Had a Wonderful Time

The property was very clean. We would highly recommend it to others. Carrabelle is a lovely small town. The binder of information was very helpful. It would have helped us if information about using the TV, and AC/heating unit were included in that binder. Thanks!

Good!

The remote for the heat was missing as well as the serge protector for the TV. The shower head sprayed water all over the bathroom floor. The cleaning person did not leave an extra roll of bthroom tissue, so we had to buy our own.
