Fenimore Mill 4F - Open Gulf View, Pool, Hot Tub!

This suite, Turtle Dovin', is spacious, cheery, and well lit, and has a panoramic view of the Gulf, perfect for birdwatching as huge flocks of egrets, ibis, and black skimmers fly over while we drink our morning coffee. Plus, the Fenimore Mill has plenty of parking if you're bringing a small boat on a trailer.

Loved spending the weekend there. I will do it again. The people with Pelican Reality were wonderful.

My friends and I stayed over the weekend and while I've always enjoy my stays at Finnimore, I was disappointed this trip. For starters, there were poop stains in the toilet by the front door and there was mold in the refrigerator. I suppose both could have been overlooked but then we noticed the wall above the stove was covered in dust bunnies. Small dirty things just make you start looking for bigger things, like the rat feces in the cabinets. We visited for the oyster festival but knew it was supposed to rain all weekend so we brought food to cook. Also there was not an oven mitt to be found. We used a hand towel and my friend burnt her hand over it. Also, the stove burners were super uneven. It looks like the burners had been replaced and maybe the bowls underneath them as well but the fit was awful, making them lopsided. Trying to balance pots and pans on the uneven burners was quite the hazard. I cut my toe pretty badly and could not find a pack of bandaids or a first aid kit anywhere. Luckily my friends just happened to have a few in their truck. I'm glad there was a fire extinguisher available but no first aid kit? When there's no hospital nearby? This is the first condo I've stayed in that didn't even have have a box of bandaids. All in all, we enjoyed a chance to be out of town and to fellowship with friends on the gulf. I hope for the next visitors, they don't need a can opener, oven mitts, a first aid kit, or need to cook on crooked stove burners.

Property location was perfect for biking all over town and within walking distance to shops. Kayaks could easily be stored safely and launched nearby. A few items such as shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, and coffee were not provided upon arrival to the rental, but nothing that stopped us from having a great time. Realtors have been informed so those can be provided for future guests. It was a fantastic weekend overall.
