Fall Break

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: The house is excellent for large groups and in very good shape. This was our second time at SP and 8th time at CB. We really enjoy the yard for soccer, badminton, goofing around. We also like being close to the shops for ice cream, pizza etc. The beach is a close walk and the SP chairs are directly in front of the stairs (very nice). Minor issues: -there is some sort of generator in between the house and the Meeting House that runs 24/7. You can't hear it in the house but it's a low level hum outside. -we could not get the TVs in the bedrooms to connect to the internet. The management company said they were sending someone out to take a look but that did not happen. Neither of these things was a big deal and we would 100% stay here again. It's a great house.

“We came back a second time”

So nice to have a house big enough for 14 last year and 16 this year. Very comfortable, cheery spaces, and additional helpful amenities like towels and beach gear. Perfect with few exceptions; back door lock failed during stay but had helpful phone assistance; could have used another refrigerator; porch fans had one speed, slow; sprinklers ran every evening leaving backyard unusable at end of the day and bushes blocked lake view; sofa sleeper mattress very uncomfortable, its sheets were hidden; can’t read microwave, display not bright. None of these would keep us away next time. We had an enjoyable trip.

Favorite Carillon Beach House

We loved this house! The kitchen is well stocked and the house was very clean. It is very kid friendly especially for our 6 grandchildren ages infant to 5 years. ( baby gates, pack n play, toddler cups, bowls and plates, toys, etc…) The layout of this house was perfect for our family and we have stayed in several great houses in Carillon. One of our favorite features was the ice maker. Crushed ice at the beach was so good! We loved everything about this house! It felt like home!

Sittin Purdy had us doing just that!

There was plenty of room for the 14 of us. The house provided many areas for “catching up” on each family’s news. The screened porch was popular as well as the lovely sunroom extension off the living area where we set up a puzzle to work on during a few rainy hours. The large dining table was perfect for dinners next to the roomy kitchen with ample counter space for food serving. Loved the bricked laundry room with space for everything needed for the beach. A very comfortable house!

Sittin’ Purdy was perfect!

Amazing weekend for my daughter’s wedding in Carillon! Sittin’ Purdy was the PERFECT location and size for our large family to all be together to celebrate! The large kitchen and spacious, open floor plan made visiting together so fun and enjoyable yet everyone could retreat to their own space for down time. The screened porch and backyard added another dimension of entertaining space - especially for the kids! Overall, I don’t think we could have chosen a better place! I do recommend a golf cart for getting to and from the beach - especially with young kids! While it’s an easy, breezy walk…the little ones enjoyed the ride and we enjoyed tooling around the neighborhood checking out all the beautiful homes and not having to lug all the beach paraphernalia.

Wonderful home with great attention to detail

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: Sittin'Purdy made our 4 generation family beach week a success! We ate in for the majority of our meals and the chef's Kitchen was a dream. Wolf appliances are now on my "wish list". The mud room was a genius idea, and it was so well equipped with everything from beach towels, boogie boards, sand toys, coolers, straw beach hats, and even a wagon to haul it all in. These are all items that we usually have to purchase and leave behind because we're flying. The large back yard was a great perk for our evening of yard games, they even supplied a corn hole game. We appreciated the sonic ice machine too! You can tell that lots of planning went into the details of this home. We look forward to returning to Sittin'Purdy!

A Gem in Carillon

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 recently returned from a 2 week stay in Sittin Purdy. Our daughter got married in Carillon during our stay. Sittin Purdy is a beautifully appointed home, perfect for entertaining, large enough for a family to spread out and relax, play games in the back yard, or sitting quietly on the back porch with beautiful views of the lake. We also love Carillon Beach, rental of golf carts is easy, the beach is private and easy to access, and several pools to choose from. We will definitely be back!

Exceptional- Literally, a home away from home

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: The home is beautiful and completes the package for the perfect wedding venue- Carillon Beach. We rented the house for the week of my daughter's wedding, and the house was complete with everything needed. The setting is gorgeous, and the home is clean, immaculate and decorated like a model home. It is evident that the owners invest in the property and maintenance thereof. The property manager was friendly and quick to respond to any need. The home is a short walk to the pool and beach, and the reserved beach chairs make for an easy beach trip. Additionally, it was picture perfect for the bridal portrait sessions, and the photos are spectacular. The photographer and videographer commented repeatedly about the ambiance of the home related to the portraits and video. Literally, the home felt like our own and set the stage for a magnificent weekend. The convenience to the Meeting House and Village Green was priceless. I have recommended the home to many families and will return. You will not be disappointed.
