The pool is described as heated but you have to pay additional per day for "Heating" it, so the rate is actually more than posted. Other than that, the house is great for a family vacation!

We highly recommend this property and would stay here again. The pictures don’t do it justice. Pros: HOT water, good water pressure, comfortable beds, AC worked great, clean, and comfortable. The neighborhood is very quiet and it is a safe area. The yard is private and the backyard views are amazing. Behind the fence is a nice “green space” to observe wildlife. Lots of birds to listen to and watch in the morning with a cup of coffee. The reclining sectional in the living room was perfect to relax on after a long day. The outdoor living space was perfect and included a TV (which was great to watch NCAA tournament games while in the pool/spa). We paid extra to heat the pool/spa and I’m so glad we did. Highs during the day were usually upper 80s and lows at night were 50-60s. Heating allowed us to get up and be in the pool at 5:30am
