Dogs, Pool! Single level! Whalehead! Guest Suite! C1084

This property was perfect for our small family group. Room accommodations are decent. Beach access is close and convenient. The back yard impressed me the most honestly. The small pool entertained the kids and the lawn was perfect for our dog! Would recommend!

Great place to stay for the week.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second stay at Summerfell and it’s truly our happy place. Perfect size for our family of three plus our dog. Our daughter loved the pool and the bunk beds. She set up shop on her favorite bunk with all the stuffed animals she brought the minute we got there. She even learned to dive to the bottom of the deep end this year after learning how to swim in that same pool a year ago. The pup loved taking in the sights on the screened porch. His favorite was cooling off in the sprinklers when they would turn on. Only complaint would be that the little Anole lizards that visited us poolside last time seemed to be absent this time around. We did find a big ol box turtle roaming the yard one morning, so that more than made up for it. We’ll be back!

Also, the pool was fantastic and had a separate fence !! The pool was a big hit for my 3 grandkids with the different lights that came on a night ! In August, the temperature was unusually cooler (78-82)... and the ocean was really rough (lots of 2 red flag days) So, the pool was ideal for being able to swim ! The Kitchen was great size. The master was a little disappointing - as there was no dresser for clothes. There is a small closet and night stands - but we pretty much stayed packed in the suitcases :( The other rooms had dressers. The bedroom on the lower level has a pull out sofa which was your typical pull out - and not very comfortable but it was great having that room on the lower level with a bathroom ! The house is located on a street that is within walking distance to the beach. We brought our own golf cart which was really convenient for quick trips to the beach and there was plenty of parking close to the beach for golf cart, cars, truck, and bikes. Okay --- big negative (has nothing to do with with the cottage)... was the traffic coming in (1.5 hour on main road - we were 12 minutes from the cottage) There was no accident only heaving traffic. I have never seen traffic like this.... Overall great stay and would highly recommend! :)

The fenced-in backyard and great pool area along with the short walk to the Shad St. beach entrance made it a perfect beach and pool vacation. Highly recommend!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very cute updated home. Location is great. Kitchen is adequately stocked. Plenty of under cover parking, Lovely pool with great secured yard space for the dogs. A couple of suggestions: clarify that the “ground floor” is actually a separate space with a separate entrance that you have to leave the home in order to access. Also, some cushions for the outdoor loungers (very nice quality but uncomfortable without cushions). Upgrading to a gas grill in the future would also add an additional element of convenience. Overall, we had a fantastic week.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was perfect. The house, the location, the food, the weather, EVERYTHING! If cooler weather is in the forecast, get the pool heated. On our first day the forecast was 65 and sunn, but the pool temp had to be in the high 80s, almost as warm as a hot tub. We had so much fun we ended up staying an extra day. The dogs had a blast running around the yard and our daughter LOVED the pool and pirate ship. The location was perfect. Short walk to the beach on a street with virtually no traffic. Beach carts and lots of pool toys were available. The house was the ideal size for a family of three with two large dogs. Rental company was friendly and helpful. Would definitely book this place again.

It is smaller and closer quarters but has most of what is needed!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Negative: This home was obviously renovated recently, but needs yearly upkeep. Upon arrival, the air filter was caked with dirt and likely hasn’t been cleaned before the new season. The dishwasher isn’t even installed into the cabinet, and pulls out every time you open it. The carpets are fraying at the thresholds, and need cleaned. The bathtub doesn’t have a stopper so you could not bathe kids. That same bath door sticks so hard you have to slam it to shut it. No ceiling fans at all, need circulation desperately in bedrooms. Kitchen doesn’t have a disposal so the sink needs a strainer for easier cleaning. The freezer doesn’t have an ice maker. Then if we add bags of ice in the freezer drawer, the weight causes the freezer to pop open. Kitchen is poorly stocked with basics like frying pans, baking dishes, spatulas, etc. family room couch covers need deep cleaned, very dirty. The bottom floor separate space smells like mold terribly, there’s no way someone can safely stay in that space. Outdoor furniture is falling apart on the deck, chairs rusted. Small dining table provided is about to collapse due to rust. Needs more outdoor dining and seating overall. Needs more shade on the pool deck, a second umbrella or shade. Screws on pool deck from cover are not all the way down causing a hazard to feet. Positive: Clean upon arrival, nice home. Pool is very nice. Overall a cute home but needs routine upkeep.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My group and I were very pleased with this property overall. The location and back yard were huge selling points for us - it was perfect for dogs, the pool was clean and perfectly heated, and it is only a 3-4 min walk to the beach. The beds were comfortable and the water pressure in the showers was great. One thing that was disappointing was the selection of beach chairs. They were dirty and rusted; we ended up renting chairs for the week. Some of the outdoor furniture was also rusted and could be replaced. The kitchen is mostly stocked for cooking with the exception of a few things. The biggest turnoff was the spiderwebs along the outside deck and fences and the very dirty coffee pot and silverware. Property management was very responsive to emails and were helpful with whatever we needed.
