Round House on the bay

We enjoyed our stay at the round house. The view was great. It could have been much better if there was comfortable seating on the deck to sit and enjoy the view. The outdoor furniture is worn and no comfortable seating anywhere outside. The beds were okay but not great. The house was clean and for the most part in good condition. We did have to call maintenance and they came out very quickly. The Round House is a nice place to stay if you enjoy being out away from everything. The main downfall is the stairs. It is not good for elderly or disabled. There is only one neighbor and the house is very close. Otherwise, nice place.

Roundhouse Retreat

The property was Beautiful! So relaxing to be there. Pros: Plenty of room - large rooms - not cramped Large kitchen. We never ran into each other while cooking Plenty of cooking utensils Large living/dining area. This was so nice Flooring is easy to clean There is a nice large dust mop for the large areas Great pier for fishing A great blue heron was a daily visitor Large outside area to explore the habitat Plenty of outside seating House was clean except for the dog hairs in the placemats The house is structurally sound. Plenty of bath towels Great views in every room Plenty of silverware PLENTY of pretty plates/bowls. This was great since I don't prefer paper plates Plenty of pillows Washer/dryer worked great. We did 2-3 loads per day Fishing all you want. Cons: Biggest Con: No safe swimming!! Somehow, I didn't see that there are alligators and sharks near the shore. Since I rented this place so my grandsons could swim any time they wanted, this was a huge disappointment. Oven doesn't heat accurately - AT ALL. I cooked a pan of brownies for 1 1/2 hours and they still weren't done. Should have taken 20 minutes. Oven door doesn't shut all the way unless you stand there and hold it closed Pans for cooking are in horrible shape. The only decent ones were a dutch oven, a stock pot, and a 1 quart sauce pan. Beds are SO squeaky! Mattresses need to be replaced. The flooring in the house is a bit weird. I'm sure the plan was a cheap total replacement but you get what you pay for. The flooring is curling some. Some guest didn't put the water pad up correctly and it is moldy The posts in the water near the pier prohibited successful fishing out towards the bay since the fishing lines could get wrapped around the posts when reeling in a fish. You should cut those off. Bottom line: We won't be returning.

Round house retreat

I took my kids and grandkids. It was a great time swimming and relaxing. We liked the privacy with this property. It was also close to a lot of activities. Fun time by all.
