Really enjoyed the home and pool. Needs some minor maintenance and back yard needs some attention. Trash was not picked up on Thursday leaving us with an almost full trash can. Left trash can out all weekend and learned on Monday trash should had been picked up on Sunday and it wasn’t. Coffee maker is a Keurig which should be stated in lieu of coffee maker which lead me to think it was brew coffee maker. Needless to say I went and purchased me one. The fire pit was full of cigarettes butts and cigars, I’m not a smoker but the fire pit was cleaned up before we left. Overall the location and comfort of the home was good.
Cigarette butt’s and cigars
Broken blind and there was some broken molding up above.

Beautiful home

Very clean and modern home within 5 -6 blocks from beach. Pool was clean and clear. Although just my husband and Dog, this house would comfortably accommodate 2 families with children. Love the Doggie door, keeps the AC in the house. Beautiful breeze in back yard most of the time. Dollar general 4 blocks away that sells tons of household items and beer. Publix and Winn Dixie just 10 min drive off island. Had a fantastic time wish I could have stayed longer. U
