PRIVATE SALTWATER POOL (19.5' x 37')
Open year-round. Pool heating is available in spring and fall (Apr 1–May 31, Sept 1–Oct 31) for an additional $500 + tax per week. Heating is only effective when temperatures—day and night—are forecasted to be above 60°F. We recommend checking the forecast closer to your stay (but at least 5 days prior) before adding heat.

PRIVATE OVERSIZED SPA (12' x 6')
This is an open-air spa, not an enclosed hot tub. Complimentary spa heat is provided year round; however, because it is open-air, the desired water temperature may not always be achievable when outdoor temperatures—day and night—are below 60°F. Spa heat is most effective during mild or warmer weather conditions.

Aside from a miscommunication about the pool heating which the owners promptly corrected with us, the house is absolutely incredible. Everything was very clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Perfect Family Getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was absolutely beautiful and incredibly clean. Everything was easy to access from the moment we arrived. The outdoor space was a big highlight, perfect for the kids (and adults) to play and relax.The weather didn’t quite cooperate like we had hoped, but having such a comfortable, welcoming place to come back to, made all the difference. It was nice knowing that even on the cloudy or rainy days, we were somewhere we truly enjoyed being.We’d absolutely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing, family-friendly getaway with plenty of room for everyone.

Life Is Grand

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We Rented the Life is Grand for a family reunion of 24 people and we had a great experience with the property and the Bask Away team, we had originally booked another property with Bask Away but there was water damaged that caused that property not to be available and the Bask Away team was amazing at getting us set up with the rental in place of the the other . Also when we couldn’t figure out the gas fireplace them sent a very capable and kind maintenance man over within an hour. They also recommended Sweetpea Photography when we were looking to have a family photo taken and that was an amazing experience as well.
