We have always stayed on North Beach. We decided to venture out to the "southside" and we fell in love! The house is a short walk to the beach as well as town. This owner has so many tiny details that make the stay comfortable from every small appliance you can imagine to labeled light switches, wagon, sand toys, and a functioning firepit. We are now south side converts! :) ##### Mary H.

It was an easy walk to the beach, playground and into town. The house is beautifully decorated and updated. Plenty of space for our little family and the outdoor space was lovely too. The only downside that we had was that the floors upstairs were very very loud which woke up our son the first couple of nights there. But that was really our only complaint. If we needed something, we just texted the help number and responses were extremely quick. ##### Kelsey C. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Robert L. 5 Sept 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect location, disappointed with cleanliness This property was a perfect location - an easy walk to South Beach with kids, an easy walk into town, and within a short drive to anywhere we wanted to go. The kitchen, master bedroom and bathrooms are all newly updated and very nice. Our main concern was the level of cleanliness of the property. There was heavy dust caked on ceiling fans to the point we couldn't use them, dust on furniture, under furniture, dusty cobwebs hanging from the ceiling upstairs and one of the bedrooms had a musty smell. There was also a big ant problem in the kitchen and master bedroom/bathroom - ants crawling on suitcase, nightstand, shower, countertop etc. We reached out to the property manager about the ants when we noticed them and they were quick to respond to bring ant traps. They did enter the rental to place ant traps without notifying us they were planning to do so or when. They also booked a pest control company to spray the outside of the house and that person arrived when we had just gotten back from the beach and had all of our beach stuff in the lawn. We quickly had to get everything off the yard, deck, and away from the house because of him spraying. Again, there was no communication this was taking place otherwise we would have planned around this pest control appointment. After some back and forth about the complaint of the rental being so dusty and the ant problem, we were refunded less than half of our cleaning fee. ##### Robert L.

Close to beach, town, kids Corner. Did a Lot of bike riding down to state park and Kal-Haven trail. Kitchen was well stock except no dish clothes or dish towels?? Overall the house was clean but cobwebs along baseboards. You can tell it is a rental from the outside as yard was weedy. Back yard has a 2-3 foot strip along back fence and along garage that was all over grown weeds. Overall I would rent it again so nothing drastically wrong. Like I said, we had fun. ##### STina H.
