Jun 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great place We loved our week here! Very convenient location, close enough to the beach, and also a quiet neighborhood. The house had everything we needed. Also very pet friendly. Would definitely stay here again! ##### Elizabeth L. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Justin W. Aug 31, 2024 Liked: Check-in Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, listing accuracy #### Horrible experience Upon our arrival, we were welcomed with several piles of dog poop that had not been picked up by previous renter. There was no scooper or apparatus on site so we did our best pick up with bags so our dogs wouldn’t be drawn to it. Once we got to the front door, the paint peeling off onto the floor wasn’t the greatest look & the window to the porch was covered in “lick marks” from dogs. The front porch is nice in the early morning/late evening but in need of serious cleaning. Once settled we realized that there wasn’t a Roku remote like on all of the other tvs (presumably lost) so the only service available was Netflix.There was an ant trap in one window sill which we quickly realized ants were around all of the windows & food couldn’t be kept on a counter near them. We kept anything like that on the dining room table to keep it away from the ants. Both showers were clogged so you stand in a pool of dirty water to shower & we didn’t find that out until that time came. The guest tub was due to hair never being cleaned from drain & master we assume was from sand over time. AC went out on 2nd day & it took 8 hours to get a window unit. Not until the next mid-day & 3 more units did we start to get the house to cool. We went the whole week in late August without proper AC & the units were impossible to hear tv’s & sleep with due to their noise. Our trip sucked & we happily left a day early. 4 calls & 1 office visit was made during the week so this isn’t just an invalidated rant ##### Justin W.
