    The cottage was very nice. Everything you would need and then some was included. We enjoyed our short trip very much. We'll be back.

    First of all, any stay on Harbor Island will automatically be a great location. We were pleased with the communication prior to our trip, notifying us of construction next door and answering questions we had. Having an included golf cart with the rental is a major plus. The layout of the home is nice, and there's plenty of space for guests - both human and pet alike. The home itself appears to be older and needs noticeable updates. The guest bathtub did not drain well and the toilet paper holder was broken. There was also noticeable mold on the shower curtain. The overall cleanliness of the home was not great. An odor of (maybe) cigarette smoke/dirty pets permeated the home and did not go away over time. Lots of pet hair left over from previous guests, as well. The living room TV had noticeable smears all over the screen. There appeared to be boogers smeared on a doorframe between a bedroom and bathroom. When we were stripping the sheets off of the bed in the primary bedroom, there was noticeable dirt and pine needles underneath on the mattress. So no, we were not happy with the apparent lack of cleaning. Our stay overall was fine, but we would not book again.

    From the Owner: "I’m so sorry to hear that your experience at our place was not what you expected. Since your stay, I’ve worked with our cleaning crew to address the issues you mentioned and ensure they don’t happen again.

    For the future, if similar concerns ever come up at any property, I’d recommend reaching out to the representative or owner during your stay. That way, issues can be addressed right away and hopefully resolved without disrupting your time."

    Overall just wonderful. Low tide lots of beach to play. High tide still a walk to swim but enjoyable.

    Johnson bar and seaside great food. House is well stocked.
