Wonderful time..loved the property! There were 7 of us ages 71 to 6 years old. Property had perfect space for us all. Loved the kitchen table..plenty of seating. The house is very bright and great natural lite. We loved both outdoor decks and everyone loved the porch swing. Will definitely stay here next time we come to Port A. Also property management was wonderful to work with! 😊
We enjoyed our stay very much. Large rooms for our family of 7 and our little chihuahua Bella to choose from. Offered amenities in the kitchen if your wanting to cook at home and extra bath linens. Nice decor throughout the house. Would definitely stay again.
Nice house but not very clean. The AC filter was black and collapsed inside the vent due to a lack of maintenance. The AC vent had to be removed and power washed. Black stains were on the downstairs bathroom ceiling.
This house truly has it all. It is a perfect space for young adults to enjoy. The bunk room is functional and spacious and the second living space upstairs next to the primary bedroom really serves a great purpose. The kitchen is fully stocked with large bowls and platters. The dining table is nice and big to seat everyone. It truly is a great space. The only negative was the construction on the houses across the street. They were working hard quite early and the noise lasted all day long.
The house is absolutely beautiful and more than enough room for our family vacation! The kitchen table and kitchen were the best parts! Of course there is pros and cons. Cons were the couches were torn, but I emailed them pictures just to let them know they were like that when we got there. Some of the vents were moldy, all the TV’s except the living room one would not connect to the internet, and lots of mosquitoes downstairs. All in all we had the best time and the house was amazing, any questions we had they were very quick to respond. The house is very close to everything.

Disappointing
It was not clean. Sheets had marks on them, floors were sandy and dirty, the property needs a thorough cleaning and repairs. The doors were hard to close and the handle didn't work. Outside, we had to pick up 3 large bags of dog poo because apparently no one picks up after their dog and the property doesn't check. It was disgusting. The property is one block from the sewer treatment plant so smell was an issue. The pictures do not portray the shape the property is in. I was embarrassed I took my family there because I expected , at a minimum, for it to be clean.
The house was very clean when we arrived.The kitchen was well stocked with everything that you need. The house was very cool when we arrived (which was great since it has been so hot!). The owners sent all the information we needed a day ahead of time and followed up to make sure we received it. They even sent suggestions for restaurants and different things to do in the area.
The property was perfect. Clean as can be and had everything as advertised. The manager answered questions immediately. We have already booked it again.
The house was spot on and we enjoyed our stay tremendously!! The kitchen was awesome, we cooked in every night, bathrooms well stocked, and everything was fresh. Needless to say, we loved our stay and would stay there again!!
Everything was great! Very clean and plenty of space for everyone. My only complaint was one of the upstairs bedroom bathrooms can lock you in. We had it happen twice to us while staying. My husband had to get the door open with a library card. He said it's an easy fix tho.
This property was very nicely decorated and had plenty of rooms for 8 adults and 3 kids. The property manager was very communicative and helpful. Upon arrival there was a staircase trim board loose. They offered to fix it but it was no big issue so we moved on. I would rate the property higher but for the price we paid I expected a better kept property. During our stay we had yellow stained sheets on several beds. The bottom bathroom door was tough to shut and there was mold on the bathroom ceiling by the vents. The kitchen pantry door was coming loose from its roller hangers and the kitchen faucet was damaged. All the hand sinks including the kitchen sink had very low water pressure. The showers had excellent pressure. The most concerning issue was there was a leak coming from the bottom of house under the porch. It kept a constant puddle of water on the driveway that was very slippery. This was separate from the AC condensate drain that drips down from the exterior soffit which is normal. We assume there is a drain line leak or water line leak in the house. There was a squeegee available downstairs so the issue must have been present for a while. Overall we enjoyed our stay outside of those issues. The AC was cold, showers were hot and overall the property was nice. With charging this much for a rental property the maintenance and cleanliness should be up to par.
Everything, from the location, to the comfort to the little details in the home we're perfect. We enjoyed our stay very much! Definitely will be coming back.
Modern/upscale. Comfortable. All amenities well thought out. Great location for us, walking distance to nature preserve. In a quiet neighborhood. A nicer home.

Nice Place
A nice home that has lots of amenities and then some. Well thought out details. Walking distance to the Nature Preserve. Enjoy looking out towards the ship channel. We wish we had stayed longer. We have stayed in many places over the years in Port A…this is one of the better places.

Incredible House
The house was beautiful, clean and perfect for a family getaway.
We have stayed at many rental properties, and this one topped them all! Such a seamless process from reservation to checkout.
Everything was spotless, and the property was exactly as described. The decor was beautiful and beachy, and we really enjoyed just walking through the house and taking it all in!
Plenty of room for our family of 8 adults, with a bedroom to spare.
Communication with the hosts was fabulous. We didn’t have to ask a single question because all information was provided and laid out so well.
We will DEFINITELY be back, and highly recommend this rental property!
