Great stay
The best thing about this property was the beds. Omg they were so comfortable. It was very nice and somewhat clean. The bathroom with the king bed was spotless but the other bathroom was dirty, it had fingerprints and hair in the sink and tub. I cleaned it so our friend could use it.

Good but not great
The cabin itself is nice, but it could have been cleaner. For example, there was a half eaten lunchable in one of the bedroom drawers. Dirty dishes in the cabinets, dried food on the dining table. Also, the yard was extremely overgrown, and we could not enjoy the property other than inside the cabin. I enquired about the lawn being cut, the guest contact said she would check on it, and never responded past that. The code I was given to enter the property, was not correct. When I called the guest contact to ask about the code, I was asked not to call, to only text, because she too busy. We will not be interested in booking the property again.

Very enjoyable
Not to far from the beach walk or drive. Big enough for 4 people or a couple more. A couple things were broken when we got there but Stevi our property manager was amazing at fixing the situation plus our maintenance guy was a phone call away. Definitely enjoyed it
