Is a wonderful place and we are so great full to be a part of the stay, thank you so much.

Great neighborhood and quiet. The house was great. Loved looking at the canal and fishing.

The good of this property: Nice neighborhood, nice views, exterior fair, patio needs TLC, provides paddle boards, very kind neighbors If you're cooking,(which I wouldn't here), bring your own dishes, very few provided. The Bad was so disgusting my family left 1 night early. Couches are stained and smell foul. EVERY faucet inside and out leaks. Dead baby roaches throughout the house. We later see a live roach run across bath wall while my daughter is showering, later one ran across bathroom sink, and lastly what did the family in was when two run out from under the bed. DIRTY ROACHES, not TX tree roaches. After 1st sighting I went to the store bought cleaners and a mop. DEEP cleaned counters and floors and Lysol sprayed. I also had to pre clean the kitchen wall by stove and fridge that were splattered with food/grease. After we saw the roaches all the food we brought we had to put in zip lock bags and in the refrigerator and our cooler. Not all of the pictures in the post for this house are new pictures. Some are old and not what is seen in person. The owner said they've never seen the roaches, well I have pictures. No refund for cleaning supplies or stay. We had to empty all of our things in our driveway, shake out and make sure we did not bring home souvenir roaches. I have before and after pictures. I left this home cleaner than when I arrived.

We had mixed feelings about our stay: 1) The inlet water had an oil-slick with green bubbles in it the first morning so we weren’t comfortable with paddleboarding, swimming or eating the fish. I don’t think there is much the owner can do about this, but it is something to keep in mind if you were hoping to catch lunch or dinner. 2) The whole place needs a deep clean and a refresh. It's a bit like they picked the cheapest possible things to put in the house and are skimping on everything with notes everywhere about what doesn't work properly. "The bathtub has been disabled". "The refrigerator won't cool down your drinks, but will work better if there's ice in the freezer (that you buy/bring)." Our ice cream thawed in the freezer. 3) When we arrived, we couldn't find a coffee pot and there were no sheets on the beds. We messaged the owner and ended up having a midnight phone to find the coffee pot (locked in a closet). She then explained that they don't put the sheets on the beds because "then you'll know the sheets on your bed have been cleaned." Some positive notes: The owner is very responsive. The internet was fast and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The house is in a nice/safe/quiet neighborhood. The house was kept cool for us. There was a hammock in the shed downstairs, 1 charcoal grill + 1 gas, and fishing poles. All in all, I enjoyed the stay – I just think there were some unexpected quirks that caught us off guard.

The property was pleasant and relaxing . Few minor glitches … not enough pots to cook in , refrigerator wasn’t cool enough, heating element wasn’t working on dryer . Other than that the place was very nice . Had a wonderful hammock , barbecue pit , kayaks, fishing poles. It was a very nice place to stay and it was a place that we created new memories with our family

Dolphin Vista is a comfortable cottage on silts. It has a delightful view of barge traffic on the Inter-coastal Waterway. Parking is plentiful and the dock out back allows access to the canal out back. The drive-on beach access (daily fee or annual fee) is five minutes away. We got a annual pass for 12.00 and came and went as we pleased.

We only stayed two days but it was relaxing and beautiful!

Very clean and close to the beach. Definitely we will stay here again!
