Beautiful Home and Beaches

The VRBO was perfect for 3 families to gather. We enjoyed the golf carts, the game room, the pool, and the stroll to the beach. The Santa Rosa area has many wonderful restaurants. This is a place that is worth every penny!

Perfect Family Vacation

It was big enough to fit our whole family 3 grandparents, 6 adults, and 9 grandchildren. The living room area and kitchen were spacious and never felt crowded at all. The beach was beautiful and easy to get to on the golf carts. The host was very detailed and we felt like we had all the information we needed. The host was excellent and quickly responded.

Great house for a large group

Overall the house was beautiful and in a great location. We loved the golf carts that were provided. The house was very well kept and clean. The only issue we had was having an adequate supply of hot water. There were several days that multiple people took cold showers due to not having enough hot water. Also, when we booked the house it states the house has an elevator but does not mention it’s only a service elevator. We have several family members that have knee and hip issues and having an elevator would have been great for them. In fact that was one of the main reason we booked.

Thank you for the 5 star review of Shenanigans, Michael! We're happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed the spacious layout, and included golf carts. We wish you would have said something about having issues with the hot water during your stay, as we would have been happy to resolve the issue during your stay. However, we will resolve the issue immediately. Additionally, as mentioned prior to arrival, the elevator is for maintenance only. In the end, we're happy to hear you enjoyed the house and location overall. We wish you the best, Michael!

Hits the marks

A holiday stay for family time was suited to this property. We had asked to check in a bit early, given it was Christmas and unlikely anyone would be checking out that day, but the management is quite rigid. That has some advantages in that they have a strong ticket system to respond to any issues during the stay, but tended to make the interactions a bit more cold. Still, fine location, spacious property, perhaps a bit over-priced for the quality of the property, and with good supporting structure should needs arise.

Thank you for the review of Shenanigans, Lewis! We're happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed the house! As mentioned at the time of booking, we do not allow early check ins in order to ensure our team has plenty of time to prepare the house for your stay. Additionally, most guests prefer the automated maintenance ticket system as it ensures the fastest response times without having to go back and forth to communicate any unexpected issues should they arise. In the end, we're happy to hear that you enjoyed the spacious layout of the house and convenient location. We wish you the best!

Big family vacation

We loved our time at Blue Mountain Beach. We had a few issues with the house. It needs some maintenance and upkeep. It’s a beautiful house but it won’t be long if things aren’t addressed. There’s some wood rot inside and out. Definitely needs paint touch up in some places. The rails on some of the staircases are loose. The pictures are probably from when they first listed it and not completely accurate. The game room on the third floor was amazing, when we were home, that’s where we were. I would suggest putting a shower in the third floor bathroom, the bathtub isn’t sufficient for most people. I felt the listing made it sound like a beautiful new home. It is beautiful for the most part but definitely not new. Loved having the golf carts!! I did reach out to the owner and he was very responsive and offered to have someone come address the issues but we knew that it wasn’t a quick fix and we didn’t want the house to be under construction while we were there. We will definitely be back to Blue Mountain Beach. We love it there but felt for the price we payed for this house, it should have been better!!

Thank you for the review of Shenanigans. We're happy to hear that you and your family enjoyed the house overall and included golf carts! Like all short term rental houses and regular houses, normal wear and tear is common. However, we repair/replace anything as needed. We appreciate the feedback, and will immediately work on resolving the issues that you mentioned. In the end, we're happy to hear that you and your family will be returning to the area! We wish you the best!

Fantastic location

The location exceeded our expectations! 30A is a quiet “highway” with a speed limit of 25 mph. Walkable with a trail along side it and easy access to the quiet and beautiful Blue Mountain beach and ample parking. Fun local shops and coffee all close by. Much quieter than other close beaches. The nice golf carts were a huge bonus for fun driving around and quick access to the beach. The gated community was lovely and the pool very nice. This house is so close to the pool- just the second house away. Great amenities and clean house, plenty of space for sleeping everyone (multiple couples and 10 kids ages 1-12). Both master bedrooms had closets large enough for a pack and play each. All the kitchen amenities needed. We had a few maintenance issues (ice maker in freezer and and AC issue on arrival) but both were a breeze to report with their system and taken care of promptly and to our satisfaction. Had a starter set of basic soaps, hair wash, dish soap, sponge, dish towels, etc. which was very helpful on arrival. Two living spaces gave room to spread out. Really only thing we didn’t love was the carpet (needs replaced and was a little smelly when humid when AC wasn’t working). Otherwise normal wear and tear of a rental. Extra bedding provided too for pull out beds. We didn’t use them but nice to know. Very helpful FAQ list on booking and floor plans to know how to plan sleeping arrangements. Thanks for a great stay!
