    The house was a mess, not in the condition of the photos. The couch was so old and dirty the cushions were saggy and gross. The drawers in the fridge were broken. Dead bug on the blinds, corners of rooms, corners of ceilings. Hot tub had a leak. Blue electrical tape holding the window units in. I had a 2 week stay so paid for maids to come end of first week to clean. She did not clean. The beds were unmade, sand in the tubs and sinks, floors still had dead bugs, literally only took out the trash. One maid was sent out for a 4 bedroom 3 bathroom house! I did call the rental company who apologized and then sent the SAME one maid back to ‘clean’. She asked me what she should do? It was a total disaster. The mattress in the bedroom by the kitchen was so squeaky it woke me up anytime I moved. I understand these beach houses are not luxurious but this was just uncomfortable and we ended up leaving early.

    We stayed here for three weeks and had a few hiccups at first but the property owner was extremely helpful in rectifying. We had a great stay here! Very short walk to Timbuck 2. We had little kids with us so we were walking to/from the beach a couple of times a day - the walk was a little farther then was convenient for us, but if you aren’t making multiple trips to and from it’s an easy easy walk. So sad our trip is over! Lots of memories made here.

    We stayed here with our two pups and enjoyed our stay greatly. Although we didn’t use the whole house (it was just the two of us) it was clean, comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The pool was a great addition, and we thoroughly enjoyed taking an evening bike ride with each night. The beds were comfy too. The bonus of having the beach equipment credit was great! The beach was about a 12 minute walk and about a 5 minute bike ride, but wasn’t too bad at all. There’s also a nice lake at the end of the street that we visited. Great place!

    We had a great time. The kids enjoyed the pool and the hot tub as did the adults. The house could use some general wear and tear maintenance and replacements. The refrigerator was missing the bottom glass so you couldn’t use it as a storage shelf. We improvised and used one of the oven racks and placemats from the table and it worked fine. The hot tub cover literally fell apart when we opened the hot tub from just dry rot. A lot of the foam came down into the tub that we needed to clean out. While the linens appeared clean, there was some stains that would give people the impression of not being clean. Some ants accumulated by the trash. All things were very minor and easy to improvise and work around, overall the house is well maintained.
