We had a family gathering at Castaway Cottage. The house was very clean, had plenty of room for the eight of us, and was located near everything on our list. Our main objective was to see the USS Lexington which was an easy 30 minute drive away. The kids enjoyed the pool, the Gulf beaches (again just a short drive) and riding their skates and skooters around the complex. Thank you for making our time away from home so comfortable! We would book again! ##### Connie G.

The managers of the unit would not give us a refund for the time we were told to leave due to a tornado hitting land. I have been going back and forth about their always changing ‘policy’s’. I think yall at Vrbo should take another look at Vacasa and their properties. If you’re considering a Vacasa rental DO NOT RENT FROM THEM. If you’re forced out by the national weather service they won’t care. They only care about no vacancy. Not your safety. ##### Mark T.

Bring your own wash rags, as the house was only stocked with one. We had to buy some locally. Bring your own washing detergent. The pool was dirty two days we were there, but was cleaned the last day we were there and were able to enjoy it. I would stay here again!

We enjoyed the bunk beds for the kids (and we have 4 under the age of 7). It was overall comfortable and beautiful and there was a nice pool and playground maybe 75 yards walking that was also great for kids. ##### Luca E.
