It was nice and clean. We loved the pool. It was so refreshing at the end of the day. The outside porch overlooking the pool was the best. I sat out there in the evenings. We watched the squirrels jumping from tree to tree. Also lots of woodpeckers it was at a perfect location. We took the golf cart to the beach. Also to a lot of the shops and ice cream shops.

My one suggestion would be to add a picnic table and small fridge near the pool. The golf cart was really convenient. ##### Jack E. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lauren R. 31 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy We had such a wonderful time at this home and can't recommend it enough. The house was spotless and clearly very well-cared for. What truly set this place apart was how well-supplied it was. We didn't have to worry about a thing, with all the gear we needed for the beach and pool, and everything required for a great family barbecue. The location was ideal, offering both convenience and a peaceful setting. We also wanted to mention how much we appreciated the extra touches-the kind welcome bag and the helpful notebook filled with local tips and recommendations were a pleasant surprise. We would absolutely stay here again in a heartbeat! ##### Lauren R.

It was exactly as described in the listing if not better! Super clean, wonderful pool and outdoor entertainment for our children. We enjoyed playing games every night! We will definitely be back! ##### Meredith P. ### 10/10 Excellent #### John W. 8 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing Very clean, good location. ##### John W.
