Barely enough
This house is at an amazing location, with a great layout for families. Our complaints were trivial but real. We stayed a week, ran out of the one ply toilet paper rather quickly and no refills at all,if you plan to cook bring everything especially salt and oeoper

Beautiful Vacation Home
Beautiful home right on the beach. Could not ask for better views. The pool was small but just the right size for floating and relaxing while listening to the ocean.
The staff at Dauphin Realty was also courteous and professional.

Just steps to the gulf!
We had a great stay for spring break! The location is perfect, just steps from the gulf. We enjoyed the pool as the water was still a little cool in the ocean. The home was very spacious with comfortable furniture and beds, large rooms with storage options for luggage, and an awesome deck for sunrise and sunset views. Each bedroom Had an en suite bathroom Which was great. We were very comfortable with the space and seating in the main living area as well. We cooked most meals at the home and enjoyed having a grill under the deck as an option for preparing meals. We had four kids on the trip (10, 10, 8, 4.5) and they loved digging in the sand right off the house, crab hunting, searching for shells at low tide, and swimming in the pool and the gulf. The home and appliances definitely have some wear, there were several Broken and loose chairs/bar stools, most of the shelving in the freezer was broken. The home had very thin comforters on the bed and no additional blankets at all. it was in the 40s and 50s overnight, and we were wanting some throw blankets for the couch and extra blankets to make the beds warmer in the evening. Would suggest bringing extra throw blankets. Overall, we had a great trip and enjoyed the space and the location very much! 4 stars only because there’s some basic maintenance and repair work needed that would have brought our experience to a 5 star.

Amazing place! Will be back
I am a frequent VRBO renter and this property was 5 star! The pictures do not do it justice. The property is beautiful and well stocked with everything you need. Plus a pool is going in so that will be an added bonus. Beach area is great and we love how quiet this part of the island is. Great rental

Beautiful Home with a view
Beautiful home and well equipped for our family. The view of the gulf is stunning. Kitchen appropriately stocked with our need, was very comfortable. Internet quite inconsistent and was a challenge at times for some of us who were also working.

Spring Break 2021!
We rented this property because of the pictures on VRBO. But it is even MORE beautiful in person. The ceilings are so high, the decor is beautiful, and it is the perfect amount of steps to the beach! The house is located on a quiet end of the island and allows for wonderful beach walks.
This was our first VRBO experience, and it could not have been better!
Thank you for a wonderful visit!
