We greatly enjoyed our stay for spring break! We missed the busy weeks and basically had the beach to ourselves. The house was very clean and the deck had gorgeous views. We locked ourselves out one day and they were quick to come help. Thanks for a great stay!

This is our second stay at Bolivar Peninsula. This location was almost impossible to beat! Direct access to the beach spoiled us with the ability to get the best out of this rental while also enjoying the beach all the time. Great overall experience and will absolutely go back. The kids loved it, the surf fishing was awesome, and the house was comfortable.

Nice new property with great amenities, including excellent towels and useful cooking dishes. Furniture in living room was low to ground and soft to sit on. Beds were soft to medium firmness, but comfortable.

The house was perfect! So nice, decorated, and comfortable. With the rain, the bugs and mosquitoes were not pleasant, but other than that the vacation was great! The fridge water and ice went out and the managers/maintenance provided us with complimentary water, ice, and more as requested and delivered!

We loved this house! 7 adults and 5 children. For us it was perfect. We tend to eat our meals in with all these kids so the kitchen was a little skinny on baking dishes. 1 cooking sheet and 1 baking dish (8x8). Made lots of foul “pans”. Plenty of dishes, cups and cutlery though

Be careful staying here. The owner will pop up anytime without notice. I would not suggest renting at this location. Very noisy being 10 feet from the highway.
