Can not brag enough!

The value/location/lodging was well above what I expected. The walk to the beach was such a short walk. Our dog was happy with the fenced-in area out back. All the restaurants are well within walking distance or a short drive. Plenty of sitting space and beds/bedding. We have Walmart and they delivered at 7 am every morning. i would most definitely stay here again!

Awesome beach house

The house was clean and comfortable. Access to the beach is right across the street. We loved sitting on the deck in the evenings watching the waves. The neighborhood is clean and safe. We had ten in our group, plenty of room for all of us.

Vacation

Perfect place for our rowdy crew and dogs! Not luxurious but just what we needed for family vacation. Lots of good memories made. Close to the beach—relaxing listening to the waves and directly across from the sailboat that washed ashore.

House was ok but Funiture very worn out and cushion coming apart, house very dated! No vertical blinds on front windows or dinning window, or patio door blinds, gas grill was rusted out and burner falling apart scared to use it! Had to use charcoal grill. Front deck wasn’t able to use and not in good condition and was told we couldn’t use it because needed work.not enough bed cover or quilts for beds.

Really bad service

House was not clean when we arrive 30 min after we where supposed to check in, the beds were not made sheets just pulled like if someone had just left, dirty towels all around the house, bathroom were dirty and garage baskets were full. Called twice to get someone to come clean the house for us but we ended up having to clean up ourselves, we couldn’t go to bed until after 3:30 am because we had to wash the bedding and towels before going to sleep. They finally showed up next morning at 930 am. Fridge doesn’t make ice either.

not what we expected

We stayed last year at this property and had a wonderful experience. We were excited to go back. The property was not in good shape. The Tv's did not work there were no curtains or shades on the windows, the back bedroom smelled like mold and we could not use it. The toilet was unstable in one of the bathrooms and we could not use it. We called 4 times and explained the situation and they told us that someone would call us back- but never did. I want to be compensated for this trip. We would NEVER of expected a property to change for the worse after just one year.

Perfect for our getaway

The house is pretty much what you see in the pictures. Plenty of room for a nice beach visit and reasonably comfortable. It is convenient to the beach entry across the street. We did not have a problem with bugs as others mentioned. The outside of the house seems reasonably well kept and going through some updates. The inside was adequately furnished and stocked including the kitchen. The description mentions 3 bathrooms, but we only found 2. There were only 2 of us so we didn’t really use the whole house. The light above the stove was not working so it was dark there. There is a fenced area behind the house, but a section of the fence is broken. The sofa in front of the window seems to have a couple of broken springs on the far left so it feels like sitting in a bucket. The dryer makes a horrible noise, and the door to the laundry room doesn’t close all the way so it’s loud. The wireless router kept disconnecting and would have to be reset a few times a day so that became annoying on rainy days. Some devices wouldn’t connect at all to the WiFi. A few areas to note. Vacasa uses a 10 digit door code for a door lock that times out quickly so if you have problems, enter it more quickly. We didn’t find a hair dryer in the house. If you walk your dogs, the house across the street has a yard full of sand spurs so if your dog starts yelling for no reason, check for sand spurs.

Nice location close to the. beach

Place was pretty nice on the inside. Loved it overall and loved the location. The exterior of the place does need a lot of work. It is the eyesore of the neighborhood. Also the deck you can go up to and enjoy the view of the ocean is pretty unstable and feels very unsafe so we did not use it

Overall Great Stay

Overall great stay. Property manager checked on us the first day and quickly addressed the couple of issues we had. This is a one level home, but does have a step down into the kitchen and one of the bathrooms. It has plenty of room, comfortable beds, easily sleeps 10-12, and is close to the beach. We had family staying for a wedding and were satisfied with the accommodations.

Great location and area to stay in. We had a great time, however definitely not enough dishes to cook with and the dog area: if they would expand it a little it would definitely be much better!

Wedding weekend

My family stayed here so we could be close to my son and his wedding party. Perfect location to the beach and a quiet street. House is a bit run down in the outside but inside was very roomy and updated. House was very well cleaned except the couch and carpet. Both had a very dog smell and the carpet had a lot of fur all over it, we had to air out the living room. The side porch was just ok and there was some kind of cage off the master bedroom with dog poop in it. We called it the prison. Very gross and horrible to look at. House would benefit from actual blinds, we used blankets in the big room to cover the windows. If these things were fixed I would 100% stay again.
