    The property was not as listed, no foosball table for the kids, the TVs didn’t have satellite and didn’t work, the owner did try to help me activate Amazon but that was cutting into our family time. The BBQ grill is broken and was in a rusted mess in back yard. The house wasn’t super clean on check in- stains on bedding couch etc. The normal items at a rental were not there, one bathroom no hand soap, only 1/2 roll of toilet paper, no soap for showers. The location is close to the beach which was great. The property manager did come and help us get new bedding, soap and brought one roll of toilet paper we still had to go get enough for 4 days and 4 people, we wasted time with all the messages and calls. The quick response was the reason for the higher rating, I would not stay here again.

    We had a wonderful time at this perfect house with such cute architectural details like high ceiling, cute molding, and stained glass windows. We enjoyed afternoons playing games. We used the games in the kitchen nook along with some we had brought. The ac worked fabulously. The location was close enough to the beach even in the heat advisory we could walk with the the 5, 8, & 12 year old. Thanks for offering for rent such a fabulous house.

    Overall the home was just right for our stay. The road construction made it difficult to get in and out but other than that Charming Cottage is in a very good location.

    The location was great for us. Perfect walking distance to the beach and hot spot local restaurants. We brought the family down for little weekend break and we had a wonderfully time. We're looking forward to doing it again next year.

    The rental process was easy, and Van stayed in communication during the entire stay. We had an issue with the electronic keypad upon arrival. I called Van and the problem was fixed remotely during the phone call. The property itself was very clean and spacious. There were 6 adults on the trip and plenty of room for everyone. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots/pans, cooking utensils, and silverware. The screened in porch had some stuff for the beach, a charcoal grill, and some seating. The outdoor showers in the back were nice after coming back from the beach. We had a great time, and Van was an excellent host!

    My husband and I stayed with our two teen daughters over the 4th of July. The house was so clean and had everything we needed. Great location, only 1-2 blocks from the beach/sea wall where we went every day and spent 4th of July watching the parade, fireworks, and drone show. Lots of great food options in walking distance including the taco truck, Queen’s BBQ, and many more. Loved drinking coffee in the back porch, grilling fresh seafood from Katie’s seafood market, and watching movies in the spacious living room. Beds were very comfortable and both bathrooms were very clean with great big showers. The host was very easy to reach and immediately responded to any questions before and during our stay. Would highly recommend!

    Within a block of the beach and a short walk to Pleasure Pier. The house was clean, no problems with parking and cute fenced in back yard. The owner was very attentive and it's great to have a full size washer and dryer! All things like towels, sheets and toliet paper were provided too. We would definitely stay again!
