This was the best home rental experience that I've had -- and I've had some pretty good ones! From the moment I inquired about the rental, Bic was extremely helpful and responsive. She genuinely wanted us to have a great time and invited us to make special requests for items or adjustments that would make our stay easier or more comfortable. This was hard, as she'd thought of everything! The beach house was just what we needed for a relaxed family getaway. It was light, bright, and airy with lots of windows and high ceilings. When we wanted to sleep in or watch a movie on one of the MANY big screens, the automatic blackout shades provided the perfect cocoon. The garage and storage areas are packed with games, toys, bikes, and beach gear, and the kitchen was astonishingly well equipped. When we saw the KitchenAid stand mixer, we made sugar cookie dough and rolled it out on the big center island. While the house wasn't huge, it was professionally designed and decorated to take full advantage of the space. The common areas were comfortable for groups to gather, and the three bedrooms provided plenty of privacy as well. The yard and fire pit were a lovely feature, giving us yet another space to relax and unwind, and the neighbors were friendly and welcoming too. It really felt like home (only better), and we hated to leave. I have a feeling we'll be back.
