Excellent Stay

The furniture is comfortable. It's a very cozy home. The unit is close to everything. We brought our boat. The boat dock was great and right around the corner from East Pass. Vacasa staff was immediately responsive and helpful for the few questions we had. Our stay was for 10 days. This place did not disappoint.

Fantastic property! Beach gate code does not work!

Everything about the property was wonderful. The location on the canal is beautiful. The house is well appointed, nicely furnished, plenty of room, and was very clean. CAUTION - the beach access code that you are provided the day before your arrival does not work. You must use a key card!!! This is located in the drawer in the kitchen. I only found this out by looking for a pizza cutter and there it was!!! I emailed Vacasa about the beach gate code and they didn't mention the key card at all.

Family Vacation

The property itself was great with amazing views of the harbor. Beach access was difficult to find. I would suggest leaving instructions for guests. Beach access code did not work. Luckily the neighbors were friendly and helped us find the beach access and gave us the correct code. The bikes were a plus especially for the teenagers who like to go back and forth several times a day. DO NOT use the washing machine. It left huge stains all over our clothes and I unfortunately had already ran two loads of newly purchased beach clothes. We traveled with all of our teenagers and it ruined lots of expensive clothing. We contacted the manager several times. Initially they said they would send someone to look at the washer which never happened. The last time I contacted them, I received a response saying sorry for your trouble.

Great Place!

The townhouse was beautifully decorated just as shown. The furniture was in great condition and super comfortable. The proximity to the beach was a plus! The owner Mathew and the staff at Vacasa were so kind and helpful. We enjoyed every minute of our stay!

Nice and quiet!

Really enjoyed our stay, as a family of 5 we had plenty of room to spread out after the beach. Will be staying again for sure!
