Beautifully decorated home, large deck, perfect location. Oceanfront, water just steps from the back door. Master bedroom has an amazing ocean view! Had some issues with the AC, the owner and management company were quick to respond. We will definitely rent this property again!

I wanted to take a moment to share with you our recent experience at the beach house. It has truly been a masterpiece of a stay. It had been three years since we last went on a vacation, and I must say that this was the perfect spot for us to unwind and enjoy some quality time together. The beautiful views from the beach house were absolutely stunning, and the peace and quiet we experienced were exactly what we needed to recharge and relax. If you are looking for a serene getaway with breathtaking scenery, this is the spot for you. We couldn't have asked for a better place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. We have already started raving about our stay to our family and friends, and we will definitely be recommending this wonderful beach house to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat. It truly was a memorable experience that we will cherish for years to come. Thank you once again for providing us with such a fantastic opportunity to create lasting memories. We look forward to the possibility of returning in the future.

WOW was Wow!!!

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 house was everything that it is described as. The location with the beachfront acccess was amazing. The house itself was outfitted with everything you would need and more. It was decorated as if it was someones private residence and extremely comfortable. The rooms layout allowed all the couples to have their privacy with the large living/family room allowing space for evyone to be together if we wanted to be inside instead of out on the deck which is were we spent a good portion of our time. We would definately rent this house again if our vacation plans are to be in this area. The rental company was very friendly and helpful (they even mailed us some prescription meds that were accidently left in the house). We had one maitenance issue that they scheduled to have repaired the next morning however we were able to remedy the issue on our own. The linen service was great with plenty of towels.A word of caution is that there does seem to be a pretty healthy skunk population so be sure to cover any garbage or trash bins that are left outside. And we would recomend a flashlight is you are planning to be outside after dark.

The only thing that could have improved our stay is if we could have had access to the lift. Everyone, in our party, was over 70. The lift would have made things easier.

The views from the master bedroom are as good as it gets. Our only complaint was the mosquitos being so close to the dunes. Not sure if we just caught it on at a bad time and being from Louisiana we're used to them.

Great Morning Ocean View!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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 had a great time with friends. The house had plenty of room, was clean and in a great location with perfect view of the ocean, especially in the mornings. The fire pit was an added bonus for s’mores! The only downside was the walkway to the beach could have been maintained more to not have to wade through the brush to get to the beach and maybe also increase the mosquito population. Be sure to bring bug spray!

Great trip

The house was beautiful and felt luxurious. The location couldn’t be more perfect, especially with the private walkway to the beach. The linen fee was too pricey for us, so it was a little frustrating having to bring our own sheets and make/strip the beds, but I believe linens are included in the summer months. The only other big negatives were there was not enough toilet paper or trash bags in the house, so we had to make a run to the store to get those items. But the house itself was wonderful!

Wonderful Vacation!

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: The only negative thing I have to say about this rental home was that the downstairs bunk room is very small and almost unusable by adults. It would be great for some 7-10 year old children. The owners obviously haven't tried this room out. The bottom bunk is on the floor, the middle bunk is impossible to get out of due to the built in ladder and the top bunk is very high. We placed a second mattress on the bottom bunk so we had one usuable twin bed. My sister slept on the couch. Good thing my mom is short.
