Close enough to perfect

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: If you want posh, go to the Ritz. If you want a true authentic lowcountry experience, this is the place. The dock is topnotch, the home has all the space you need, the wrap-around porch is irresistible, kitchen is stocked and the 5ft long yeti kept the beer cold all week! Can't think of one complaint except we had to go home.
