Location is fabulous!! The house is clean and very comfortable! Host thought of everything a vacationer would need! Short walk to the other side of the island! The only thing I would recommend is an update on the mattresses! We had a great time! Thank you

Great location

Home was more cottage style and could use a few updates. Beds were not excellent but I didn’t lose sleep over it. Overall, the location was great and it served us well.

Amazing property and view

The house was really nice. We definitely spent more time outside than in. It was nice having the big patio facing the water and the private access to the beach.

Perfect Honeymoon spot

My wife and i wanted a nice quiet stay with a breath taking view and we got just that. Very quaint house, very minimalistic, but well spaced out. Private beach on the bay side and minutes feom everything.

Loved it for the most part

I loved the view. It was clean. My kids enjoyed themselves. The mattresses could use some updates and the AC could use some work, the shower heads weren’t the best but other than that I would rent again!!

Beautiful

Loved the views. The outdoor furniture is scarce now. With a picnic table and 2 chairs. The mattresses were uncomfortable and the shower heads kinda sucked. But other than that we loved it. Loved being on the water. It was quiet and relaxing.

Midway to West end beach or East end boat ramp/ferry. We like the private beach area facing the bay view. House is nicely furnished with the comfort of home. Will highly recommend to others.

Perfect location

Great view of the bay and a short walk to the gulf side. The place was clean and comfortable. Only complaint was the mattresses. Like other reviews have said they are pretty bad. I’d at least recommend a mattress topper if nothing else.

We booked this house due to being just steps from the water. The beds and stove as well as the side door need replacing asap and this house will be way better. Of these things get done soon we will book this house again for next year on our vacation. Every thing else was spot on.

So great!

We loved the proximity to a private bayside beach, hardly any waves (great for small kids!), cleanliness and comfort of the house, and great price. The public beach was easy to walk to as well. My only complaints would be that the listing said there were spices stocked and there were none (and the only store on the island only carried giant containers of salt and pepper), and the WiFi was spotty (hard to connect to smart tv, but this wasn’t a big deal). Also, just fyi, standard baby gates won’t fit the width of the deck stairs, so plan accordingly with babies and toddlers. Other than those minor details, it was a great house and a great vacation!
