Well-equipped townhouse close to beach with trolley service available. It sleeps 8 and there were 8 beds but one child was disappointed that he couldn't sleep in the trundle bed (no mattress)

Thank you for the review. Please note that the trundle bed will be available in 2023. As you noted, there were 8 beds as advertised-we will offer the trundle as an option for the 8th bed (though the community limits rental occupancy to 8).
Great location, definitely within walking distance to everything. Loved the access to the water. Unfortunately the kayaks at the house are not accessible to renters. So we did buy a paddle board and am hooked. But it was disappointing to see kayaks there we couldn’t use. So, we had to wait to enjoy the water. The oven broke the first night and was promptly fixed the next morning. The house was clean enough. The rental is good enough. The location makes up for everything. Would rent again.

o Thank you for the review. Please note that Kayaks (complete with oars and life vests) will be provided to renters for the summer of 2023.
Everything was perfect here. But the lock on the door
New key pad locks stink. Could not get into the unit due to faulty new lock. Had to call
Property management and have them let us in. Technology can’t beat a trusty key. Other then that everything was 10/10

Thank you for the feedback. As it happens, the lock works fine. It was an internal error with the code we gave you (we forgot to set it up). We apologize for the inconvenience.
I am very particular and quirky about where I stay. Once we find a house that doesn’t make anxious, we go back every year to that house. We outgrew our first and our second one has not been rented since Covid. This is the second year we have stayed here. Definitely a yearly tradition. A few issues with maintenance and equipment, but the problems were always addressed with in the hour. When the washing machine broke, they replaced the washer and dryer with brand new equipment. Great property. Close to the beach and town but still quiet. I was comfortable allowing my older children to walk home from the beach without me. The kids loved pickleball and we enjoyed the water access. While water equipment is provided, we used our own boards and kayaks. The canal was a great place to practice SUP and the pond was calm and enjoyable. Great place for our needs.
Wonderful location - mere feet from the Bethany Loop Canal and a ten minute walk to the beach. Large pool and nice combined tennis/pickle ball court. Since the complex is only 32 units, the common area was quiet and not crowded. Enjoyed sitting on the deck next to the canal, where there was always a breeze and some welcome shade. Enjoyed the many birds that hung around the marsh and canal.The unit was pretty much as described, decent-sized kitchen, nice bedrooms and baths. Thought at first the two living rooms were a kinda weird feature but since there were six of us, it provided an opportunity to get away from one another at times. Full-sized washer and dryer nice for laundering large beach and bath towels. Only a few steps to enter the unit from front or back, welcome to my arthritic knees. Nice deck, but weather was so hot and humid we didn't use it. Grandkids enjoyed the two kayaks and the storage unit next to the deck was well-equipped.Now the negatives. The ice maker in the fridge wasn't working when we checked in but there were plenty of ice cube trays and Wilgus sent out an employee to repair it on Wednesday. The one major issue we experienced was a beeping alarm that started late Wednesday night and continued non-stop. A Wilgus agent said it was probably the sump pump and the owner would send someone out to address it. No one ever came and none of us was about to go into the crawl space to reset it. It wasn't especially loud but it was annoying.

Unfortunately, due to the heavy rains during the week the sump pump alarm was triggered. And then the sump pump alarm for the next door unit (which was unoccupied and not managed by Wilgus) was triggered shortly after. An agent from Wilgus did come to address the issue just after the renter left.

We had a good experience at this location for a family vacation. The townhouse was large enough to accommodate 5 adults and 3 children without any issues, and the community itself was nice, with a canal running directly behind.
Some minor quibbles are the fact that the listing states that the community pool is a saltwater pool when it is in fact a freshwater pool and the fact that we kept experiencing small black ants coming into the house close to the sliding glass doors. Other than that it was a good trip.
