Great weekend getaway. House was perfect! The layout was great. We will definitely be returning. We have rented multiple houses in Bolivar over many years and this is by far our favorite.
We loved everything about our stay here. There is plenty of space inside and out on the decks. The house is well stocked with everything that you would need. Would stay here again for sure.
Welcoming host and perfect amenities. The weather canceled our fishing trip but the house had games & and great 2nd level party balcony where we had shelter from the wind and played games all day. Can’t wait to come back in the summer!
Perfect house for our family vacation. The rooms were super nice and clean. We absolutely loved the middle deck with the outdoor bar, kitchen and games. Not far from the beach at all. Would definitely want to stay here again
Everything about this home we absolutely loved, there were no issues or complaints at all. The home is stunning and well equipped, the location is great as it's very close to the beach access, the communication of the host is spot on. We will absolutely be staying here again.
Awesome, clean near beach house with everything you need!
Everything was excellent from cleanliness to being able to walk to the beach everyday. Lots of space our family of 5. We could have entertained at least one or two more families.
This place is exactly as it appears on the listing. Very beautiful. Very spacious and clean. We had a marvelous stay. And the host is very reponsive to questions or concerns. Perfect weekend.
The home was beautiful & very roomy. The kitchen was full of a lot of extra's, very impressed. The kids loved the toys that were on site. And the additional kitchen on the 2nd level was great. We would definitely reserve again.
Beautiful house. One of the best beach houses we have stayed in. Definitely the best stocked, shampoo, shower gel, towels, separate beach towels. Well stocked kitchen, excellent corn hole game, good grill, even multiple kid beach toys. Great air conditioner. Everything worked perfectly. The only thing I wish it had was an elevator to bring coolers up. A well deserved 5 star
The property is amazing. Our group ranged in age from 2 up. Everyone had a great time. The mezzanine deck is super. The owners responded to messages very quickly and were very gracious! We would definitely stay there again and would highly recommend it to family and friends.
Owners respond very quickly and help with anythat may a rise. Home is very well stocked with all the essentials. The rules are very plain and easy to follow to follow we had a wonderful time and would stay again We would absolutely recommend . Thank you, Anni and Alex.You'll have a wonderful beach home.
