Family vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love staying at Snuffy's place. This is our second year staying here. The canal provides so much fun for the family. My kids love to bring the paddle boards and just hang out on the canal. The beach is only a few minutes walk away for our beach days. My only complaint is the seating. The table is not big enough for the whole family.

Metal pin sticking up to far in yard.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The only issue we had, was a metal stake sticking up which we believe was a boundary marker. My son accidentally stepped in it and was cut by it and had to see a clinic for a tetanus shot and bandages w/boot. Probably should be hammered down a bit more.
