Great location, close to pier/beach access. Matt quick to respond. The oven has been updated! The home is older which gives it some quirks, overall would stay again.

This is a nice property in a great location. Priced very well. Needs a few updates but very comfortable. Be sure to walk down to the 19th Street boardwalk over Davis Canal... stunning, especially at sunset. Easy walk to the beach access and pier.

Great location! The door lock didn’t work (wrong code?), the stove had several burners out, and there were dirty dishes put away as clean. Older house but otherwise clean.

This property was fine for our purpose. Even though the property is dated and basic, it was not too far from the beach access and fairly close to local establishments (grocery stores and restaurants).

Had an appliance issue pretty early in the stay which was taken care of in a timly manner. Matt was very responsive and very helpful. I would stay again. If your a dog person then you will love the house as it has characteristics of a dog owners home. You have to stay to see what I mean.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was great and it allowed us to bring our dogs. The house itself was not. Felt dirty as soon as we arrived. One of the beds had a huge stain on the sheet. We were told we could find a clean sheet in the closet, but it didn’t fit well. The ceiling plaster was chipping away and crumbling. The freezer door wouldn’t stay closed. Some of the burners on the range only worked part of the time. When a cockroach appeared coming out of the recliner, we knew we were in for a long week. Disappointed with the condition of the house.

Perfect little vacation house

Well maintained and fully equipped property that is walking distance from the beach and pier! It was perfect and we enjoyed our stay! I can’t forget to mention the awesome balcony that was perfect for star gazing and relaxing while listening to the waves crash!

Awesome location-Perfect porch

Great location for 2-6 people (3 bedrooms/2bath) and dogs with easy access to the beach, grocery stores, and shops. Fantastic deck to greet the morning sun and relax and look at the stars at night. Host included linens and towels which was a big plus. So grateful to find an affordable house that is walking distance to the beach that allows pets.

Lacking cleanliness

We really loved the location of this property. The property needs many updates but I could over look that if the house was clean. Hair on the sheets, food and such on the carpets. The vinyl floors were very dirty. The owners response was he would tell the cleaners but no one came to fix the problem.

OKI KYIA is A-Ok!

This charming 3 BR 2BA is perfect for our young grandchildren. The distance to beach was not too far for a wagon ride(which one was available but we took our own). April is perfect time to visit as weather was perfect. Plenty of towels, Kurig was a sweet surprise, and all the necessity appliances worked!

Home away from Home

We really enjoyed staying at this house! We had plenty of space for my family to all be comfortable, plus an open area to all sit together in the living room and dining space. Middle of the week we had really bad storms, but the house held strong. It was a short walk to the beach access and the pier. The kiddos rode their bikes throughout the neighborhood and I felt quite safe about letting them do so. Overall, we had a wonderful time. i would defiantly consider renting this house again in the near future!
