Great location with amazing pier and view. Pool was clean and with quiet surroundings. Property was large and covered area near water was nice.

Cleanliness could have been better . We only had 1 bath towel , floor was dirty and dusty on the beds. Staff got us towels quickly after a message . Septic was backed up . Overall the property is nice , just older style house .

Stay was great first few days grass was tall I’m sure it was do to the precious rains. Such a nice location it took days before I was even able to tell any type of maintenance issues were present nothing that denied complete rest and enjoyment of the property. But did finally notice screen door was missing the handle loose tiles when you walked in front of the fridge and loose tiles in the bathrooms. Location was great pier was perfect. Hope that we honored your contract because my boys are already making plans to go back only this time a full 7 days. Thank
We are happy to hear you enjoyed your time! We look forward to hosting for you again.

We really enjoyed the great pier and swimming pool; and would happily rent again.
We really enjoyed the great pier and swimming pool; and would happily rent again. The pier lights weren't working and the repairman came out and fixed it as well as coming back at night to make sure it was working. You really couldn't want for anything else with this property other than softer beds. The pool the pier and the pavilion were all great pluses. I met your repairman and cleaner; and they were both extremely friendly and easy to work with.The pier lights weren't working and the repairman came out and fixed it as well as coming back at night to make sure it was working.

We love this property and can't wait to come back. Only thing limiting that are the price increases. Might be too costly for us to return in the near future as we had planned to. Everyone I've worked with has been wonderful and attentive. It was easy to add an extra day to our original reservation and when there was a problem with the A/C on arrival, it was quickly taken care of.

This property worked great with the second/third bedroom in another house (patio separating them) so grandparents had some time alone if they needed it. Pier was nice; caught a few trout, kids liked the puffer fish we caught, and had some amazing sunsets.

Really had a great time.
Really had a great time. Everything was perfect. Enjoyed relaxing in the pool and fishing at night. We loved Captain Dave’s! It was so convenient and had everything we could possibly need. Fishing wasn’t too good but it was great family bonding time which is priceless. They were awesome every time I called. Very friendly and accommodating.

Overall, our family had a great time. When I called to make the reservation Destiny only asked for my card information. After reading the rental agreement I had to call back to provide number in our group and pet info to have another charge added.
Fishermans Paradise, day/night fishing, relaxing pergola just off the water, and much more!
Mother’s Day/ Bday Getaway with Family, plenty of privacy for our family of 5. Fishermans Paradise, close to bait shop, breakfast tacos, and Take out from Moon Dog Resturant. Caught 8 different species of fish, live shrimp is the bomb🎣. The HVAC was awesome, very cool at night.
We will be back....

We had an amazing time at Captain Dave's - I wanted to put a quick note in here though, that the porch area right before you enter the house itself was dirty (to be expected for what it was.. a porch) but we actually found an infestation of scorpions. To that extent, we actually cleaned / washed the structure, ground, screens, everything and I even exterminated all of the scorpions. I say this, but want to really emphasize this did not contribute to us having a bad experience. I consider that area "outdoors" and should expect to see some level of bugs, etc. I am letting you know because I would want to know if I owned that house. We had a great experience, and look forward to staying there again. ***PLEASE CONFIRM RECEIPT OF THIS NOTE*** galpinmatt83@gmail.com
