This house was perfect for our group, adequately stocked with necessities and clean home. Owners were very friendly to deal with.

This house worked out great for my group of golf buddies. The location can't be beat. Walking distance to Dairy Queen, the local bar, and a distillery next door. Will definitely book here again for future trips.

Clean, good location, located by Wallgreens, bar and grill is across the street and next to a new distilary, Dairy Queen is across the street as well. Has eight beds and the kitchen was nice but the WiFi didn't work.

We enjoyed the house. It was very spacious and accomadated our entire group with ease. The location was great. The only issue we had was that there was no A/C in the house. It was not noted in the description and we didn't find out until we got there. There was lots of box fans to put in the open windows and luckily the weather was cool enough that we were just fine. If it happened to be 90 degrees, we would have had a much larger complaint. Overall we had an awesome time and would consider coming back again

The positives: The place is very spacious, clean on the inside, clearly recently updated. Kitchen is well stocked and bathrooms feel very clean. They provided lots of fans which was nice. Negatives: No A/C, central or window units, which is livable, except that maybe half the windows are openable. Either they don’t have screens, or are painted over. As in literally the glass is painted on and the window is painted shut. Being there in the heat of July and not being able to open enough windows at night to cool off was not pleasant. When we arrived the outside trash was overflowing from the previous renters garbage and the lid not being able to be on at all. Which means by the end of the weekend trash was all over the yard from rodents and the neighbors were making remarks to us as the “renters” we needed to clean it up. It smelled to high heaven and we had to wait to put all our trash out until the garbage was collected on day 3 of our stay. And picking up previous tenants garbage because it was so nasty was also not pleasant and not what I want to be doing given how much we’d paid for this property. Last was it’s advertised with wifi, but it never worked and the Tv is Roku so unless we connected our phones to the tv it didn’t work. Multiple multiple attempts to communicate with the renters went mostly unanswered and the issue was never resolved. Also of note, no lamps or lights in living room, no bedside tables in any bedrooms.

We had plenty of room for eight guys and all of our gear. It was a great place to unwind after several rounds of golf in the area. We enjoyed the large living room and kitchen, which accommodated for big meals and plenty of room for playing cards and watching some football. The game room in the back was the icing on the cake! It was also really nice to take a short walk across the street to hit the local bar/restaurant instead of having to drive anywhere at the end of the night! The house was spotless and each of us had our own comfortable bed. The bathrooms were super clean and spacious. Plenty of towels and linens were provided. We were all very happy with our stay and plan to do it again next year for sure. Thank you!

Overall, this house worded well for our family trip. It is close to a beach with a playground, stores, and restaurants. The space in the house was great. Kids had there own room and game area. Our group had 5 kids between 7-10 years old, and the house did not feel cramped. There was enough room for the grown-ups and kids to spread out. The large dinning room table was great. The TVs worked well and the internet was good-as I had to take a zoom call one evening. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed, as we cooked breakfast and dinner each day. There is a charcoal grill in the backyard we used for burgers one night. Lots of parking spaces. So why a 4 star: There is not air conditioning-but there were lots of fans. The grass in the backyard was not cut-so it limited the use of that area-owner did respond-but did impact the kids ability to play in the back. It is not a quiet area-especially with keeping the windows open at night. Also, a few windows did not have screens on them-and we did not open them to avoid bugs in the house. I feel like this house is in the middle of updates, and once additional improvements are made it is going to be great!
