It was very clean and nicely decorated house. We loved the back deck too. The house had plenty of room for our party of 6 and 2 dogs. It was a great vacation.

Its location is really nice. We could walk to the beach. If we had things to carry, you can rent a golf cart and use the boardwalk with it to get to the beach. The neighborhood is very nice and quiet. The back patio over looks a pond. A nice quiet, private view. The kitchen is well stocked. We had Thanksgiving dinner here and had what we needed to prepare it. Bedrooms are nice and comfortable. TV and internet were good. We didnt have any connection issues. They had Netflix and Roku.The management company is very good. Checkout is super easy and didn't burden us with silly "shouldn't our fee cover this?" kind of cleaning reqirements. We enjoyed our stay and are glad we chose this house.

Not clean!

The code for the key was not available at the appointed check in time. Called to get the code and was told the phones were out at Silver Sands. Thankfully the phone operator helped find someone to help us. The key box did not work very well. The inside was covered in a film of sand. The dishwasher had dirty dishes in it and the fronts of the kitchen cabinets were dirty. It was obvious they had not been wiped down in a while. The front porch was full of spider webs and bugs everywhere. The best part of the house were the beds that were comfortable. Resort Style Pool not so much! I would not book again.
