We had an amazing stay. The property was great with all the amenities we could ask for. Most of all the hosts were very accommodating and extremely helpful.
We had a wonderful stay. House was clean and neat. Everything was available that we needed. We loved the neighborhood and area. Golf cart was wonderful. Enjoyed using it to view the area. Beach was clean. Staff was polite and kind. Water is so clear you can see the ocean floor. Thank you so much. Can't wait to come back and enjoy the area and our new friends.
We really had a great time in this little community! My son and his friend used all the amenities! Neighbors were nice and helpful as well!! Very comfortable!
The property was great. I wish I had known about the additional fees, resort fee 75.00 and Boat fee 300,00. I did not know until a couple of days before we arrived. I was not expecting these additional fees.
Loved the property! First time ever to stay in Venture Out and I will definitely be back. Owner was great at responding to my questions. I highly recommend this property and if available when I go back I will probably stay there again. Very clean and comfy place to stay! 5 Stars!
The description and images were accurate. The golf cart was a great way to quickly hop over to the marina and to the beach; the kids loved it and wanted to ride it everywhere in the complex. The kitchen was well stocked with small appliances, so all we had to do was grab groceries. Loved having a washer and dryer, so we didn't need to pack a ton of clothes.
We came here for spring break with my two sons (12 and 9). The house is so clean and has everything that is needed! It was super close yo a heated pool and park. It was a short golf ride to a private beach and another private pool! Every day we would go to the beach and there were two chairs and an umbrella set up for us - it was heaven. Every question or request was answered timely by the owners. I would strong suggest renting this property if you’re looking for a nice relaxing stay!
Such a great spot for family beach vacations!! Loved the private beach access and golf cart. The area was wonderful with lots to do and we were very happy with the accommodations!
Our fourth visit to this property, and I don't see why we wouldn't continue to visit this amazing property in the future. Great hosts, great place, awesome location.
We had an amazing stay at this cottage in Venture Out! It was very clean and had every thing we needed in the fully stocked kitchen! Great place and we will definitely book again in the future!
We had a great stay here! There was small hiccups with the TVs which was not fun at all with small children and bad weather but the owner did all she could and was wonderful.
We will stay again!
We spent the week with family having the best time. We loved the property, super helpful owners, easy check in/out and close to the bay! VO also hosted activities for July 4th including fireworks!
Our family loves vacationing at Venture Out and using VRBO was a “plus” this year! This house is a great location, has a gas golf cart and all linens were provided. We will definitely book this house for our next Venture Out Vacay!
My wife and I visit Venture Out PCB 2-3 times every year but this is the first time we’ve rented from VRBO. The experience was fantastic and maybe easier than renting directly from VO. I will definitely check VRBO again especially for this property or any other property Caron may have for rent. She was great to work with!
The house was super clean and well maintained what made it cosy and welcoming. We felt like home from the beginning on!
The location close to the state park and the amenities in the community is really convenient. The golf cart provided made it easy and fun getting around.
We would definitely come back!
We enjoyed our stay here. The owners were very fast with communication. Our TV went out in the living area and they replaced it the next day. Very efficient and the property was very clean!
My boyfriend and I stayed here last week and we loved it!! It was absolutely perfect for us. Enough space for us and any guests, if we would have had some. The house is right next to the boat docks, fishing pier, pool and park. Very convenient, especially with the golf cart. Owner always happily answered any questions I had and made sure I received all the information ahead of time. The ONLY complaint we have was the mattress… it was very stiff and uncomfortable to us. My boyfriend has a bad back and said it felt like sleeping on a wood plank. Other than that, we had a great stay! Would highly recommend and will most likely stay again!!
Absolutely beautiful and perfect. A little hard for us with walking disabilities issues for the both of us. Gas golf cart we tried to use but was unsuccessful (not the units fault) we just couldn't get it to lock in place with the break. Definitely needs longer strings to turn the light and fan on in one of the bedrooms. Overall if we were in better shape it would have been perfect for us.
