Almost perfect

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"Loved the layout of the house, everything just fits into place. The fire pit outside was a bonus for us and we enjoyed it.Loved that the beach is within walking distance. Down fall was that the BBQ propane was out and we had to replace the old with the a new one. Not enough trash bags or dishwasher detergent and not matches or working lighter to start the fireplace or firepit. "

"We had a great time, the house was amazing plenty of space for everyone. The garage has a ping pong table and fooz ball table which we enjoyed. The view from the backyard looking to the River was beautiful and peaceful. Very well appointed home. My Granddaughter just had a baby, so we had her in the grandma's quarters above the garage, so that made her time more pleasant. We would love to come back."

The home is close to the river with lovely views of waterfowl and a fire pit to enjoy, yet only a few blocks from the beach. Accommodations worked well with plenty of comfortable seating in the living room. Kitchen was well stocked. A toilet issue was promptly taken care of."

Perfect for large families that love the water!

Overall satisfaction:

"Great beach house! We stayed here for my husbands birthday weekend with our family and friends, it was four couples with kids and there was more than enough room for all of us to hangout and for the kids to run around. With all the family it was just wonderful having such an open kitchen and living space as we could cook and still watch the kids and enjoy the family. My absolute favorite part of this home was the backyard! If you love the water you’ll love this house. Having the creek in the backyard was amazing. We were able to fish and enjoy the water without having to go anywhere. There’s a FirePit and plenty of space for the kids. We loved this place so much that we did it all over again two months later for my birthday! We had even more family there and there was still plenty of room for everyone. We will definitely be returning and celebrating more birthdays here! "

Great Main House!

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"The main house was great! Had everything we needed available. Main House was clean inside and beds were comfortable. The gas barbecue grill was pretty gross so we used the charcoal grill. And the apartment above the garage however was definitely slacked on. Bed was not made, floors were dirty, it didn't have anything for the kitchen including a coffee pot. What kind of mini apartment doesn't have a coffee pot? Though the property management was great when we accidentally locked ourselves out, helped us get the second key to get back inside. "

Off the Beaten Path Hideout

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"Overall, the house was good for our needs. A number of things could have been better, but the house worked for what we wanted to do--hangout in a quiet location with access to water. The yard was in poor shape. We helped improve it. Cobwebs were by the entrance door as well as several other spots. The advertisement made it sound like the master bedroom/ensuite was on the ground floor, but it wasn't. It was upstairs, which created a problem for one couple. The garage was not picked up or clean (a disappointment). Not enough wastebaskets/Kleenex boxes. There should be one in every room. Bedroom upstairs with bed on floor had a dirty boxspring. Mother-in-law suite over garage had no supplies. We furnished everything for it. Musty odor when we first opened the house--had to air it out. Two blinds needed repair, which we did. Fire pit outside was poorly maintained. The riverfront needs to be cut back and a landing for kayaks/canoes needs to be created. This house and yard needs a lot of TLC! If someone would fix the things mentioned, this house has real potential to be a great property. Despite the issues we would recommend this house."

Review Nov 2020

Overall satisfaction:

"Great location and amenities for our family to get away for Thanksgiving. Small apartment over garage great for a couple who wanted some privacy. We only had immediate family travel down and plenty of space for all. Heat did not come on initially and call resulted in poor notes and did not fix issue. Positive was technician was at the house in about 15 minutes and fully resolved issue. He also came back the next day to make sure heat was working. We went to Ace Hardware and picked up 3 screws, washers and an Allen Wrench to fix the bar stools. Well stocked kitchen, hand can opener needs replaced. No rubber spatula's or baster. We had relatives live local so we could fix our issues on Thanksgiving day without calling anyone. King tide flooded fire pit area, water level about 3 inches over rocks. Overall great experience and would rent again if date and time line up."

Very nice and spacious

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"We stayed at Schooner Creek Retreat for a family vacation. There was plenty of room for 8 adults and 5 kids. The kids loved the loft area with bunk beds. The house has been updated and the inside is very well maintained. The kitchen was spacious and there were all of the appliances you could need including coffee maker, crockpot, instapot etc. The backyard is a work in progress. The firepit was very nice, but the rest of the backyard could use some cleanup. There was a lot of driftwood and some random construction debris that needs to get cleaned up. There was an old greenhouse type structure in the backyard that should be torn down. But even with that we had a lot of fun in the backyard and could even take a small crabbing boat that we brought out on the river when the tide was in. There were two grills, one gas and one charcoal. Both were quite dirty when we arrived, but we were able to clean them up and use them both during our stay. The neighborhood was nice and was close enough to walk to the beach by Mo's. Don't be fooled by the drive in as some of the houses down the road were not as well maintained as this rental.Overview: Pros - Very clean and updated. Spacious. Would definitely stay again.Cons - Could clean up the backyard a little and the grills could be better maintained."

"We rented this house last year and it went amazingly.This year we had many spiders bite family members in the upstairs bedrooms, my sister got bitter in the neck and grew ill. We looked around and there was a lack of cleanliness. I feel this might be in relation to COVID 19, the place might have been empty for months which caused the spider and dust gathering."

where's the Housekeeper?

Overall satisfaction: Property condition: Location: Cleanliness: Services from rental manager:

"Lovely home with lots of towels and kitchen items. Beautiful view outside across the river and then the dense woods. We had a deer visit one day. One bedroom was small, lights were messsed up and smoke detector was pulled out. The railing on one the entrances had been removed making it very dangerous for the kids to fall off. There dirty, sticky spots in the dining area on the floor, which I scrubbed before my children arrived. There was dirt under some furniture on on some windows. Out side the spider webs and spiders and dust were prolific. I cleaned a few of those. There is also poison ivy all over in the trees on the side. I couldn't believe it could really be that at our house and wasn't careful. However, I was very sorry. Glad my daughter was a nurse.All in all a good place for a vacaation, it just needs to be cleaned a little better. the garage with the ping pong game was so dirty. We were about 1/2 mile to the beach and Mo's"
