Reviewer Comments:
Overall, I am very happy with the unit. We have stayed there before and it is our favorite place. There were a couple of issues with spiders and silverfish. I already spoke to someone out it and she will be getting an exterminator to check the place and treat for pests. There are a couple of loose rails on the upper deck that need nailed down. Also, the ceiling fans were a bit fuzzy and the return air vents needed cleaned. Other than those minor issues. We are very happy with our stay and already have next year booked.

Reviewer Comments:
Vacation was awesome. One upgrade would be to have an Ethernet port accessible in each unit for access to the Internet via plug instead of just WiFi. Most units have Ethernet ports in the back of the Cable/TV/WiFi router. Apparently, my unit shares a connection with the adjoined unit and the Cable box is in their unit. So, I could not plug into an Ethernet port.

Great trip. House was in a good location, pool was nice , people were nice, the yard did have some trash that needed picked up and the ceiling fans need cleaned! I was not a fan of no lifeguards on the beach and people fishing at all hours of the day while we were swimming but, we just went to the pool.

The back unit #280 has a great view of the lighthouse and a natural vegetation hedge that contains all sorts of wildlife. We watched a rabbit there everyday as well as sparrows, catbirds, katydids and toads. My kids loved it! The unit has an outdoor shower, a waterhose and access to shared laundry under the house. I wasn't expecting those extras!! It's an awesome space. The decks could use some maintenance. Watch out for splinters and nails. Overall, we loved our stay and we'll be coming back next year!
Great place for 3 nights. Short walk to the beach and multiple places to eat in Buxton. Short drive to the point and Frisco. We will absolutely be back next yr.

Though weather did not cooperate with us. We had fun. The house was nice. Beds weren't as comfy as I like. Water pressure completely sucked. There were no drain covers for the baths, so the kids had to take showers. You can hear everything the neighbors on the other side of duplex do. Don't let this review discourage you. It was a good place to stay and just a small walk to beach! Plenty of restaurants and things to do within walking distance too!!
Unit was accurately portrayed in listing. It could have been a bit cleaner at check in, but wasn’t bad. It’s an older unit, in an older neighborhood but is close to the beach and everything you need.

We traveled down to Buxton from upstate NY for a family wedding and this was a perfect place to stay. Close to the church and reception hall. The short few minute walk to the water and sand was great! The cottage was what we were looking for our 3 night stay, updated and clean, we would definitely come back to this same place again in the future
