Things could have been cleaner! No lock or handle on basement door. Dishwasher washer, broke during our stay.Motor for air conditioner broke serving the lower level bedrooms.. Window units were placed where possible. Unit not fixed until Thursday. Inspected for home before we checked in, stated light bulb was needed in shower of upper ensuit. He didn't have any extras and we could purchase a new one. Come to find out it wasn't screwed in all the way. There were large cockroaches, in house and in pool and upper front porch. The swimming pool was great, we used it all but two days because of weather change. Had a great time despite all the problems.

Our group of 8 had the best time in this rental property! We were 4 married couples and enjoyed being able to all hang out in the main living area together, while also being able to have our own private areas to retreat to when we wanted some privacy as well. The the house was very clean, the kitchen well-stocked, and the hot tub was amazing, we used it every night of our stay! We loved the large farmhouse table and open layout of the kitchen and living room. The slider doors and all the windows let in such beautiful sunlight. The house was a short distance to the beach and several of us went almost everyday, either for the sunrise, or just to walk along the beach. I would suggest taking a car if you want to go for the sunrise, as the street leading from the house to the beach is very dark with no street lights, otherwise, it’s an easy enough walk from the house to the beach. We had an issue with the stove not working, but the realty company got someone out within the hour to assess it, and had it fixed within a couple hours after that. Each person I talked to during that process, from the one who took the call, to the gentleman who came out for the assessment, to the man who actually delivered the new tanks, since we were completely out of gas, were all so kind. Additional lighting around the hot tub and pool would be great for nighttime use, and relocating the basketball court to the wider part of the driveway would also be helpful, since some of the guys in the group kept slipping off the side. All in all I would recommend this rental to anyone and hope to stay again in the near future. **I noticed a couple of other reviewers mentioned cockroaches, and we did see 2 in the house during our stay, one was a baby on the lowest level, and there was one that was a little larger on the second level. They were the only two we saw the entire time and we only saw them the first night we were there. Cockroaches are very common in the area, so it is not a reflection of the property’s cleanliness, it was very clean, but I figured I would mention it so that people wouldn’t be surprised if they came across them. All in all this is a great property and you won’t be disappointed if you stay!

Overall the property was nice. Location and size of the house were great! 8 of us stayed there for a week. If you are looking for just a place to sleep/eat, this house is perfect. If you’re wanting a place to hang out and chill in the house, I would not recommend this property until they fix most of the issues that several people have had. After 2 nights, some issues became pretty annoying. The mattresses were old, hard and sunken in the middle. There was a large wasp nest outside on the main porch that prevented us from being able to go outside. The hotel-level secure WiFi prevented us from using our Apple TV because we could not login to it. And even when you could login to the Wi-Fi (mobile device/laptop), the signal was terrible. The couches in the living room were partially broken and super uncomfortable. The gas fireplace in the living room was also not working when we arrived. One of the shower drain stoppers was broken and would not drain properly. The property has potential to be great! Really needs some minor TLC to get it back to what it was when the pictures were taken.
