Excellent beach location

Great for a family getaway. House is perfect for various sizes of families. Fantastic canal views from the back decks and boat dock, perfect for watching wildlife as well as watching boats coming back in from their day of fishing.

Great Fishing Weekend

Guys fishing weekend, great stay. Having the boat dock was the reason we selected this property. Pretty much a new dock, very well done. House has great sounds views and is set up well to be an accommodating rental property. Great location right on the water and close to the beach. We will stay here again, thanks for having us!

Amazing views

I worked out of the home for a month and it was absolutely awesome to watch the boats, paddle boards, and even the storms roll through outside the big glass windows. The house is decorated perfectly and well stocked with what you need. And more importantly, it was clean!! And it came with fresh linens and a 3 car garage! Great place. Highly recommend.

I am writing to formally request a partial refund for our stay due to a major maintenance issue. The air conditioning in the property was non-functional, and the indoor temperature reached 90 degrees. (The out door temperature was 90 degrees as well).As I mentioned in multiple messages and phone calls since our arrival June 18 2026 @ 4:06p.m. , this issue goes beyond discomfort. I have my young child staying with me who has asthma, and these extreme indoor temperatures create a direct health and safety hazard for her as well as all of us. We experienced heat rash and extreme exhaustion from the torturous heat. We attempted to use neck fans we brought with us in hopes of cooling down.Because a primary advertised amenity was unavailable for a duration of our stay and the home was unsafe to occupy comfortably, I am requesting at least a partial refund for the stay June 18 - 21, 2026.We had to cancel multiple plans due to this issue and having to wait at the property for hours until Taylor's Heating and Air arrived. Although the technician ultimately resolved the issue, it took a considerable amount of time for the home to return to a comfortable temperature which we were informed this by the technician before his departure.(next day before in door temperature was cool mid 70s)What was suppose to be a joyous occasion family get away did not begin in that manner due to this issue.I appreciate your prompt attention to getting the AC repaired and look forward to your respon

Disappointed

From the pics and reviews, the place looked and sounded great! Upon entry, we were very disappointed. The place was just wasn’t clean. There were dead bugs, the couches were dirty, and the walls and cupboards were grimy. The realty company was very kind though and the location was nice.
