When we arrived we found everything to be better than advertised. Everything we needed was there. We loved the decor and the layout. The game room was so perfect for our kids. It was comfortable and clean. We saw dolphins in the bay every morning and fished black tip shark at dusk. The only questions we had were answered very quickly. Beachball Properties were easy to get in touch with and always responded. The whole process was just simple and friendly. We will be coming back next year and will contacting Beachball again, hopefully for the same house. It was so refreshing to stay somewhere that didn't feel like we were ending our day, but coming home.

Loved this spot on the bay. The house was beautiful and clean. Enjoyed the game room playing pool with my husband. We also enjoyed fishing off the pier. We caught trout, redfish, croakers and catfish using live shrimp and crabs. We also enjoyed our time at the beach.

Great Family Retreat

The property had enough room for everyone to relax. From playing pool, to cooking, and especially fishing, there was something for everyone. The covered dock was a favorite for our amateur anglers. We had beautiful views over the bay and lots of variety of fish were biting. We are already planning our next stay!

The best time.

My kids, husband, and I had the best time. This was our first annual beach trip, we generally go to the lake. We loved the peacefulness of the bay while enjoying a very short drive to a public beach when we wanted. We are very much looking forward to next year.

Fantastic property. Very quiet and relaxing, just what we were looking for in a rental. The fishing was also fantastic and if you enjoy dolphin watching, its worth the stay. Only issue, was the road into it was a bit rough and unfinished and kind of hard to find. Some of the party had to do a few passes before locating the correct turn in. It looks like new development so that should be resolved hopefully soon. Definitely would rent again.

Pros and Cons

Pros is covered pier, outside shower and garage loading and unloading is great for weather reasons. Cons Polyester sheets way too large for bed and HOT, only non-stick cookware for use, No working Kuerig; need usb outlets for charging and stepping stones to pier would keep so much sand out of the house.

Everything was perfect / except ants in the back yard

It was one of the best family times. The customer service was very friendly. The house was very nice and well organized. sunset and sunrise a unique view from the back porch Only a small accident during our stay my little son was bitten by many ants he stepped on an ant pile in the back yard, to whom it may concern, if they could do something with the ant pile to prevent future ant bites to other children or even adults. His trip was ruined by those ants.

Secluded Relaxation

Property was as advertised. Arrived the door code did not work an hour to get in. Once in the HVAC system was on a timer which was not acceptable for us a day to fix. The cable and internet were not operational took a day to fix. Once we worked through the initial problems the stay was very enjoyable.

Just ok...

Overall, the home was just okay. It was noticeably not very clean when we arrived. For example, there was several clumps of hair in the master shower, master tub had debris from previous use in it. We had an issue with the AC while there, but it was promptly fixed. There were other small things like remotes not working properly for TV, stove would not preheat, master toilet is not sealed to floor... We did really enjoy the bay and the dock. Overall, just needs some updating/maintenance and more thorough cleaning.

Honestly

Location and home were beautiful. 3bedroom 2bath pretty much accessible. Beds were super comfy with exception of the hide a bed in game room children wouldn’t even sleep on it. Game room very nice for kiddos. Everything you could ask for as far as furnishings. House was not that clean. Rugs were filthy. We spent a day and a half cleaning before we left. Room were all cleaned and vacuumed. Rugs were all washed and clean. The trash wash the pits when we arrived on trash can was full and at the road. Thursday we took both cans out still no pick up. I sent beachball a text they said they would check into it but we left on Sunday trash never picked up. If they just really did their jobs well it would have been awesome.

No peace and quiet here!

We started with the door code not working, then the internet password wrong. We were looking for a quiet relaxing place to stay. The pictures showed a house with a house adjacent on one side and an empty lot on the other side situated on the bay. Reality was they were building a house on the empty lot(no mention of this). For a month we experienced the noise of pounding nails(sometimes 7:00 am), loud radios blasting, people walking in the backyard randomly, a maintenance person adding a door on a outside shower on the house we were in. Our driveway was blocked with workers' trucks. We experienced framers, roofers, plumbers, electricians, furnace folks, and landscapers. We were asked if the foliage at the road could be trimmed. We ended up leaving early and there was a snowstorm up North if that gives you a sense of our anguish. What is your policy on refund adjustment for misrepresentation of a property?

Good vacation, with slight issues.

We loved the property and the house. We were not happy with having to constantly deal with the neighbor to the west. The house next door is under renovation, and according to prior reviews a year ago, was under construction then as well. The neighbors pier was being worked on as well. The owner of that house insisted on constantly coming on to our property and pier. We tried fishing on our pier, and he was just standing on our pier watching us. We would get up in the morning to loud power washers, loud generators, hammers and saws, as well as a crew working on the pier with loud water jets. Every time we exited the house in to the back yard, and neighbor would immediately come out and just stare at us and then would eventually make his way in to our backyard. At night, he installed two bright spotlights, which lite uo our back porch, back yard, west bedroom, and living room. These lights were left on all night. We contacted Beachball Managements through email, and they responded saying they would discuss the issues when they got in at 9:00am, and would get back to us. We never heard back from Beachball. Other than lack of any type of privacy, we made due and enjoyed our vacation.
