    Great place to stay. Even when the a.c broke down they were very quick to get it fixed.

    House location was great, two blocks from Seawall. The parking on the street was a battle but we got through it. Overall the house was well equipped with everything you needed. The bikes needed some work but everything checked out great. I would definitely stay here again.

    Home was clean and well outfitted for a party of 4-6 people. The beach is only two short blocks away with easy access to pedestrian crossing on Seawall Blvd. A beach capable wagon, chairs, and sand castle toys were provided in the on-property shed. Alley entrance provides convenient post-beach access to outdoor showers for both pets and people. Neighborhood was fairly quiet, especially in the evenings. There are multiple other rentals in the area so street parking spots near the home was limited. We would rent again on a future trip.

    We loved our stay here. It was clean, comfy and everything we could have hoped for. The pups loved having a fenced in yard to play in and the close walk to the beach was wonderful!

    This house was the perfect place for a long weekend. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The dogs loved the fenced back yard. The covered patio was nice since it rained most of our weekend. The beach is a short walk away and many restaurants are also close by. We will be back again.

    Place was very clean and cozy overall. We were in town for a fishing trip, and everything was just what we needed for our getaway.

    The stay was great. A little bit of rain each day but the property was minutes from a privately owned beach which we used with the dog. The property has a cute setup and was perfect for what we needed. I enjoyed the outdoor kitchen and the covered patio where I could read in the mornings as the lite rain fell. We would definitely stay here again.

    This home was in an amazing location and so easy to walk or bike anywhere! Each bed was incredibly comfy and the backyard set up was great!! The hose for the dog baths was on when we arrived and we could never figure out how to turn it all the way off. Bikes were so useful! We do wish they weren’t all flat though and 2 bikes brakes didn’t work we found out! Overall, this house was perfect and I’d definitely continue to come back!!!

    House was very clean. Great location. Easy walk to the beach. About two blocks. We had four adults and a baby and it was a great fit for us. Only has one full bathroom but we had no issue at all. There is a half bath downstairs. Very quiet. Had the power go out but the agent in charge called me right back when I called her at 6:52 am. It was only off about 30 minutes. I would highly recommend this house

    Check in process was seamless. The house was cute, well laid out and well furnished. The house is fairly worn since the initial pictures were taken. There are stains on the couch, a rip in the couch cushion, one of the arms of the patio furniture was all torn up, and the grass was fairly long. My husband’s first attempt to hang a towel on the rod in the bathroom resulted in it falling to the floor. There were many paint cans stacked on a shelf in the shed that made it difficult to get out bikes without knocking them over. However, the house itself served our purpose - to be close to the beach. It’s a very short walk, even with toddlers. The outside shower was very handy to get the sand off before going inside. We weren’t able to utilized the outdoor space as you were consumed by mosquitoes as soon as you stepped outside. The beds were super comfortable for everyone and my kids adored the bunks in the hall. I think with some deep cleaning, repairs, and swapping out some worn household items, this place could easily be a 5 again. But you can’t beat the location. Overall, we would stay again next summer.
