    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed the house and our stay. The fenced-in yard was fantastic for our dog to run around, which was a big plus for us. The house was clean, very comfortable, and felt welcoming throughout our visit.The only suggestions we have are minor. Some of the furniture is a bit dated, and the living room couch could use replacing—it sinks noticeably on the right side when sitting and watching TV. The back porch sofa could also be repaired or replaced, as several cushions on one side sank quite a bit, making it difficult to stand up from the couch. The back porch itself was great; however, during a couple of rainy days, clogged gutters caused water to leak onto the covered deck area while we were sitting at the table playing games. A simple gutter cleaning would likely resolve this.Additionally, some of the online photos could be updated. The listing currently shows only one TV, but there are actually two—a large TV mounted above the fireplace mantel and another in the back bedroom.Overall, it was a great stay, and we’re really looking forward to staying here again in the future.

    This house was wonderful - I loved being able to walk my dog to the beach in less than 10 minutes. Also the house is all on one level with step-free access so it was perfect for my senior father to move throughout. The neighborhood is quiet and all the furnishings were comfortable. I would definitely recommend Leaping Lizard cottage.

    First family trip that included our “grand” pups and had an amazing time. House was as listed but with some TV upgrades which we were thankful for since we booked for opening day of college football. Very close to beach and downtown area of the island. Agree with several comments from other reviews that state it would be nice to have a outdoor water hose in the front to clean off any sand instead of tracking thru home and the outlets could definitely use an upgrade as most all items plugged in were very loose and easily detached. All in all the property was perfect for our family as we hosted our first annual oyster roast. Would book this property again.

    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 loved being able to bike anywhere we wanted to go, and the ac worked well. Plenty of stocked things you may need like an extra cot for a kid and books/puzzles. It had all the kitchen stuff we needed also. The guest shower does not get very hot and the toilet does not flush well. Outlets were also pretty worn out.

    The house had almost everything a family would need, such as kitchen appliances and cooking needs, comfortable beds, a place for pets, shovels for children...It was a place where we could feel at home.

    The location is great. Walking distance to the beach was perfect. The backyard area was quiet and a nice place to relax. I’d stay here again IF they installed a working outdoor water hose/shower (preferably in the front of the house). Unfortunately, we were unable to keep sand out of the house without one. There is an old hose and shower out back but it was not functioning. I did not receive any follow up when I reached out to the management company regarding this being broken. But I would not stay in this property again without a working outdoor hose area to wash off before entering the house.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: First, loved the location, close to beach and dining. Good parking areas. Some suggestions to improve the stay:1- Make available outside running water, reduces the sand tracked inside, in tubs and a courtesy for renters to wash beach items after use.2- Only one TV in cottage, not even a HD TV. Most rentals have a TV in all bedrooms, not here.3- HVAC filters should be changed regularly, the return was full of dust! Didn't appear to have been changed in months!4- Every receptacle in bedrooms was loose, plug-ins always fell-out.5-Hallway shower couldn't be set to comfortable level, would go from hot to cold while in.6-Would be nice if den furniture was upgraded. Needs a true sofa, a lounger is not a sofa.7-Do away with the make-shift head and foot boards, current ones rocked every time you got in or out of bed.8- Update vanities in both baths.9- Didn't appear lawn service ever weeds the backyard areas, nice patio/deck, but weeds and poison ivy was abundant in both front and back.Sorry to be a downer, having rented homes on SSI for the last 12 summers, most cottages have been updated to stay up with the competition. I feel the owner needs to hear these comments and know what renters expect and what needs improvements. I was planning to get your email when we stopped on Saturday, but you were not open. Please pass these comments on to the owners. However, you don't need to place this on your website review.
