Family weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Though the home has some over used items and make it look a little outdated, it has plenty of family space. Large kitchen and 2 baths helped a lot. The location is very near the ocean and makes it great to walk to the beach. The extra services offered by the management company are a must as you don't have to carry a lot personal items, i.e. towels and bed linens. Over all I say I'll stay in this again and recommend it to anyone going to Crystal beach.

Nice place, but would not rent again.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The struggle of the rental itself was enough to not make me want to stay there but time and spaces were limited. I've never rented anything, cabin, home etc where I had to request and pay for sheets and towels. The house can only hold 12 people but not very comfortably. The "septic" not being able to hold up to the max occupancy and being told if I had more people there I should rent a port a potty was not something I would have expected. When we arrived the downstairs was disgusting with bird feces all over the concrete and bars. Chalk writing all over the posts, grass was shin high. Had to call, take pictures and send them to the realtor to have them come out the next day to mow. We cleaned all the bird **** up ourselves. Renting a beach cabin is supposed to be relaxing and enjoyable, this was not. It's a nice place, but not worth the hassle.

An accident waiting to happen.

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Furniture was dirty ! Pots and pans had dried food on them. Support rails on deck were not screwed down. Wires on lights on deck walk way were exposed. Pillows and comforters were dirty and stained. There was not a smoker as shown on listing. Shower did not work in guest bathroom. We lost three days of our vacation waiting on steam cleaners, plumbers, and maintenance staff. I
