Dirty and damaged
While the check-in process was quick and simple, upon arrival we noticed several things damaged including the frame of the lower bunk! Several of the linens and furniture were stained and while sand would be expected, the floors left the soles of our feet black! We planned to grill the first night, however, we found the LP tanks empty. There were 5, yes, FIVE EMPTY tanks. After multiple calls to the property manager, a full tank was delivered just shy of 24 hours later. The "spotty" internet was non-existent. We tried to make sure that things were clean and garbage was taken out but that was challenging as there was a theme of 2; only 2 garbage bags, 2 dishwasher pods, 2 rolls of toilet paper, etc. For a house sleeping 12 that was not adequate. Upon departure we stripped the beds as directed and discovered how disgusting some of the pillows and mattresses were! Nasty stains.

Great Beach house, but everything needs some work
This house truly was wonderful and I would stay again but it’s as though the house gets cleaned for new guests but no one is really doing the upkeep to make sure things are as they should be for the house to remain in good condition. Upon arrival the house was very clean but our socks turned black from the floors needing a deep clean. The kitchen was big for big families and very clean but all the supplies was completely disorganized which made it difficult to do meal prep. Bedrooms were a great size and beds were comfortable but the bunk beds are extremely squeaky and kept the kids awake because every time they moved the beds made a loud squeak. One of the bottom bunks the frame was completely bent and one of the queen beds the mattress dipped way down in the middle. The photos with all the kid games looked so great and was a huge let down because there were about 4 random pieces and not a single game was actually filled with all the correct pieces. I think once someone goes in and does some small repairs and organizes the house it’ll be so much better.

Perfect Beach Get Away
What a lovely house and great location for a quiet beach break! We had everything we needed for our stay. Sitting on the beautiful porch was relaxing and a perfect end to our beach days.

We had a great time. The location is perfect for viewing sunrises and sunsets on the porch, and the beach was very accessible.

Bulldog house review
We had a great family vacation at the bulldog house. It is a pet friendly home that is directly across from beach with an access walkway right cross from the house. It was great to have the whole family together and awesome location!!!!

Excellent Service
Property is as described online. Easy getting to beach with baby and children in tow. A few house keeping issues upon arrival but all were taken care of very promptly. Very courteous staff. Would recommend different furniture for living room - not fabric - fabric was dirty from previous folks. Also needs more sofa seating - possibly two sectionals since there were 14 of us.

Amazing, beautiful house
Beautiful house, looks almost brand new. Beautifully decorated. A very short walk from the beach, and you can see the gulf from the house. I thought the house only had four bedrooms, but it actually has 5! Containing 3 kings, 2 bunks (single on top, queen on bottom), and 2 twins. The gulf beach is beautifully stunning. You do see oil wells scattered out in the gulf, which is pretty much the only thing that keeps this from being the prettiest beach ever. The house was well-equipped and extremely clean. The twin I slept on was very comfortable. Highly recommend.

Nice House
The property was great and the location to the beach was very convenient. The only thing I would change is the process for connecting to the internet and the stability of the internet. Several of us tried to work during the week and it was very difficult as the internet would be connected one second and unavailable the next. If there were a personal router/password as opposed to signing in through a website, that would be a lot more convenient and probably more reliable.

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was not clean when we arrived....
We arrived at about 5pm, an hour after check-in, & the property had not been cleaned after the people staying before us. So we left the house around 7, before cleaning team even got there & were finally told at almost 9pm that we could come back. Side note.....we had 2 teenagers & 4 kids under the age of 12 who had to be entertained during all of this. They "reimbursed" our dinner while we waited on the home to be cleaned. They offered a reimbursement of up to $25 per person..... I'm still waiting for the reimbursement credit, 5 days after submitting the receipt. The house itself was nice. It's only 2 houses down from the beach access boardwalk, so we were all able to go back & forth very easily. My husband & I stayed in the downstairs bedroom & unfortunately you hear EVERY footstep upstairs. The upstairs room with the bunks were perfect for the 4 under 11 yrs old. I believe theirs was the only bedroom with a TV, which was fine for the rest of us. One thing we wished for, was hooks for swimsuits & towels. There could easily be command hooks etc on the backs of doors, more wall towel bars, etc. There was nearly no place to hang wet swimsuits. Also, the downstairs shower bar falls down if you look at it wrong. Not a super big deal, but it's a small shower/tub & I alone knocked it down 3 or 4 times per shower simply washing my hair. We definitely could not hang suits on it. There could've been more towels. We had 10 people & washed towels once or twice a day. Since there was nowhere to hang towels, they typically didn't get reused. And there were not enough wash cloths for all 10 of us???? The location & overall opinion of the house was good. We've stayed in this same neighborhood before with a different rental company. I liked the location of this one better, but our experience with the other company was better. Fortunately for this trip, the ability for all of the kids to just walk back to the house when they needed a break outweighed the other home issues (aside from the lack of initial cleaning in the midst of a pandemic).
