Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this home. The views were fantastic, and the proximity to the beach was awesome. The main area of the home was perfect for being together since the kitchen, dining, and living were all in one open area. Our senior dogs really benefitted from the elevator, and we loved the shaded downstairs area with swing and chairs for the warm afternoon sun. Would 100% stay here again, and look forward to a return visit. The Cobb team was also very responsive and it was cool to get a welcome gift from them - unexpected sweet surprise. Thanks for hosting us, we loved our stay!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I would love to say something negative about this house but it would be a lie. My wife and I stayed here for two weeks and this is probably the nicest house we have stayed at and we have stayed at a lot. Love the downstairs area, loved loved loved the elevator. Having a gas stovetop was the best. The kitchen was the first house we have ever stayed in that had decent pots, pans and utensils. This will be the house we will choose every time we come back to Bolivar. Thank you owner for knowing how to present a rental house and thank you for making it available.

A Home To Remember!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have rented this home before. We chose it because of the perfect location, beach view, fenced yard, beauty of the home, and elevator. The kitchen is well stocked! We cooked! Had everything we needed.The negatives of this stay are the oven was pulled away from the wall when we arrived. Being gas, we were nervous our entire stay. Cobb sent someone over as soon as we called, but all involved acted like they didn’t know why it was pulled out. The sink downstairs was filthy. Never cleaned. And there seemed to be pooled water/oil close to the elevator entrance. That area never dried. Also, the Master could use a new mattress!Having said that, we will rent again. The home is so nice. The beach view is amazing, the location is a very short walk to the beach. You won’t be disappointed!

Brought back memories and we all fun. The kitchen was outstanding. I don't use the dishes and cookware in the houses we rent normally, but I did at Summer Salt and they had EVERYTHING I could possibly need plus. The view was great. The outside furniture is set up so that everyone gets an excellent view and everyone can talk. I can't say enough. Cheyenne nailed it as always. She's the best. Super helpful and always pleasant to talk to. The pirate parrots were pretty awesome.

Summer Salt Delivers Again

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our third time renting Summer Salt through Cobb Real Estate and it was the best stay yet. We had many choices of rentals during our week on Crystal Beach, and I'm so glad we chose Summer Salt again. It was like coming home. The house is in great shape and I was pleased to see that beach chairs, corn hole and other beach games were still there. The wifi worked perfectly for those in our party who were working remotely. There's ample seating on the gorgeous deck either in shade or sun; and the close proximity to the beach made getting on the sand a snap. The kitchen is better stocked than mine at home and the large mud room with washer and dryer (and elevator) is a bonus. The house was clean and inviting and the provided linens were good quality, crisp and fresh. Sunrise from the deck was spectacular each morning and our sunset rides along the beach in our rented cart from West Canal Beach Buggies were the perfect way to end the day. Summer Salt has become "our" house in Crystal Beach. Can't wait to come again.

We love this house!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We LOVE Summer Salt! The house is perfect for our family & the location is perfect. The big fenced yard and elevator is a BIG plus for our kids, dogs and me with limited mobility. The house wasn’t as clean inside as in the past, but it was acceptable. The kitchen is so well stocked and very appreciated. The elevator had some issues, which was a problem for me since I rely on it. Luckily it wasn’t until the last night that it quit and we had to lock the doors on it. That gave me real problems on loading out day, but luckily I have a very helpful daughter. Having the elevator is the only way I can go to the beach for a week so I’m certainly not unhappy. Really can’t say enough good things about this house AND Cobb Realty. They are always a pleasure and so easy to work with. Look forward to seeing the beach again soon!
