Jun 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Super cute Loved our stay, super cute house! Very clean, beds were comfortable. We fished in the pond at the back of the property and caught a few fish! The T.V. doesn't work good, but internet was great. Very close to honeymoon island beach and beautiful park at the end of the road you can walk to and watch the sun set. Local restaurants are great and a dunkin right around the corner. Very quiet neighborhood. We'll definitely come back. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f74b2555-4e29-47f8-b604-0e152500c84f-1750605314815.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c8678ed1-efa1-48d5-b332-62444caf1bc6-1750605306376.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sara M.
