The place was roomy & comfortable. Wish the heat on the pool was working, since the pool water can be cold in springtime. We also did the Dolphin Sunset Cruise with Cetacean Cruises through the discounted activities offered. It was great! We saw dolphins throughout the cruise, so many we couldn’t keep up with the count! And we saw an eagle! ##### Pam H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Justin P. 17 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great house and location!

My 78 year old mom came with us. She had porch/breezeway to sit under. Was able to visit with us but still stay cool. We loved having a private pool and could look out at water/lagoon. Small gro store for quick pick ups near us and a big gro store less than 2 miles away—so close to beach too. ##### Amber C.

We enjoyed the covered back porch and the pool is larger than most. The setting was beautiful overlooking the lake. The cleaning crew could have done a better job, there was broken glass outside under the porch swings and the pool was dirty upon arrival, however the pool cleaners arrived the next day without request. Overall very happy with our stay and we would stay here again. ##### Shawn K.

Can’t say enough good things about property management. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. Sunsets from the pier are breathtaking. I would book this property again. ##### Sonya C.

We enjoyed the house, there was a problem with the hot water, it was hit or miss as to whether or not you would have enough hot water for a shower. Otherwise the house provided everything we could want, it was roomy and was in a good location. ### 8/10 Good #### Jeff D. 2 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Would be 5 but its close The house is amazing, very clean, roomy, nice bright feel. The views are also amazing! I have 2 complaints. No outdoor furniture besides a cheap plastic chair. You come to the beach to be outside, so it would seem necessary that you need outdoor living furniture! My second complaint is there are no blankets in this ehile house. There are plenty of sheets and pillows, but not one bed, or closet, has an actual blanket. Other than those 2 things, the house was perfect. Everything worked as it should and it was super clean. I would definitely stay here again but i hope they update the bedding!! ##### Jeff D.

Had a problem with air conditioning being set by the realtor. Maintenance came out twice. Never added Freon. It never cooled to a point that we were satisfied or comfortable. This will be the last time we stay at this particular beach house. Also, it did not seem that the pool was cleaned on the outside. We saw rats around the pool as well as roaches. Very disappointing. As this has never happened to us before at that particular location. ##### Troyce B. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brittany U. 10 Apr 2024 Liked: Communication, location #### Good and Bad The good: Amazing views, the pool was clean, the house was in a good location, the communication to and from the management company was good. Tbe bad: We were underwhelmed in many ways. We asked about a pool heater on booking and got no answer, then asked again and it wasn’t an option. The water went off during our stay unexpectedly. The king beds were not comfortable, the mattresses dipped. The house is cluttered and needs some updates. The floors are all different levels which is a tripping hazard for kiddos. Usually with the properties we stay at there are some amenities and toiletries but we had to get everything. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again. ##### Brittany U. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Dave U., Kentucky 8 May 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great getaway We had a great time at this property. Here’s a breakdown of pros and cons : Pros: beautiful setting in the lagoon. Sunsets were awesome. Home was well equipped. Pool was nice. Dock was great and fishing was really good. Beds were comfortable as well as furniture Cons: Had some issues with water temperature. We read in the past this was true as well and we had the same issues. Only used one shower as it was less of a problem there. The deck had a small issue when part of it broke free. Not a problem to just walk around it but just neeeds to me checked and reinforced. Overall the place needs a little cleaned up especially outside shrubs as it’s overgrown some. We would stay again tho. It’s a great location on the lagoon and the pros definitely outweigh the cons. ##### Dave U.

Very peaceful, great neighbors, and pet friendly, which was great. The cleaning lady does a very good job with what she has to work with BUT.... The pictures on the VRBO site are very outdated. We had a lot of issues:The carpeting in the bedrooms is disgusting. Stained and has chunks of something in it. Forget cleaning it - tear it out and put something pet-friendly in.The TV in the bedroom doesn't work. There were no batteries in the remotes and one remote didn't have a back to hold the batteries in place.The oven didn't work. We brought pizza's and had to leave them in the freezer when we left. The pool area was not at all what was shown in the pictures - very outdated and not cleaned. I swept the driveway, the patio area, and the steps. The shower in the master bath doesn't drain. The water accumulates around your feet.The hot water is unpredictable while showering - it gets real hot all of a sudden.The toilet in the master sounds like it is trying to fill all the time. Annoying at night. The washing machine stinks really bad - I cleaned around the rubber seal and pulled so much black mold and mildew out.The curtains in the bedrooms need to be cleaned - they are dirty and water stained. We had two dead roaches in one of the top bunk beds.Needless to say, we will not be a repeat customer. ##### Margie S.
