We truly enjoyed our time at this property! The proximity to the beach was phenomenal. The huge driveway with a garage, three bathrooms, and the lovely deck made the experience easy and relaxing. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials to prepare dinner for a crowd. The view from the deck was very peaceful, all you can see is treetops. The only thing that I could think of that needed a little bit of improvement was the twin bed mattress seemed kind of ancient, and all of the pillows could’ve used some fluffing prior to our arrival. Other than that, the expectations were clear and reasonable, the home felt relaxing and was incredibly clean. It was wonderful to have the use of laundry with all of the beach days! I really hope that I get to rent this place again next year!

Thank you for the thoughtful review of Wingaerchic, Karen! We're glad the beach access, large driveway and garage, three bathrooms, deck, well-stocked kitchen, and laundry made your stay easy and relaxing. We really appreciate the note about the twin mattress and the pillows, we’ll address those with our team to ensure they’re refreshed. Happy to hear the home was clean and met your expectations. We’d love to welcome you back next year!

Great location but that’s it

Great location to the beach. However, we requested an early check-in and received three different answers over the span of two days (approved early check-in, disapproved early check-in, and approved early check-in with $75 fee). Communication was very poor with the rental agency. The beds felt like hotel cots with very cheap linens. There was an infestation of spiders in the master bedroom and bathroom.
