Sweet Getaway
Pros: clean house, wrap-around porch and balcony, on the water which was lit up by the bridge at night, beautiful kitchen and spacious bathrooms, smart tvs, they had everything we could possibly need for a short stay, pet friendly, offered early and late check in, good communication, and convenient walk to a 7-11 for odds and ends. Cons: parking was a little tight for two SUVs, vents upstairs need to be cleaned, and sharp nettles in the yard near the beach area so bring water shoes. We had a fun and lovely time! Thank you so much!

Host Not Interested in State of Property or Comfort of Guests
The GOOD- 4 bathrooms, all bedrooms have ensuites, water pressure/temperature awesome. Location convenient to grocery store, short drive to beaches. The BAD- Kitchen ill stocked- 5 small plates, 2 dinner plates, 2 bowls. Drinking glasses included a couple of mason jars and a solo cup. There were ants ALL OVER the kitchen. I reported the issue, suggested a good ant bait and the owner did come over the second day and provide that bait and the ants were reduced 2 days. Pictures show 4 barstools only 3 and 1 was broken. Couches are torn/dirty. Internet out the entire stay, host tried to say that there was a recent electrical storm, however a laminated instruction manual for internet troubleshooting advised guests to call the internet company directly before messaging host. Beds uncomfortable, towels did not include hand towels and were ratty, walls had lots of holes. No way this property is professionally cleaned- visible dirt/mold around AC vents, grease staining on kitchen ceiling, dirt/cobwebs in corners, house was musty smelling, all of the pillows and mattress covers are stained. The DANGEROUS- upstairs banisters extremely loose, exposed nails on dock/disrepair, fire detector by kitchen inoperable, cut foot on edge of cracked floor tiles. I let the host know about the internet and ants, the other issues were so numerous and obvious I did not bother even mentioning.

Nice home with lots of room. The kitchen was well equipped. It was nice having an extra living room area for the kids. Everyone had their own bedroom. The kids enjoyed fishing from the private beach area. The neighborhood was quite. We spent time at the Ocean View beach which is a mile from the house. We greatly enjoyed it & it wasn't crowded at all. Overall me & my family will definitely be back to the area again in the near future!

Family Getaway
The property was spacious and accommodating for our family. We were disappointed with some of the repairs that are needed. My adult son stepped on a loose board on the dock and almost fell in the water. Several tiles on the floor were damaged. The downstairs bathroom door had a cracked in it. The rails on the upstairs porch are loose in some areas. The sliding screen doors downstairs were not functioning properly. In addition, there was a ant problem and I saw mice on at least 3 different occasions. I did contact the owner regarding the issue with pests and they offered to come and bring traps to put down for the mice but did not respond regarding the ant issue. Due to the pest issue and maintenance that was not completed on the property, we will not book this property again.

Convenient Location
The house is great overall. There were a few small things that we noticed needed repair like the toilet paper holder in the bathroom downstairs. There are a lot of doors in this house so if you have smaller children that are able to open doors it could be an issue. We loved having the water right out back and the bedrooms were huge. The best plus is each bedroom has a bath. That was probably my favorite part. This was a great house for what we needed for the weekend.

The house is ok.
Overall is ok. The kitchen counter is too high to access. Don’t feel it is waterfront house since the water is a little bit far away.
