Other Things to Note:

- This home is connected to another unit on the property, with separate reserved parking areas but shared walls and outdoor space—so you should expect to hear or see neighbors during your stay. If you’re seeking a very private and completely quiet retreat, this may not be the best fit. Let us know if you have any concerns!

- This home sleeps up to 12 guests, but the common areas are small in size. The dining table and living room don’t seat all 12 at once, so meals and hangouts may feel more camp-style and casual. The 3 bedrooms on the lower level have low ceilings, making the rooms best suited for children or guests under 6 ft tall. Think of it as a fun, summer-camp style retreat—perfect for groups who don’t mind a snug fit.

- We have landscapers, pest service, and other property maintenance done on a weekly basis. You may see or hear these service professionals during your stay as they let themselves into the backyard to service as needed. Please be sure to ask about this before booking if you think it might be an issue for you.

- The exterior of this home is monitored by 24/7 surveillance recording devices for safety.

- We are required to stick to our cancellation policy and we suggest adding trip insurance for any last-minute issues that may impact your travel (Weather, Illness, etc). We are not able to cancel, move or refund bookings that do not fall in our cancellation policy for any reason.

    The place was perfect! Our cars never left the area once we arrived. We spent our time between the house and the beach! There was ample amount of dishes and silverware for the amount of people the house sleeps. There was some beach stuff too which was perfect! There was a Very small list of negatives 1.the oven part of the stove didn’t work right and we couldn’t use it. But the stove top worked fine. 2. The ice machine would pop out and all yellow/brown ice cub once in a while and not sure why. 3. The parking is a little tight even for small cars, but we still were grateful to have the option as there wasn’t a ton of street parking available. Overall the place was so great! And the location was wonderful! Walking by the lagoon on our way to the beach was so peaceful and majestic.

    We absolutely loved our stay. We would have loved a hot tub but we understand why there wasn’t one with the shared yard and all. The house was perfect for our needs. We love that our kids felt comfortable and not on edge as if they were going to break everything. It was so comfortable and we would for sure come back.

    My daughter was set on having a bonfire birthday celebration and this place was perfect for our Family’s stay afterward! Twin lakes is 5 minutes walking distance and that made things simple and convenient for us.
