Overall Good Rental
Our family overall enjoyed the stay at Bay Leave. No real issues with the home, communication was good. The home / deck will need some updates in the next couple years - it was warm in the home (AC can only be set to 72), the main bed isn't very comfortable and the fridge doesn't cool super well. The stairs to access are rickety. You cannot follow the GPS directions, they will take you to the back of the house - the full time residents all around are not super friendly. Location was great for accessing the beach and for a short trip.

A perfect mix of rest and relaxation With access to the dock and short drive to the beach
We totally loved “Bay Leave”…. The house was perfect for my husband and I and our two dogs. Could’ve easily had a couple more people. The kitchen was well appointed and we enjoyed grilling grouper & burgers, baking crab cakes and much more. We loved having coffee in morning on the dock and watching the sunset every evening. Access to the beach was easy off of Veterans. Loved the peaceful setting and comfortable home. Thanks for sharing.

Great beach house!
We stayed here for a week and really enjoyed the house. It was the perfect location, away from the noise but close enough to everything. My only complaint would be more paper towels and toilet paper ( we had to buy more to last the week) and to provide shampoo, conditioner and body soap. Otherwise, we really enjoyed everything and hope to come back again!

Perfect Fall Getaway
This home was very comfortable and had everything we needed. It was nice having access to the laundry room! We enjoyed the pier access and fenced area for the dogs. The host was readily available to provide directions when we turned down the wrong street :) Would definitely recommend.

Relaxing
A relaxing place that was clean and comfortable! The bed was super comfortable too! The view and pier was really nice! The fenced in yard was big enough for our dog. The location was quiet. We took our 22’ bay boat and we were able to park it and move it around but it was a very tight fit. The tree limbs that hung down over the long driveway clipped the top of our t-top so I wouldn’t recommend taking a boat with a t-top or over 22’. We managed and did not get into anyone else’s property but it was very hard to do. Martha is always an excellent host! Thank you Martha!
