Our unit had a great view of the harbor from the living room and front/back decks. Overall, it was nice and suited our needs for a long weekend- getaway. Location is close to beach and shops. I would stay there again!

Not Clean
Location is wonderful, but the place simply wasn’t very clean. Floors were sticky, found roaches in multiple rooms, and had to leave the property half way through our stay and find a hotel. Property management refunded my cleaning fee but did not credit me for the nights remaining after I left.
Loved the big open rooms upstairs and the outdoor decks on both sides with views of the dunes and the harbor. Exactly as pictured, and had a great stay overall. The only downside was the level of clean, comfort, and care put into the place. There was still sand when we arrived, and the bottom of our feet were dirty from walking around after check in. Came across some clumps of hair left on the towels from the dryer, which also were a little stiff and thin. Toilet paper too. The blinds were all a bit wonky, and the handle to the sliding glass door was lying on a table outside. Nothing that couldn’t be overlooked, but if feeling clean and cozy is important to you, not the most ideal choice.

10 out of 10 wouldn’t recommend
Needs a good cleaning, floors were nasty. Furniture was heavily stained. Fridge/freezer didn’t work, had to bring in a used one…13 hours later, our food went bad. The air didn’t work, took 20 hours to get it fixed, it was 88° in the unit. The short walk to the public beach is actually a quarter mile across the dunes, and we couldn’t use the area, we were told it was private for a beach club that the guests were boated in. OKAY. More walking to set up. Someone called and said my car was towed, that it was $87 to get out. Packed up and walked back, it indeed wasn’t my car! I appreciate that they fixed everything but, somehow the ball was dropped and we suffered the consequences.

Amanda, We are sorry that you experienced so many issues during your stay. In reviewing your reservation, we can see that both the refrigerator and the A/C went out. We understand how frustrating it would be to start your vacation this way and we are truly sorry. This is not the experience we wish to provide. Our records indicate that the A/C was fixed and a new refrigerator was delivered to you less than 24 hours after your bringing these issues to our attention. We would like you to know that the owner has purchased a new refrigerator. The beach is just steps away from this unit so we do not understand why you had difficulty accessing the beach. While your vacation did get off to a rough start, we hope the remainder was pleasant and you had a safe trip home.
Property was fine for our group of seven. Could use some minor updates but overall very satisfied. Parking was inconvenient, but we did know it was going to be a problem because we had 3 cars.
It was a very nice place not a great beach location but going to the Beach s was just a short drive
I will rent from you again but I have a bad knee and want something without stairs
