This was a great rental, and they provided so many of the basic necessities, such as dish soap, dishwasher pods, laundry pods, and even shampoo and lotion in the bathrooms. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of towels for our 5 day stay. Matt and Kristin were very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We will definitely be coming back again- hopefully soon! Very nice Resort too!

We love visiting Northern Bay! The condo is clean and tastefully decorated. The amenities here are wonderful for our family with the boat dock for our boat, pool area, park area, and the golf course is beautiful! Someday we might enjoy that part when our children get a little older.

Very Nice Property - nicely decorated and furnished. Very appreciative of the beach toys and stroller for the kiddos! Well stacked kitchen as well - a suggestion for future guests might be a collapsable beach wagon for pool and beach trips - we had forgotten ours. Will definitely keep in mind for future trips! Thank you.

Family Weekend Together

We loved your condo. Great location, near the pool & playground. First floor patio was really nice with the grass to play games & watch the golfers. The beverage refrigerator was put to good use. Used the washing machine one time & the dryer was nice for our pool towels. Beds, pillows, sheets, towels, TVs, fans all made it a nice place for us. We also used the stroller, ping pong table & the kids loved the beach ball, pool noodle & the sand toys. Check in & check out super easy!

Family Trip

My spouse and our four children ranging 2 years to 12 years enjoyed the first floor condo. This place is wonderful for families with the pool, hot tub, playground, beach, and easy boat access on site. We got plenty of time on the water fishing, and the pool/playground is always a hit with the kiddos! Makes a family trip easy. Beautiful set up. Someday we may find time to golf, we watched many golfing and it looked like they were having a great time. We have been to this resort many times before and after we have had our children. Love it, and plan to return every year!

Very clean! Ample space for family.

The great: clean, quiet, spaces for all the family to watch a movie, play games and cook. Great to have the cot and sleeper sofa! Walking distance to pool. The unexpected: room for 2 cars, not 3. One in garage, one in front of garage. Extra parking very close! Was not expecting flying golf balls. Twice I was almost hit by bad swings ;) One golfer yelled fore, the other did not and his ball hit the building and fell. Both times I was outside and ball landed 4 to 6 feet away. This was a wonderful rental and Matthew was super responsive to my questions. Thank you!
