Good location, not jammed in between houses. Would like to give 5 stars but the outdoor lighting was poor, especially the front under the deck. Also the house had a disagreeable odor that stayed after we opened all the doors snd windows. There were 5 air fresheners throughout the house. So they know. Good floor plan and pet friendly for 150 pet fee.

Loved the location! Short walk to the beach. My kids (10 & 5) brought their scooters and parked them in the golf cart parking at the public access parking when we went to the beach daily. They left them there the entire day and no one bothered them. LOVED the location. Plenty of privacy at the house and a cute, safe neighborhood to walk around! Shonna was AMAZING and very responsive the whole trip. The house was clean but HOLY MOTH BALLS- the moth ball smell is overwhelming, especially the first day. I opened the doors trying to air out the house because as my daughter said- “it stanked”.Overall, we had a great experience and hope to return!

Best part about this house: Location!! Such a close walk to the beach. The neighborhood is quiet and cute! Private beach access is wonderful!Things I didn’t love: The smell…mothballs. Overpowering and almost unbearable. There is nothing “homey” about this house. It’s just a house. There are loose tiles on the kitchen floor. Some of the drawers in the kitchen you can’t even open bc the dryer is in the way. Most of the cabinets don’t close all the way. The outdoor shower needs new wood..honestly the deck needs some new wood too. There was no chair swing like in the pictures.All in all we had a great vacation but the house itself could use a little work.

Great location! Easy check in process. It was a little to far to walk to the beach with a 4 year old and my husband with a back injury but we rented a golf cart that was delivered to us within an hour. That made it perfect.
