Charly R.

Over all, the house was large enough for 3 families. Close to beach, ocean views are beautiful so giving it a 3, but it needs some work to say the least! cons: the house is old so very out dated. We had large families and cooked every night. The stove only has 2 working burners, and 1 of those 2 didnt get very hot. My husband had to fix the other one to make it work. The basic appliances were horrible ( dont try using the can opener, not possible!) There we ants in every nook and cranny of the house. All over the bathroom and kitchen counters. The microwave was old so even trying to just warm things up took a massive amount of time. There were huge holes in the walls with pictures to cover them upWe contacted the host a few days prior that we would have a registered support animal as a courtesy and was told we needed to call to figure that out because they dont allow pets because of the cleaning fees they incur. Understand animals are not accepted, but again this is a registered support dog for medical reasons. We didnt call to discuss because were mind blown to get that response.Downstairs: The lights (floresent lights!!) Were on the same switch as the fans. To turn the fan on the bright light HAD TO STAT ON. Its Texas, its HOT! Creepy part...there is a room with a lock, that didnt lock. Opened the door to find a TV showing multiple recordings of the cameras around the house!!! Understand its for security, but this was creepy!Unfortunately, we wont be going back

Wonderful and Relaxing Stay

We were there for the Humane Society Spring fundraiser as part of the decorating committee. The house was perfect as a work space and as a relaxing reward. Wonderful for coffee in the morning out on the deck and a glass of wine in the evening. Even though we were working, we were able to have fun as well!

Family Christmas

Our family group of 8 had a fantastic stay at this property. There was plenty of sleeping and bath space and multiple gathering areas both indoors and outdoors. We especially enjoyed the downstairs deck area where we watched football, played cornhole, fished, crabbed, kayaked, paddle boarded, and enjoyed cocktails every evening. Dinners on the upper deck were amazing with more than enough tables and chairs and easy access to the kitchen. The kitchen is large and well equipped. The upper observation deck offered amazing views and photo opportunities. The area is walkable and close to shopping and recreation. The owners were very responsive and helpful. We highly recommend and can't wait to go back!

This property was perfect for our purposes. We needed a place to gather for a lunch for my Dad who passed away a few months back.

Jinny’s Weekend

A get together for our family to share our Jinny’s love for family, cooking, the ocean and fishing . Our group of 13 ages ranged from 77 to 8 and our stay was wonderful. The paddle boards kayaks and Lilly pad were a hit and not just for the kids. The kitchen and main living area was just what we needed for gatherings and cooking with the Beautiful bay view. The outdoor living area was perfect as well and we hung out and grilled while some fished and watched the outside TV or played in the water. I am a runner and enjoyed this peaceful and beautiful area along the bay during my morning jog. Everyone enjoyed our stay!

Another 5 Star Stay!

We had another incredible stay. This time over the 4th of July. Watched the awesome Wendell Family fireworks from the roof top deck! This house will not disappoint! Incredibly clean, and owners were once again very responsive to any questions we had come up. The floor plan is perfect for the big kids to have the downstairs and the adults get the upstairs. They also provide plenty of alternative activities, if you need a break from the outdoors or maybe forced to come in inside due to weatherThanks again!!!!

A great stay

My wife and I have 3 sons who are married. Two of them have children for a total of 6 ranging from infant to 10 yrs old. There was plenty of room. We cooked in the kitchen that was supplied with all necessary utensils plus. The kayaks and all swimming gear needed to swim in the canal for the kids (and some adults), an outdoor tv under the upper deck made the stay memorable. Would definitely stay there again.
