Buddies golf trip

We were a group of 6 buddies in our mid 60’s that rented the main house as well as the guest house for a golf trip to escape the Northeast winter. Both properties were well kept and immaculately clean and in close proximity to golf courses as well as restaurants. The outdoor space is outstanding with multiple locations to sit outside and enjoy the day or evening. Lori was responsive to any questions we had throughout the stay and went to great lengths to recover a lost cell phone and express mail it back to him. Would highly recommend either property to anyone interested in them singly or together.

Plenty of room

The house was our Ready Room (US Navy aircraft carrier space). We met each day at the home-plenty of room and the outside porches were perfect.

Family weekend

We traveled to Jacksonville for a monthly family gathering, which typically includes 14 people. The house was the perfect size as it offered six bedrooms and lots of square footage for everyone to move about. We spent most of our time on the outside deck which wraps around almost the entire house. Everything that you could possibly need for a great stay was at your fingertips. From forks and spoons to pots and pans, towels, blankets, and everything in between could easily be found, thanks to our hostess Laurie for offering such a beautiful and historic venue for us to enjoy.

Beautiful Home Perfect for Reunion

Home is as pictured. Lori prompt in responses. Parking is an issue if you have four vehicles that are large, but we managed - just have to move vehicles on occasion to get out and around. It was perfect for five sisters and three spouses to reunite and have a fun-filled week. Lori shared a bit of the home’s history with us which was most interesting. I highly recommend booking.

Family Time

This home is beautiful, the cottage also beautiful and both were well supplied, comfortable, well furnished. A couple issues, one the hostess of our home was not quick to respond/communicate, there were multiple TV’s in both locations but no instructions on use especially when there are two remotes so we didn’t have use of them, no checkout instructions and when we inquired with our hostess we got no response therefore did what we want done in our homes. The property is beautiful, lots of porches with comfortable furnishings in all areas. One other item, sleeping really is for 8 adults and 6 children as the bunks are very small and stacked with 3 which is pretty high for kids trying to get into and out of bed. Overall, recommend this home….more positives and just minor negatives that easily be dealt with.

$20 extra guest fee for more than 2 people and names required

This property is advertised to sleep 14, and it can, but be aware of the $20 "extra guest" fee if you have 3 or more people in your party. Not sure why a property that can sleep 14 considers any number under the listed capacity an "extra guest" but this one does. Age of the guest does not matter either as our 11 month old was considered in this count. I understand this fee is stated in the listing but it's still, in my mind, a little deceptive considering "extra guest" typically means a guest above the capacity of the home. When asked about it host said it had to do with their profit margins. Also listing claims to be a "restricted community" but it's just the house with open access to the road. Listing states vehicle tag number and names of all guests, even minors, are required to be disclosed. Never seen this in any other property I've stayed at but host is serious about it and did not provide entry code until I relented despite me saying I was not comfortable providing names of minor children. All seemed very unnecessary to me. House itself is as advertised. No complaints about the property.

Dim lighting especially on stairs as I fell down the steps twice, just sore. TV in upstairs bedroom didn’t work. No A!C on one bedroom. No safety bars in bathroom or mat in bottom of tubs to prevent falls. My wife and I are 74 and luckily neither of us were hurt, but others will be unless these issues aren’t addressed!!! Otherwise, a very nice house.
