The golf cart was great perk with the rental. While beach access was close the golf cart and parking made it even easier! We really enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again! Thank you.
The host was quite accommodating, and the cottage was incredibly cozy and comfortable with all the necessary amenities! What a lovely and relaxing stay we had!
Host was very responsive. The house was just perfect for us and our two daughters. The home was very clean and maintained. Great neighborhood. Golf cart was nice to have as well. We would definately stay here again and recommend it for anyone.
Very clean! Also a very peaceful atmosphere, plus the golf cart was a nice touch being right next to the beach! I would 100% recommend this place for anyone looking for a nice beach home to vacation at.
The host was very helpful. The location was perfect & having the golf cart was a big plus. The house needs some attention on the outside. We actually had to trim the vines on front porch to sit comfortably on the swing. I wouldn’t recommend this house for anyone over 60 as the bathtubs & shower doors were unsafe for us. No grab bars, small entry into shower & the glass doors didn’t seem safe for us. Bedrooms are good size & this house is good for anyone with children or pets.
We loved the porch, neighborhood, pool, golf cart, and the most beautiful beach we have been to. Very convenient for restaurants and shopping. Hope to come again.
Had a wonderful week with our grandchildren in this cottage. My granddaughter loved the swings both on the porch and in the yard. Love the deco and location. Short drive in the golf cart to the beach. Will definitely be back next year
The house was so charming, we enjoyed our stay. The host was so nice and always very easy to contact. We loved the neighborhood and that it was pet friendly.
The property was nice. We especially enjoyed the front porch swing and sitting area in the evening to relax. The golf cart was very nice to drive back and forth to the beach.
The home was clean and the decor was so very cute. The house had all we needed. The home was a 5 minute walk to the beach. The neighborhood was so adorable and peaceful. I highly recommend. The only critique I could give is the backyard needs a landscape update.
Great location to the beach! Quality experience. New golf cart was fun and convenient. Fenced in front yard was great for our dog! Would stay here again.
