The home has obviously been effected by the recent hurricane/previous weather. The back door is warped and doesn’t close properly. The first day of our trip, we had unexpected contractors come through the gate to the backyard without our knowledge and quickly put together the bottom part of the broken deck/pier, however we were unable to the top deck as shown in the picture. Would’ve appreciated the heads up that people would be back there all day as we had children wanting to comfortably use the pool. The lower level shower barely had water pressure or hot water. Overall we had a decent stay, but we probably could’ve found something else for the price we paid.

I have booked this rental property a week in advance and it was cancelled at 6pm the day before check in time. I didn’t receive a confirmation of the cancellation nor notified about my refund until I had to call the agency. The agency mentioned to that the house was still confirmed. I had to call around to make sure if it was confirmed or cancelled due to a family vacation and all the money that was spent. There was NO COMMUNICATION between the rental agency and owner. Ruined my son’s birthday weekend and nobody helped me at all. Got my refund from the rental agency after arguing with them and got the rest of fees that I spent after again arguing with VRBO because nobody will get my refund. I will NEVER use VRBO again. Worst experience EVER.

My family and I loved staying here for our annual fishing trip. Overall the property was great with tons of room. More than expected actually. We love that we can swim while others could fish off the deck. The fridge was cool when we got there which is a plus and the ac was cool when we got there and stayed cool the whole time. My dad has knee issues so it was nice for my parents to stay in the garage apartment so he didnt have to deal with as many stairs so we were pleasantly surprised by that area. Over all we loved our stay but there is definitely some maintenance that needs to be addressed. For one, there was trash all outside but I am thinking it was from the storm surge that came though the week before. I just would have expected it to be cleaned up by then. There is a shuffle board, but no sand so noone can use it. The underwater fishing lights do not work and it seems they probably haven't for a while. The lights at the deck flicker. The fridge door is hard to close. There is a drawer that doesnt close all of the way in the kitchen and one that the handle is completely missing. The largest room which is upstairs is great but it is lacking a door which is odd. It's small things that are easily fixable but there are a lot of them. Again, overall we loved our stay.

The house was OK and needs some improvements. We called the first day as 3rd floor toilet leaking, ceiling coming apart in living/dining room area. They came out next day. The biggest problem we had was the pool. Specifically chose house for this. Chlorine level was 5 times the amount needed. We had our own tester. Called when we got there and no one even called back. Went and bought dechlorinator and corrected issue, but then pool company came and put shock and Chlorine back in. Completely messed it up again. We then had to go to Leslie's Pools to get dechlorinator again just so we could swim. No manager even called until April called on the 5th day. She was very nice and was able to refund us. We only used pool 3 out of 7 days. The owners need to drain the pool completely and start over. It was so cloudy you could not ever see the bottom. Other minor repairs... kitchen faucet needs bolted down, 2nd floor bathrrom you have to lift lid to fill all the time, downstairs bedroom smells stale and we sprayed Febreze constantly. The house is nice and beds comfortable. Just needs TLC and a pool company that knows what they are doing.

House was clean, it was a nice location. Pool was cleaned right away when called. It was nothing bad where we couldn’t use it till they came. We enjoyed the home, AC worked very well. We enjoyed the pier for fishing and swam while we were there. I wish they provided trash bags but we bought some. I would rent there again.

Inside the house needs a lot of work. The kitchen counters were infested with ants, we bought Raid but the next morning it was like we hadn’t done a thing. Cockroaches are still present in fact my granddaughters came home with them in their suitcases which didn’t make anyone happy! The stove only 1 burner worked. I feel the house just needs some major upkeep. The family had a lot of fun in the pool and all of us adults loved the view from the deck, just sad due to the ants and cockroaches it put a damper on things. Probably would never return.

The property was clean and as advertised. It was a short drive to get to any restaurants or the beach. Our only issue was the cleanliness of the pool. It was green and clouded the day we arrived. After several attempts to have someone out to clean it, they arrived on our 3 day of our stay. They did improve the look of the water enough for us to enjoy the pool for the rest of our stay; however, it was never clear enough to see the bottom of the pool. We enjoyed doing several things around town and cooking dinner back at the house. We had a wonderful stay!

Property said it sleeps 15 with 3 bathrooms. I couldn't make 15 work if I brought my own air mattresses. Basement bedroom not usable due to mold all over pillows, blankets and in drawer. Bathroom in basement also not usable due to chain continuing to come unhooked and odor. Not to mention just shier worry of having children sleeping down there with the mold. Blinds broken, couch ripped, cockroaches galore and simple basic amenities at every vacation rental I've ever stayed at weren't included for a week's worth of vacation, trash bags, salt & pepper, aluminum foil, etc. Yesterday, after all the rain the kids walked on the dock and the boards broke and a portion of the dock literally came apart and one child was hurt. I have a 4 year old out there as well, extremely unsafe. Not close to any attractions, everything is driving distance which seemed misleading as well.
