Wonderful stay

We chose this property to celebrate our daughter’s sweet 16 and it was perfect! The girls had such a wonderful time- they were able to walk to shopping and the beach! The accommodations were perfect! Everyone had their own bed and there was room to spread out. The grounds were so nice- we played cornhole and sat on the swings enjoying the beautiful scenery. Thank you for a wonderful time!

Beautiful Togetherness

The location of home is ideal for walking to shops/bars/restaurants. The front porch was heavenly to sit and relax. The decor was beautiful and exactly what you would expect in an old southern home. Unfortunately with it being an older home, the doors don’t close and the acoustics are not ideal. Most rooms connect to other rooms so privacy is minimal. Expect to hear EVERYTHING!

Beautiful Old Towne home

This house is interesting. It’s obviously well loved and full of what I presume are family antiques. Sadly, the ac for 3 of the bedrooms wasn’t working and they stayed sweltering! Our host was amazing and responded quickly and efficiently to have it fixed! On a Saturday!! Mattress toppers dint fit the antique beds and seriously, I fell off!! Great house for 4-6 people!

Surprise 40th Birthday Werkend

I booked the Harbor House for my husband’s 40th birthday as a surprise. I messaged the property manager about 3 weeks before check in for recommendations for cake and balloons. I was expecting to have to pick something up but they had contacts for people to drop off directly to the property prior to check in. Our balloon contact fell through 2 days prior to check in but they put some balloons in the house so we would have something! I felt like we had such a great experience even before check in! There was an issue with a new cable an internet provider when we got there so someone brought us a hot spot within an hour. Top notch service and communication that you definitely would never get staying at a big complex. Will definitely stay here again!

Fabulous Home and Location!

The home was perfect for our family vacation! The location couldn’t have been better. Across the street from the beach for our 3 year old granddaughter, walking distance from bars and restaurants for our 29 year old daughter and boyfriend and walking distance for shopping! Very well stocked and very comfortable.

Perfect location! This house is actually so cool. It's got room for lots of people and stocked with anything and everything you might need. The front porch is so nice. We all sat there throughout our stay to visit, drink coffee, or people watch. The back space is set up for grilling and it's very roomy and has several swings. The only downside to staying here was that there are only 2 full bathrooms and one of them is in a bedroom so you are walking into someones space to shower or use the bathroom when the other one is being used. There's a half bath in the back bedroom too but again, it's walking through someone's room if you want to use it. Other than scheduling showers for everyone, its really a perfect house. We walked to the beach, to the boat dock where we kept our boat,and to the bars and resteraunts. Wonderful rental property for a group stay!

A group of 11 senior ladies have a tradition of twice yearly booking a place on the Gulf Coast for a few days of fun. This place met our needs and we liked the fact there were not lots of stairs to climb as in many of the other places. The location was great and the owners were very helpful.
