Great property with great views all around. Rented the property for my family’s yearly beach trip, and for the first time, no one had any complaints about the house! The property was well maintained, and the owner was prompt to respond to any minor issues. The only bad thing was having to leave! Would definitely recommend this property!

Great property! Ideal location for a large group; easy access to the beach; well-stocked kitchen; plenty of outdoor funiture by the pool; downstairs refrigerator came in very handy. Host was extremely responsive.

Love this house. Big enough for our 18 crew and always in great shape. Updated floors this year looked great. We'll be back!
6 / 10Average·Jul 2023
Papa's Porch is in a great location on the island and has beautiful views on the both the front and back porches. The pool, although a little on the small size, met our needs well. Communication with owners, both before and during the trip, was excellent. All that being said the house was on the disappointing side. From the beginning...the elevator repair people were at the house when we arrived. After working to repair it we were told it wasn't going to happen during our trip. However, on the day before we left the repairmen returned to get the broken part from the elevator. The said they were going to repair it and put it back on the next day so the elevator would be working for the next tenants. Why wasn't this be done for us? We had to contact the maintenance or owner numerous times. 1st floor AC stopped working, lots of burnt of light bulbs, front door handle fell off, 1/2 bath toilet got clogged. The kitchen needs a complete organization. The furniture is worn out. We were given 1 set of towels per person, 2 kitchen towels and crunchy sheets. Papa's Porch could be spectacular, but as is it is just average. No one wants to spend their vacation calling about constant issues and having repair people in and out of their rental.
