Summary: The property itself was clean and you had most everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable and the AC worked well. It also passed the clorox wipe test as I always wipe everything down when we check in anywhere and so that was impressive. BUT the sheets.....they smelled clean but they were stained and that is an ick for me. I had a Super 8 flashback from when I was a kid but this is not super 8 pricing so the sheets need an upgrade but otherwise good.

Summary: We have stayed in Bolivar 3 times now. This is by far our best experience and accommodations. The communication with David was immediate and helpful. Even when our daughter forgot some items in a closet, David was on it right away.We like to leave properties as we find them if not better. We picked up blown in trash from the dunes without stepping in the dunes.We created a path to the beach to help us navigate us (and the neighbors) the best route to the beach, protecting the dunes. The house is well equipped. Everything you could possibly need. Beds are comfortable. The house was spotless.Most of our stay we have the beach, moonrises and sunsets to ourselves.We will make this place our new annual place to stay. Thank you David for making our stay perfect.

Summary: We had an amazing stay at this property! Upon our arrival, we were blown away by the ocean views in such a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. The house itself was very clean and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The location was the best part—on the beach, allowing us to enjoy morning shelling and walks on the sand.The host was incredibly accommodating and responsive, ensuring that we had everything we needed. If you're looking for the perfect beach getaway, this is the place! I highly recommend this property and we will most definitely be back!

Summary: Grandchildren were on break for Mardi Gras (they live in S. Louisiana) I tried to tell them that they wouldn't be able to swim the first week of March, but they insisted we go. We played games, cooked, made several trips down to the beach. There are a lot of stairs and didn't realize until we had hauled everything up that there was a lift. Sure made leaving easier. The house sounds small when you read the square footage, but it is very roomy and comfortable. Spotlessly clean and freshly painted. Do no hesitate to stay here - can't beat the access to the beach.
