I ended up staying with my friends at The Grand Harbor next door however, I did go through the cabin and found it to be super clean and inviting. All the necessities and amenities one would need were there. AC was working well cooling the place down. The view from the covered porch is amazing!!! Saw and heard so many birds which I love. Jennifer continued to check in to see if we needed anything and responded quickly if we contacted her.

Directions for parking not clear. People already there tried to take our space and theirs, rude. Bathtub had dead bugs and roach eggs. The tub is an accident waiting to happen. The old style, no mat, nothing, I almost fell the first time I used it, SUPER SLICK! I sent a message to the owner telling her how dangerous it was, she said they’d bring a mat, never happened, no follow up. The air conditioner in the bedroom was absolutely filthy, full of dust, buttons pushed so many times they broke inward. I took pictures of it, it was so bad. For some reason I was blocked from leaving a review on the site. I even called the site managers to ask why, mainly I was afraid of the shower situation for the next guests, especially seniors. View was nice, but not worth it.
