My family have rented several beach houses over the past 5 years, we are not picky. Location is key for us and this was a great location for us! We rent the beach houses to be outside not inside. I gave a 4 star for my experience. This house was large in our opinion, it accommodated all of our guest well for the most part. Upon arrival check in instructions are clear, the carpet had stains, some sugar ants on the counter, someone had turned the refrigerator down to two so it took over 24 hours to get our food cold. We were worried about getting sick if the food got to hot but we turned it up and our food got cold eventually and we didn't die! The teens loved the soccer table behind the couch. The lights in the guest room was little annoying, when you use the remote to turn on the light it turns off the other guest bedroom light. There's a drawer in the kitchen that falls out. The out door furniture on the second floor deck is old and falling apart, the lounge chair's have a bottom cushion but not a back cushion. The umbrella for that table is broken. (This is probably the only thing that bothered me because we like to eat outside and hang outside). They had a charcoal grill but really small on would not accommodate our needs. The fishing was not great but a local said fishing hasn't been the same since the freeze.(like I said we have rented several beach house after the freeze and we also did not catch many fish in the canals). Fishing at the beach was great! We spent most of our time outside in the water or fishing. Swimming in the canals was a big hit with the kiddos. This place could use a little updating of the couches, fixing of the cabinets, and outside furniture, possibly some more seating downstairs, maybe a bigger grill.
This review is only for future renters. The inside was not a huge deal to me, its the outside that matters to us. We were not in the house much. We enjoyed our time here.
