Loved my stay here! Cozy house, peaceful neighborhood and a great pool! Beds were comfy and they provided plenty of towels which was a lifesaver. Would definitely stay again.

The pool was amazing and the overall atmosphere was pretty family friendly. House and area was pretty clean. Only complaint is the downstairs room was very hot. We ended up buying some fans to stay cool in the downstairs area.

I would only recommend to take extra trash bags specially if is a big group.The downstairs ace it did cool but I don’t think is big enough for the room it stay 78 degrees the room is pretty big and we only had two people stay in there. Pool was clean n it got maintenance early morning it was very clean.

It was almost identical to my property out of town
Our camping trip was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances so a few of us GS moms decided to take the girls on a little beach getaway. The house was clean and well stocked with all of the essentials. The checkin process was super easy and everything was well communicated. We all had a great time and would definitely stay here again.

Thanks for the 5-star review! So glad you had a great time staying with us.
Very easy booking process, the property is very close to the beach it’s about a couple blocks away…very nice large pool, they provided towels, my favorite part was the outdoor fire pit they do not provide fire logs make sure to take your own logs if you are planning on using it also if you are going to do any cooking make sure to take your own seasonings they only had pepper and onion powder… all and all it was a great stay.

We had a nice weekend. The pool was very nice. A few things need to be addressed. The downstairs is very hot and the window ac does not keep the room cool. The lights were always dim in the whole house. If you used certain appliances the lights flickered or got brighter. Might need to look into a second electrical panel to take some of the load off of the one that is existing. Not sure it’s a repeat stay location.

We enjoyed our stay overall. The pool was fantastic, and it is a very dog friendly space. The listing mentioned and showed games, but we didn't see them. We did have an issue with the smoke detectors. The batteries went out in 2 of them in the middle of the night. I contacted the property manager via emails at around 4:30AM, and they promptly responded. No resolution was made, but the attempt was helpful. Eventually the intermittent beeping stopped, and we were able the get a bit more sleep.
We had a great time at the House. It was very clean and we loved hanging out by the pool and fire pit. I would stay there again on my next trip.
