Average rental
Pros: 1. Dog friendly home including tile floors & fenced yard. 2. Not in high traffic area, but easy to get to restaurants, etc. 3. TVs in bedrooms and main space which can be viewed from dining and living room. Also a DVD player so you can get a Redbox movie, if needed. 4. Decent amount of space with nice kitchen. 5. Electronic keypad, so you don't have to worry about keeping track of a house key. Cons: 1. Needs some attention. Noticeable musty smell and appears to have mildew around the vent above bed in 2nd bedroom. A half bath bulb burned out - someone removed it instead of replacing. Hose at front of house (best place to rinse dog paws - outdoor shower not ideal for this) doesn't work. 2. Communication could be better. No info on VRBO app for check-in. Didn't receive any messages until day before trip and instruction sheet indicates "no pets", although booking showed bringing dogs. Never got a response when requested verification on this. Random FYIs: There's no tiki bar. I don't know anyone who needs this, but ya know... The queen bed is very high. If you're traveling with little ones, you might need to use the fold-up bed (looks like a twin) or sleeper sofa. Takeaway: Weather wasn't great during our stay, so we couldn't fully enjoy the beach (which is pretty nice) but the house was comfy. It was good to have a place we could bring the pups and not have to keep them on leashes when they needed to go out.

Amazing!
This place was an easy to get to location.. we love staying on the old part of town because you can take the golf cart everywhere. We pick the house based off location and the fireworks that were going to happen for new years because the show is on that side of town. I can’t say enough great things about the house.. super clean when you walk in..lots of cooking/utensils…beds were comfy. Everything was great! Definitely stay here again! Melanie was awesome and so nice to communicate with!
