Aug 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Beach Front Vacation We had an amazing time being so close to the beach. It’s the best place we’ve stayed so far in the 14 years we’ve been here. The house was so cute, comfortable and homey. Close to other things we wanted to do and to restaurants. Everything about renting and checking in and out was so easy. We’ll definitely rent the same house next year. The only thing I can think of to change is to have a queen bed in all bedrooms. I was looking forward to a particular room, but it was a double. Other than that, perfect! (Not a big deal obviously) Thank you so much for the ability to have such a wonderful time. Looking SO forward to next year! ##### Natalie R.

Oct 18, 2020 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, communication #### Great location .... house very uncared for Terrible mattresses and the house was grimy & dirty.... kitchen and baths cleaned and house broom swept. Food gunk under a dresser and 1/2 “ dust on many surfaces. A/C barely functional. A few pop in screens would have helped. We LOVED this location and would return every year - but mattresses and inadequate cleaning are deal breakers ##### Geraldine M. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Kelli B. Jun 23, 2020 Liked: Location Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Amazing view! We ran into some issues at check in with the rental property concerning the keys and linens. We did get everything taken care of by the second day. The view was amazing and the house was perfect for our needs. The house need minor upkeep but overall, it was a great week. ##### Kelli B.
