Loved it
Loved this home, super clean & organized and quiet, we even enjoyed our pet being there as it was pet friendly, what I didn’t not like was that there was only 1 tv, so if the kids wanted to watch tv they all had to watch the same thing in the living room only. There is no other TVs in the room if we wanted to watch tv in the rooms

Best Place to Stay
We have stayed in the area several times, but this was the nicest house we have stayed at so far. Very clean, great location and just a beautiful home. The view was incredible. We watched the sun rise everyday. The beach is literally in the back yard. The family all agree, this was the best trip ever. Thank you for a great experience.

We had the BEST time!
I can’t say enough great things about this property! We had the most amazing time. Everything was very well thought out - the kitchen had everything we needed, the beds were comfy, & there were plenty of towels & blankets for everyone. Even little additions like having enough hooks for wet towels were thought of. The views were spectacular & we really enjoyed our mornings on the porch. Cathy & Eric are wonderful, responsive hosts & I’d would love to stay at this property again!

Great stay in Gilchrist
The house is really nice. Only problem is we found a very strong fish smell in both fridge and freezer that prevented us to store anything. It needs to be addressed.

My family and I had an amazing stay here. Thank you for being so flexible with us as we were traveling to this location. The house is in great shape, and I loved being right next to the water. Amazing sunrises and sunsets. I can’t wait to come back and do it again!

The home is clean and even better than pictures show. The kitchen is stocked with pans that are in great shape and plenty of dishes. Beds are comfortable and plenty of big full bath towels.

Property was very clean. We did not plan on cooking, however there were no spices, plastic wrap or any pantry items. The shower head fell off in the hall bathroom. The shower head was not a screw on, but we did manage to push it back on.
We did enjoy our stay and would recommend the house.

Best ocean view!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house is light, bright and open. It also has the most amazing porch where spent every morning having a cup of coffee watching the sun rise. Checking in and out was easy, and the owners were very prompt and responsive handling a minor hiccup with the TV. Definitely recommend! You won’t be disappointed:-)

Gilchrist Getaway
The beach house was exactly what we needed. It was well anointed with plenty of space, linens, and towels and was very clean. We had plenty of supplies for laundry as well. The kitchen had everything we needed in terms of pots, pans, and dishware. I would bring additional paper products (paper towels/Kleenex), and if you are planning to do any extensive cooking, bring your own spices. Thank you for a great weekend!
