The house was spectacular - every detail was considered, every item we might need was already there. There was a slight repair issue and within minutes of texting the owner, there was a plan in place with the repair happening the next day. Incredible spot, incredible service, we will be back!!!

We loved our stay, the views are wonderful. Our kids loved the heated pool as some days in March get a bit chilly. We also spent everyday at the beach enjoying the soft beautiful sand.

This house is the perfect retreat for one or more families with kids and/or dogs. It looks small from the outside but it’s spacious inside with 5 bedrooms. Large great room with huge dining table and chef’s kitchen. Each bedroom has its own ensuite bath. Two masters with gulf views and access to the deck/pool. The pool is heated and only 4 feet deep. Perfect for lounging. The beach was not crowded and the weather perfect the entire week. The host Mare was very responsive and accommodating. The house was very clean, nicely decorated, and welcoming. Something for everyone whether you like fishing, playing games or just doing nothing and chilling out. The bonus for us was the Tesla charger since we drove from Texas. Highly recommend Hunt’s restaurant for fresh local seafood. The only minor inconvenience was construction next door but it was not very loud and the workers were not intrusive.

Absolutely gorgeous home. What sold us on the home was how close it was to the water, the elevator, and flat board walk for our senior dog to easily get to the beach. Mare was amazing to work with and we are so appreciative she shared her home with us. Check in/out was a breeze, no issues whatsoever, definitely recommend.

The view from the porch and pool deck was amazing. The short walk to the beach was awesome. We loved the kitchen and coffee bar. We had almost everything we needed. It was a great place for my handicapped sister.

Perfect Beach Stay!

This property was amazing! The location was fantastic. We loved having private access to the beach and it was a quick walk/bike ride to the trading post. The house is beautiful and has everything you could want. Finding an accessible house that also allows pets is a rare find and this met all of our needs. We can wait to visit again!
