Disliked: Cleanliness
The pool and hot tub were great. Great location. Property in need of updates. It was not very clean, no rugs, not comfortable. Check out required a lot of extra work when you pay for the cleaning fee.

Wonderful

The house was great for all our needs. We had a few things that needed replaced or fixed and our requests were taken care of in a timely manner. When we got there we noticed there was no gate to put up at the top of the stairs to keep my disabled 4 year old safe. We messaged the rental company and they got a gate to us within a couple hours. They also replaced the outside umbrella that was broken and fixed the hot tub when it wouldnt heat up. Overall we had a great time and i would rent this house again.

Peace and quiet

Corolla Drive is a very quiet and pleasant residential area. Restaurants and groceries less than 3 miles. Home was more than we needed, but we like extra space. We really hope to return another season. Heated private pool was a fantastic feature! Wished for lamps for reading and end tables for coffee cups, but we worked that out. Thumbs up and 5 stars
