The views are incredible! The house is everything you see in the pictures. We had plenty of room for everyone. We have booked this house again for June!- Posted: 4/6/2025
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely home! Very spacious & entertaining & very very clean. The kids enjoyed movie night and the air hockey. We all enjoyed the board games available. We'll be back next year for sure!- Posted: 3/27/2025
We stayed at this property and played in a Women’s golf tournament at Island Pointe GC. Very Nice- Posted: 3/15/2025
This home was so nice. The view from every window across the back was beautiful. Kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to prepare our Thanksgiving day meal. We had 6 adults and 2 children (ages 7 & 10) and the accommodations were perfect. The kids loved the game and theater room. We had a few issues when we first arrived, the internet was down so we couldn't get any tv service (line had been cut by the construction crew working on a house next door). There were a few other minor things but the owner of the home (not the property manager) came and stayed until AT&T made the repair on internet line. He didn't leave until he was sure all tv's worked properly and some of the other issues had been corrected. Things I think the property manager should have addressed before our arrival. The owner couldn't have been any nicer, and has a beautiful home that we enjoyed so much.- Posted: 11/30/2024
