Wild horses roam the area as well as fox, deer, and lots of waterfowl on the sound.

It was simply amazing. We were stuck on the porch once waiting to go to dinner, but who can complain when the back up is the main attraction. Woke up on our last day to have more behind the house. We saw horses everyday, and grab some nice walks on the beach as well as fun in the sun.

House was not cleaned! Toilet clogged!

We arrived at the 4 pm check-in time to a house that was not cleaned following the previous guests stay. Even the toilet was clogged. Management company called Brindley Beach said the cleaning company truck broke down but nobody called to let us know. We had to wait into the night for the house to be cleaned. They also said the horse manure at the front door was not their problem. Great house but the management company was terrible!
