We had a great time, everything was as expected. Bed was comfortable (wish they had a king!), kitchen was well stocked, furniture was good. Would return again!
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
Overall was a good stay. House was cute, clean, plenty of linens, kitchen small but had what we needed. Mix up with LSV rental but was straightened out and also thought the house had bikes available as part of the home/price. Keurig did not work - they brought us a new coffee maker right away. Back screen door needs attention.

We enjoyed our stay. It was very clean and comfortable. The Keurig coffee machine did not work. So we missed our coffee in the morning.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2021
This home is good for pets and owners. We loved the screened porch and spent a good bit of time there. The dining table was perfect for family dinners and playing games. The home definitely needs a deep clean and updating. The available pans need to be replaced as well. The kitchen is functional, but only for one person. The location is really only driving distance to the beach. Overall the rental was accurate in the description for the most part.
