Lovely water view!
We really enjoyed this house. The location is quite peaceful; it has water on three sides and a large amount of "yard,", great for my grand-dog. The house is nice too, a bit worn in spots and some small things to fix, but nothing major. There's lots of space and the living room is large and comfortable. There's a nice dock (shallow water, but fine for kayaks), two screen porches, a hot tub, and a deck with a porch swing. The bedrooms are pleasant and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen is large with lots of counter space and an amazing amount of cooking equipment. We made Thanksgiving dinner there. The view can't be beat! And if you are a bird-watcher or photographer, you will love this location! The sunsets were amazing. My only complaint is about Vacasa; next rental I will look for houses not managed by them. You have to go to their office to get a "Packet" and then you have to return it at the end--yes, another drive. The office staff was very nice but I would have rather not go to the office. Also it was impossible to get good information from them. I asked some questions about the house and got exactly opposite results from different people. No, "there are no bowls or frying pans", "yes there are some basics" (neither of these were true--there was lots of stuff!) Leave the sheets on the bed, strip the bed, put away the dishes, don't put away the dishes....sigh...

Property is lovely, but needs care and love
The house itself and the location were great. We also enjoyed the hot tub. We didn’t appreciate that the bathrooms were not clean properly (we found hair, dirty toilets, roaches). We encountered mice, mice’s poop over the counters in kitchen, ants (we didn’t care much as it is to be expected) and cockroaches in one of the bedrooms, kitchen, living room, etc.

Advertisement describes this home perfectly. Location was great, near everything! Secluded area with a dock to fish and catch crabs fun for the young ones. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was huge. Made it easy to prepare meals. Will definitely book again!

Rhododendron Issues
Lights in one bathroom not working. Found large water bugs in the home. Barbecue gas tank was empty. Poison ivy growing around the barbecue grill. Sliding glass doors on the shower in the bathroom fell off their tracks. One could not be fixed. Name of person given to contact with problems in the off hours was no longer doing this work. Spent lots of time on these issues. Requested a partial refund , but still have NOT received it.

Quiet location
The property is well maintained. Love the marsh where there was lots of wildlife. We saw everything from crabs, to cranes, to lizards. 15 minute drive to the Atlantic Beach Boardwalk. Convenient to shopping and food.

Piece of paradise
Gorgeous house, the pictures don’t do it justice! Minutes away from downtown waterfront Beaufort but nestled into your own private waterfront t paradise in the woods. Soak away your stress in your own private hot in, surrounded by views and sounds of the marsh and creek under the stars! Very private! I can’t say enough. We can’t wait to come back!!

Great getaway
Love the location of the house and the dock. The layout of the house is great as well. Plenty of fish to be caught off the dock although the picnic table was in pieces when we arrived. Also don't expect to launch kayaks without getting very muddy and only at high tide. We paddled elsewhere. Being close to the marsh, lots of dead bugs inside, but we could over look that due to all the other positives. Otherwise very clean and well kept home.
