I loved this Townhouse

I have stayed in GS several times, this was my favorite, 2 beds up with 2 full baths and a half bath downstairs. The fishing pier with the cleaning station came in handy when my grandson caught his huge red snapper! Mark was a great host, responded to my questions, we loved the place and hope to be back next year!

We had an amazing time. Mark was great and super helpful. The place has been updated. And beautiful done. The beach is just a short walk across the street. The traffic down toward the condo was not busy. So it was easy to cross. Thank you mark

Construction

Overall the stay was okay. I know it would’ve been better if we were there a different week. I was unaware they would be doing roof work on the condo while we were there. Several other people had gotten flat tires while there from nails left on the ground by workers. Luckily we didn’t that I know of. The workers were up and at it 7am every morning with sledgehammers on the roof and big cranes that made quite the noise. Condo also had tons of ants. I don’t know if the owner was aware of this or not before our stay. Otherwise not a far walk from the beach and the back dock was nice. Just wish we knew there would be construction work all week on not only our condo but everyone’s in the complex.

We are very sorry for any inconvenience from the Roofing project. We only found out the schedule just prior to your stay as issues were recently discovered and our Insurance company required immediate replacement. The project was delayed slightly due to weather but is scheduled to be completed this weekend. We have not had an ant problem reported in the past and will address it immediately. We would love to have you back again so please reach out. Please reach out directly to us should you wish to stay with us again.
