Beachwalk Retreat | Lake Kai | Walk to Beach +Pool

10/10Comfortable with great location, close to beach, pool and parkNothing lacking! Lots to do or just relaxHost was super responsive Have stayed in Beachwalk many times and this is best

The Bullpen is right in the middle of everything Beachwalk has to offer. Short walk down the boardwalk to the pool or activity center. Right around the corner from the park and playground. Easy less than half mile walk to the beach. Senior parents did have some difficulty with the lack of any type of railing off the deck to the boardwalk. Resort definitely has a lot of kids but we still enjoyed it for our adult family. Note that there is an extra fee for resort wristbands or you won’t be able to do any of the activities. That wasn’t clear to me when booking. Two minor problems when we were there and property manager was very responsive.

We love being on the Lake Kai boardwalk with a sunrise view from the screened porch, right in the middle of the action; the house configuration suits our group well. We appreciated the upgraded furniture in the living room, lower level, outside area and bedrooms and the plentiful cleaning products. The house instruction book is very thorough and helpful, though we were surprised to learn that our host is not available on Sundays, when we had a question. Beachwalk amenities get better every year, though the resort bracelets are pricy.

We had a fun time on the lake! The location of the house is absolutely perfect. We enjoyed all the amenities and especially loved the fishing. The house has everything you need including a very well stocked kitchen. We can’t wait to return!!

We had a great week at The Bullpen! The house was the perfect size for our group of 11 (4 adults plus 7 kids ranging in age from 5 to 15). The view of Lake Kai was beautiful, and we loved being able to fish from right outside the back door. The house had everything we needed in the kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms and for the beach. The games were a great touch too, as well as the extra beach towels, firepit, beach chairs and scooter. The location of the house was great, as it was a short walk to the playground, pool, beach access and kayaks. We rented a golf cart for the week which probably wasn’t completely necessary due to the close proximity of everything, but it sure made it easier to take trips of gear and people to the beach, as well as take the kids for rides. Communication with the host was excellent too. We would definitely recommend The Bullpen, and we hope to visit again!

The house worked great for our family of 10 which included grandparents, three adult children, two with spouses and 3 grandchildren ranging from 7 months to 8 years. Each family group had their own bedroom/ bathroom and we all loved the screen porch overlooking Lake Kai. It became the gathering space for coffee, meals, conversation and reading. Being able to walk to the beach, pool, ice cream and even coffee were terrific. It was a wonderful week and the house was perfect for us.

While the house is in a community that is very close to other homes, the view of the beautiful lake and property makes you feel like you are in a private place. The home was clean and well furnished with supplies. The layout fit our family well. Our property manager, Gina, was the BEST and always attentive to any concern. Thank you for providing this wonderful space for a fabulous family vacation!

Our extended family is full of Beachwalk veterans: we've been going there for more than 25 years and have sampled many rental homes, but it will be hard to surpass The Bullpen for cleanliness, comfort and location. We lived on the screened porch overlooking Lake Kai and slept well on quality bedding. Plentiful games, beach towels and chairs and household supplies were much used and appreciated--and everything in the house worked. Our host Gina met us personally on check-in and was completely responsive and friendly. This home is not managed by Beachwalk and we found Gina's company to be far superior in oversight and personal contact.

We have been coming to Beachwalk every summer for about the last 8 summers and I have to say, this is the best house we've rented to date! The view of Lake Kai and location right near the pool was fantastic. The screened in porch off the kitchen is perfect for morning coffee and meals even if it is rainy. The walk out covered porch from the basement is also a lovely feature and the fire pit right on the lake was awesome at night. The house is so well appointed, with plenty of towels, glasses/yeti's, a great fridge with plenty of ice, silverware & dishes along with amazing water pressure in all the showers/tubs. They even had 6 beach chairs and towels & 3 wagons to get to and from the beach. The property manager was quick to reply to any issue we had, which were few. For reference, we had 3 adults and 7 children ranging from 1 year to 18 years old--plenty of space for everyone to relax when we weren't outside. The Golden Tee' video game in the basement was a HUGE hit with my teen boys and my brother (who is 37!) We had an absolute blast and we would most definitely rent this house again (which is not something I have said about past rentals in this area!) Absoultely worth it! We enjoyed it sooooo much! Thank you Gina!

It was very peaceful because it was facing the small Lake Kai. Nice to see people fishing on the lake. The screened-in porch was perfect, along with the outdoor firepit. The property manager was very responsive with the few problems that existed (leaking faucet and broken ice maker). The one complaint from the adults...the beds were not very comfortable. Otherwise, it was a great gathering place for our whole family. Thank you!
