Great Location, clean & comfortable with lots of attention to detail
The property was as described. Candy, our host, was on hand to provide an orientation tour at check in and was readily available throughout our stay. While there is no true kitchen, there is a gas grill, a hot plate, an electric skillet, a toaster oven, & a microwave for meal prep.There is a full-size refrigerator. There is EVERYTHIING you could need to cook - utensils, measuring cups pots, pans, and baking dishes. The only real challenge is the tiny sink for cleanup. Candy has provided anything and everything you need for a comfortable stay: towels, robes, extra blankets, etc. And if you forgot to pack it, never fear, it is stocked and ready for your use: bug spray, suntan lotion, aloe, tweezers, laundry detergent... I can't think of anything missing. During our stay, sadly the hot tub began leaking and we only got to use it once. Candy & Michael kept us informed about their attempts to get repairs done. We came back from an outing one day to find a bag of gourmet treats and a bottle of wine waiting on the doorstep for us. They offered us use of their kayaks and Candy worked hard to convince us to try pickle ball - she was willing to be our instructor! We were not convinced :). They are great hosts! The beach is a quick walk across the street and across a parking lot. Wonderful restaurants such as Garlic and The Treehouse are within walking / biking distance. Easy 30-minute drive to Blue Springs state park. Also, a great Farmer's Market on Saturday mornings on Canal Street.

Great location for us…. Just far enough from the busy nite life but in the middle of great dining, convenient shopping and easy beach access! We stayed at the site for 3 days before we even drove anywhere, hosts were available but not intrusive! We will definitely be back:)

We were completely satisfied from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. Candy and Mike have a beautiful rental home and the location is amazing being close to the beach, downtown shopping, restaurants, and a grocery store. The outdoor living space is so peaceful and secluded. You definitely do not feel like you are in someone’s back yard at all. The outdoor shower was hands down one of the most amazing amenities. The rental itself is spacious and stocked full of just about anything you would need. Can’t wait to stay here again! Thank you, Candy and Mike, for being such amazing hosts!

So Many Amenities!
This place is so rich with amenities we weren't able to sample them all during our week's stay! Loved soaking in the hot tub, riding bikes on the beach, and relaxing in the outdoor screened living room in the evenings surrounded by a jungle of bamboo. Had we had a little more time, a paddle in the kayaks would have been great, followed by an afternoon in the hammock and a dinner grilled on the patio with a fire in the fire pit. Walking distance to everything. Candy and Mike are wonderfully accomodating and kind.

Great hosts, great unit, great location!
Candy and Mike are awesome hosts. They lent us their bikes and even kayaks, and shared lots of great local information. The unit is very quiet and comfortable, with access to lovely outdoor spaces. It can be as private as you would like. The basic kitchen suites our needs as we prepared virtually all our meals during our weeklong stay. Publix is very nearby, as is a local fish market. The beach is a stone’s throw away — so convenient! Again, the hosts offered up beach chairs and other gear for a great time at the beach. Can’t say enough about what a great stay this was, from the initial communication with the hosts upon booking, to the checking out process. Highly recommend!
