The Happy Hut was a great stay while vacationing. The home was clean and had everything we needed. It was a wonderful place for our dog with the fenced backyard and with the option to lock the front deck. The location is great and close to the beach, stores, and restaurants. We would love to stay again and highly recommend!

Great stay! The location was convenient and the home itself was clean and very cute. It wasn’t ideal to need to call to receive the door lock, but that’s a very small item.

This place is truly perfect for what I wanted and needed. This was a bucket list trip for my dog, Jude. It is centrally located and is in a nice, quiet area. We did come off season, but I really enjoyed my time here. This house is clean & well stocked for what you need. If you need anything else, there’s plenty of stores in the area. I loved the yard for my dog. The front and back patio areas were both very nice. Plenty of room for a couple and a dog. The front patio has a gate so you can close the area off for your dog to roam freely. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend.

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy
The property was very old and the door knobs were loose and falling off making opening and closing the door difficult. The wood door also jammed and would stick. The bath tub was peeling and overall did not have a clean feel. Do to the door issues we left early… could not open or close it and actually got stuck inside the house because could not open the stuck door. Had to go out the back door and climb over a gate! Wish we knew it faced and elementary school… noisy and had lots of lights on at night. We made a poor choice. Should have stayed at a hotel.

2/10 Terrible

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
This is a poorly advertised property. The owners know the house has problems but has refused to correct them. The biggest being the door, only access to the house. I, like Lesley left early due to being locked out of property at midnight in a very hard rain. Lesley explains the door issue perfectly. The door needs to be shaved to fit the frame. The door handle and lock need to be replaced. There is no pool, washer/dryer, no closet, bathtub needs refinished or replaced, shower installed, no closet, better mattress on only bed. Biggest issue owner knew about door and did nothing.House is overpriced for condition it is in. It should not be listed for public use. Checking out early on a holiday weekend, the door issue and overcharging were major inconveniences. Do not recommend.

This is such a peaceful little place to stay, and it's well situated with a walkable distance to the beach. The hosts were responsive, quick and helpful. This was the first Vrbo rental we have stayed at, and it was a wonderful first experience.
