am looking forward to meeting and exceeding everyone's expectations. If Southern Comfort is booked Try, Six Palms VRBO# 2199103
Why they chose this property
Uniquely located, you are in the epicenter of it all. From this property, you have the very appealing ability to access scenic 98 to the beach or highway 98, to get you to your next adventure. Whether it's quick access to your private beach or to your favorite shopping spot, it doesn't get much easier than this. If this property is not available, I also have Six palms VRBO #2199103, or try my associate Captin Greens VRBO 746313 Just across the street.
What makes this property unique
The covered lanai and hot tub are a big plus for inclement weather. This home also offers a two-car garage with bicycles, a ping pong table, an air compressor, beach accessories, and toys for the whole family. There is a barbecue grill in the backyard with 6 lounge chairs and tables for entertaining. You will also have two chairs and an umbrella reserved for you at the beach included, in season (3-1 to 10-31) See Video https://youtube.com/watch?v=OTKvaMozU2I
