    Everything was clean, the area was very quiet, about 7 minutes from the beach by car. The owner was very friendly and answered all our questions quickly.

    We stayed with two small dogs…. So many sticker (sandspurs) in the yard that letting them outside was impossible. First time in the yard, we picked over 60 from their paws and hair. Painful. Owner does not put effort into amenities.Only heat/ac was very loud window units.One night stay was definitely not worth the 333 charge

    First of all, I want to clarify that my family slept over for one night of the three nights that i had rented the cottage.Unfortunately, my stay there could have been better. The cottage was pretty dirty. There is a trail of ants in the doorway between the kitchen and livingroom. The ice dispenser was frozen over. The portable ice maker on the counter was very dirty. I had to wash any dishes that I had used because the coffee cup I pick up from the cabinet had some kind of scum. There is a round thing attached to the inside of the screen door that scrapped my son's arm, causing injury. I'll just say that the front porch was also pretty dirty.That is what I can remember at the moment. Usually if I can't think of anything nice to say, I don't say anything. I couldn't let this one go. I splurged on this trip to see my son on his birthday and, for me, that was a lot of money for three nights. Too bad because this place has a lot of potential.

    I was instantly disappointed in this rental. Outdated to say the least. Yard not cared for (found someone's bikini bottoms in the grass near the back porch). Living room had frat house vibes with heavy leather sofas. Flooring was soft in places. We had to cover up a protruding nail head. Screen on door was broken. Knob missing from screen door nearly ripped my dress. Uncomfortable bed.Thankful we did not spend much time there.Nice, walkable or bikeable neighborhood. Did not appreciate the neighbors dog barking profusely at 6am daily. Sleeping in was not an option. Owner supplies a good amount of beach necessities such as coolers, umbrella, boogie board.

    Sketchy neighborhood, homeless people nearby, floors caving in, screws sticking up can cut feet, lacking silverware & utensils. Plus side- comfortable beds, washer & dryer, good shower

    I was looking for quite some time for a nice place for my gals and I to stay for our beach trip and this certainly was the place! It’s in a great location! Close to everything and the owners are very kind and respond swiftly! Only downfall is the house is a little run down but that didn’t stop us from having an amazing time!

    My family and I enjoyed our stay. Enjoyed the convenience of having our dogs with us and close access to everything we wanted to see! Wish the yard was fenced in only because the dogs from the neighbors house roam free and we had two incidents walking our dogs out to use the bathroom and running into unleashed dogs from next door. Could use a bit of updating but the hosts were extremely helpful and responded quickly to any questions I had.
