Reviewer Comments:
Our rental had fire ants that got into our food in pantry the day we arrived. The rental didn’t have a sleeper sofa like described on Cobb. No air mattress. The photos showed different sofas. You need to update description. No pans for oven. No big pots. No bath mats. The queen bed needs work. The kitchen cabinet door were glasses are (the top left hinge came unscrewed) needs larger screws. The TV remote were hard figure out. The coffee pot stopped working, we had to unclog it. The upstairs was hot.

We had a great time at this lovely home. This home has a wonderful, charming cottage feel about it, in both the layout and furnishings. My entire family found it to very comfortable and accommodating, with enough room for us all. This part of the beach is also my favorite...not crazy like like other areas and the beach is nice and wide here. I plan on renting it again....would also be interested in purchasing if the owners should decide they would like to sell at some point! Thanks for sharing your lovely home.

Great family weekend getaway!
This was a great rental with anything we could have needed during our stay. There was one issue with downstairs lighting that was quickly resolved the next morning. The back yard is very large and was perfect for our dogs. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and the location was perfect.
