It is a shame that this house is managed by Vacasa. They do not honor veteran or military discounts. Altogether the house is lovely however, the customer service and nightly rates could have been much better.

Our short stay
It was nice overall, things to consider if it’s not summer there is not an additional bathroom downstairs :/ i mean con on…… the BBQ has seen better days and needs some new parts or to be replaced. The kitchen living room is a lot bigger than the pictures give them credit. We would stay again.

Nice comfortable stay . Unfortunately the pool isn't heated like it stated on listing. But you could purchase for $50 a day extra to heat the pool. That was inconvenient and a little upsetting. But the property was fine .

Beach Trip
We’ve stayed at this beach house before so when we decided to go back to Port A, we thought of no other place we’d rather stay than this house. We even got an exiting text that we could check in early!! Upon arriving we immediately noticed the strong cigarette smell. It was very overwhelming and gave my son a headache. Within the hour or checking in we received a text asking how our house was. We reported there was visible damage to the front stairs and the cigarette smell. They replied with, “Open the windows.” I was taken back as to the listing clearly said No Smoking. It was uncomfortable inside so we decided to take a dip in the pool. While swimming we realized the new home being built ‘next’ to our house. The word next is in quotations because the new house is basically on top of the one we were renting. Felt like you could reach out and touch the house next to you. With that being said, privacy is nonexistent. You can clearly see into our pool/backyard from the other property. Luckily we arrived on a Saturday and construction was not going on. Once Monday morning hit we were woken up by blaring music being played by the workers next door. I could only imagine if both houses were being rented at the same time, how disrupting it could be. In the room that my son slept in with bunk beds, the ceiling fan did not work and was missing a blade, the beds were very uncomfortable and the sheets were extremely thin. Unfortunately this may have been our last visit to this house.

Great house, great location!
Had a great stay at this house with my 2 yr old, husband, and a couple friends. House was very comfortable, pool was clean and cool. Overall we had an excellent stay and hope to come again. Only suggestion i have is regarding the space under the stairs where the pool toys and beach chairs were is in need of cleaning. The blender needs replacing, as well as two of the bottom bunk beds. None of this would stop us from returning. Thank you for the great stay!

Weekend Get-a-way!
We took a quick trip with our kids to get away from the daily stress of work and school finals. We had a blast! The pool was perfect, we cooked out and played. Rented a golf cart from Bron's Beach Cart. Even went down to the beach and walked around, took our son to the jetty to fish and went to the Leonabelle Turnbull Birding Center (this was a family favorite). Our kids are 18, 15 and 14. Over all a great weekend!

Weekend get-away
The construction on the adjacent property was a mood killer. The property itself was good for a weekend getaway with the kids. But the noise from construction next door was horrible. All day power tool frenzy on Saturday. And that was the only full day we had at the property.

Fantastic Stilt House
Great house with a pool. Plenty of room for everyone. Wonderful location. Quick walk to Alister and Ave G or Grab a Cart and head to the beach or to the docks. Kitchen could use some new frying pans and doesn’t have a dish washer, but overall this place is great. Unadvertised Hidden secret, large couch is a sleeper sofa, so this place could actually handle 10 people. We can’t wait to grab this place again…

Nice place
Nice place for a getaway. However they really need to take better care to provide adequate dishes and utensils. Also the place was spot cleaned only. Remotes didn’t have batteries, trash bin was still full of someone else’s trash. For the price they should not ask you to clean the place before you leave. Kinda the point in renting a vacation getaway. Other than that it was nice. I would stay again but still pointing out the little things that should be addressed.

Almost great
It was mostly clean. We found dirty socks in multiple places. I didn’t pay attention that there wasn’t a washing machine, but reread before we left so juts brought paper plates and it was fine. The pool was awesome! We had a great time!! Family 2 adults and 4 kids! I called when I couldn’t find something and was very quickly helped.

Fun family spot, just be sure you read the ENTIRE description!
Our family had fun here overall. It's super cute, bright and cheery. We really enjoyed having the pool to come back to in the evenings. The kids had fun hitting the pool first thing in the morning. Having the full bath outside was pretty neat. Since there were four of us, we sent the kids to the outside bathroom for showers :) We did enjoy grilling out and the outdoor fridge. The kitchen utensils/ supplies are in dire need of replacement, though. Also, unless you want to pay "island prices", I recommend that you bring your own trash bags, paper towels, laundry detergent and dish soap. We only had one trash bag, one roll of towels and a teensy bottle of dish soap (even though there is no dishwasher). Unfortunately for me and my 6'3" husband, I missed the part about the master bedroom being only a full size bed. It would be nice to have a couple of drawers in the bedrooms to unpack a little. Also, actual curtains would be great because the sun shines straight on your eyeballs starting at 6:30 am. Honestly, though, if it weren't for the size of the master bed, we would totally go back!

Awful, pool was green, spent the whole time arguing with Turnkey, we will never be back.
Rented same property last year, it was great. This year pool green and unusable and basically ignored by Turnkey, said we were getting a refund, they lied, don't rent from these people, all our hard work and money down the drain!!! Happy Anniversary Anderson's getting an impossible situation rectified by the folks will not happen, next step BBB so No one else goes through this.
