This is our third time staying here. We love the house, especially with the recent updates to the bathrooms, the close proximity to the beach, and the private pool, which was also redone. Mary is the best host that we have ever dealt with and she is extremely accommodating. We hope to stay here again in the future.

Mary was a fantastic host! She was easily accessible with a quick response on anything we needed. The house was clean, cozy and the pool was perfect. It had all the kitchen items and necessities needed and then some. Was a great location…Seaside and public beach access were an easy 5 min golf cart ride! We will be back! Thank you for a great stay!

Great Vacation Home

Awesome location , lots of extra things throughout the house. I definitely recommend checking in to actually see what you need from Publix that is located less than a mile away.

Highly recommend this house! Great location with an easy walk to the beach or into Seaside! The manager was very responsive from start to finish! The house itself was very clean and stocked with anything you could need on a beach vacation! The pool was perfect after a day at the beach or at night! We rented a golf cart which was also great to have and plenty of parking at the house!
