We enjoyed our week at the carriage house. Very beautiful sunsets every night!! Nice home with great host. Location was awesome to all local restaurants, beaches and shopping. The home was very relaxing and quite even with building next door. Everyone at this location was so nice and helpful.

I waited to post this review in the hopes that the listing would be updated as to no longer have any misleading pictures. However, I do not wish for another family to be disappointed as we were when we arrived at our rental. I will start with the positives…. The rental is beautiful and updated. The appliances are in great shape and the kitchen has all you may need for your stay. The pool is a short distance away and was great. Windmark is a beautiful area.
The negatives…. I specifically chose this rental for the beach/water access that is shown in the pictures. We have two small children with lots of beach equipment and diaper changes to think about as well. We stay in places with direct beach access for this reason, quick run to the room for diaper changes/lunch/naps etc. Upon our arrival we discovered that a retaining wall consisting of large rocks/boulders has been added to the beach. There is sand access directly in front of the house but in order to get to the water, you must walk 200 yards where the wall ends. It was an extreme disappointment for us as it was the selling point of us booking. While this is no fault of the homeowner/lister, I asked that the listing be updated to reflect this. As of today the pictures still show an open beach/water in front of the home. Just beware when booking that this is not the case.
The area is great with restaurants, a close downtown area, and the home is beautiful. If direct beach access is a must, it’s best to look elsewhere.
