Perfect Getaway
This trip was different in that there was a tropical storm and the streets were a bit flooded. We planned correctly with groceries and had a nice time fishing and watching the the bay from the porch.

Fishing and kayaking adventure
We loved the fishing and kayaking! The enclosed upper deck was great for our little ones. The green light was a great way to observe the sea life. The community pool and playground were really nice. The beach is so close too! Highly recommend!!

Springbreak Fishing Spit
Had an amazing time at this house. Everything was as expected and the location could not be better. Tons of outdoor deck space and everyone loved the open lawn next to the house. The location was perfect for families that want to fish or kayak into the bay. Todd was an amazing host and super responsive to messages in a timely manner. Absolutely nothing bad to say about this house. We will most definitely be back.

Needs some attention
We chose this rental because of the excellent reviews, but we think some improvements could be made. The main door can’t be securely locked - someone could just push the door open even though it’s locked, the dishwasher is not firmly attached and kept leaning forward, only 3 windows have screens on them, there are no blinds or shades in the main family area so no privacy, rust on fixtures in the bathroom, and a shortage of flatware for meals. For the price we expected higher standards.

60th Wedding Anniversary
My family thoroughly enjoyed our weekend at your house. Everything was just as described and better. We enjoyed fishing off the deck and using the crab traps. We all had comfortable beds and plenty of room to spread out. My parents had a wonderful 60th anniversary celebration. We will definitely stay there again! Thank you so much! We also enjoyed Shrimp NStuff food truck right down the road and had a nice dinner at West End Marina. Thanks again!

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful stay in Jamaica beach. The house was very clean. Everything was very well stocked. The kitchen had nice dish ware which isn’t always a thing in a rental. The property manager was quick to respond on any questions. The location was also very nice. The view is great and the lagoon area is nice for calmer waters for kayaking/paddle boards. The outdoor area is great - plenty of seating and space for everyone. We would stay here again.

Ideal Property
This property is beautiful, clean, in a fantastic location, stocked with everything you need and more. Ideal for families with children (teenagers would love it), given the big decks/seating areas, the outdoor TV, the large room/bathroom downstairs, games, kayaks, volleyball net, etc. Also lovely for a smaller group looking for plenty of space/relaxation. We stayed over Thanksgiving, hosting family for dinner, and it was perfect and had plenty of space for everyone. Even though it rained 4 out of 5 days, we enjoyed every day. Will definitely stay here again. Can only imagine the fun kids would have here during the spring/summer. Absolutely recommend.
