Family Vacation
The property was beautiful and accommodated my family well. Located just a short golf cart ride from the beach other amenities, we were able to survive without a car rental. We definately would love to rent this property again. Our only request would be to provide a broom onsite!

Great Time at Anchor Down
Anchor Down was home base for our annual golf trip. It accommodated the 7 of us very well. We have been renting large beach houses like this for our trip for over 20 years. This property ranks with the best. It is well maintained and stocked with the typical wear and tear to be expected with a beach rental. A couple call outs for future consideration… - The floors and carpets could really use a good scrubbing - One of the upstairs bedrooms was missing window coverings… glad I didn’t get that room!! - If renters are willing to pay for it, pool heat should be available. We missed the June 1 cutoff by 4 days. The pool temp was in the 70’s making it unusable… and the spa really isn’t a spa… it just recirculates the pool water so it was unuassable as well.
