My overall experience at the property was 5 stars. I was here on a bachelorette trip, 11 guests, house was very clean and we had plenty of room and lots of amenities to enjoy. The owner even had a gift for us!I will just add a note to anyone looking to spend a fun weekend here that the neighbors are unfortunately sensitive to any kind of noise. 3 of us were in the pool at 10pm (before quiet hours started) on a Saturday night and owners next door threatened calling the cops because of 3 people enjoying the outside. When the rest of us came back to the rental from being out, there were even 2 ladies trying to take pictures of our car, I assume because they thought we were having extra people, however it was just the other registered 8 of us girls arriving back home. Im not taking off any stars because this isn't the owners fault and they were very considerate during this. However I want any future guests to be aware of this issue as is seems the neighbors have an issue with the property being a rental for a fun weekend getaway.

Hi Alyssa!
Thank you so much for your review and for your kind words about the home. We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay, the amenities, and the welcome gift.
We’re also very sorry for the inconvenience caused by the neighbor situation. We understand how uncomfortable that must have felt. We have since addressed it, and to clarify, those neighbors are tenants as well, not the property owners. The owner has already spoken with them to help prevent this from happening again in the future.
Thank you again for your understanding, and we truly appreciate you staying with us. We’d love to host you again.
