  We had a wonderful stay at this location. This is the second time in a few years we have stayed at this home. The renovations are beautiful. The outside shower was out of order, however home was clean, close to beaches, quiet neighborhood. Friendly neighbors. Hoping to be back next year

• Good visit

  We enjoyed our visit. The property was as advertised. We had a minor issue regarding trash and a few other things. The property management was very responsive and helped resolving them.

  We had a pleasant stay. The accommodations were as described. We had a small issue with trash and a few other things, but the Evolve team was very responsive and professional resolving them.

• Served basic needs, too many spiders!

  3/5

  When we originally looked at this house, we reviewed closely and felt comfortable that we would be able to park our 25ft boat/trailer and our cars off the road. The property advertised "fully equipped with all the comforts of home. step into vacation mode from the minute you arrive". We knew seating was a challenge based on pictures, so we brought an additional folding table and chairs. We chose this location as it was on a cul-de-sac. It was so QUIET compared to the last property we had been renting for the last 11 years. It was Peaceful. Besides that, the property was overgrown and we called the property manager, and although an odd request, the manager was able to get owner approval and had the trees cut back the next day so we could park boat and cars! Garbage cans on the deck filled and stinky with baby diapers, we could not move as it revealed a hole in the deck. AC's were blasting AS WELL AS the heat. Why? There was an overpowering mildew/musty smell. Window sills were dirty and filled with dead bugs, and dirt.Spiders, ants and silverfish (BUGS) everywhere. For the entire month that we rented the house, we were killing spiders daily. My husband ended up getting a few spider bites.There were NO cleaning supplies except for dish soap for the kitchen sink and dishwasher. We purchased hand soap, laundry detergent, cleaning supplies, paper towels, and toilet paper. The house advertised "prepare in the fully equipped kitchen! Stainless steel appliances and helpful kitchen tools are sure to make your lobster dinner a success! Bring the feast to the deck and dine al fresco." HA, I had to boil pasta in 2 pots as there was not one big enough for a box of pasta. Then the deck furniture, 2 of the 4 chairs you could not sit on as the webbing to hold the cushions were broken and the cushions are fabric and did not dry out daily and were green and smelly. Outdoor shower still does not work. Plenty of outdoor hoses, but no running water outside. All we wanted to do was rinse off sand and coolers outside. House rules require no shoes, but how can we clean ourselves off with no outside facilities? We would say this served our basic purpose to sleep and enjoy the outdoors, but recommend much needed cleaning, pest control, and overall maintenance. Expensive for the condition and issues. Would we stay again? Yes, if all issues were resolved.

  Hi Amber, thanks for letting us know about your stay. The homeowner has passed your feedback onto their cleaning team as the garbage bins should have been taken out and the window sills should have been properly cleaned before your arrival. We're sorry that these issues affected your stay. We appreciate your suggestions on areas of improvement and have shared them with the homeowner for further consideration. We hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future!

• Needs some TLC, but good location

  3/5

  The good - comfortable house for 6 adults, close to the beach, but not walkable. Nice to have the deck attached to the kitchen. Kitchen was stocked enough with plate and dishes.Improvement opportunities - the house is managed by Evolve and there is a local property manager. You can tell it's a management company that manages the property. A few things that need to be improved:Need new outdoor furniture and new cushionsThe outdoor shower doesn't workCleaning - the windowsills were not clean, dead bugs.Upgraded bed linens - if you like nicer linens you should bring your own. The sheets were very thin.Some things that I wish I knew (should be added to listing):There is one bedroom on the main floor. Both bathrooms are on the main floor and one is en suite. There isn't a bathroom on the second floor.Beach towels are not included in the rental.

  Hi Andrea, The homeowners were surprised to read your review, as they are accustomed to providing 5-star experiences, and would like to clarify the following:
  -We take the cleanliness of our home very seriously and apologize if those standards were not met during your stay. We have spoken with our cleaning team and have asked them to clean the window sills more thoroughly.
  -At the end of the season we will be adding a second-floor bathroom, hopefully providing more convenience to our guests.
  -When guests are in residence we encourage them to reach out if they have any questions or encounter any issues. We ask this so we can provide the best service for our guests.
  Thank you for taking the time to leave a review as we are always working to provide each guest with a truly wonderful experience.
