The top bunks are for children less than 100 lbs. only.
Gas grills are provided. Some properties have propane grills, and the boiling pots only use propane. We leave a couple propane tanks at the house for the grill and boiling pot burner, but there is no practical way to keep them filled, so propane is not guaranteed. Like most properties on the island, we employ the honor system, as we do not and can not monitor them. If you drew the short straw and the gas runs low or out on you, take the cylinder and pay an exchange at IGA, CVS, Ace, or Stripes. It should be around $25.
Grill cleaning is guest responsibility. If you use any of the outdoor cooking equipment, it needs to be cleaned and the drip pans emptied and ready for the next guest. We do not and can not clean the grills and boiling pots between guests. Please use paper towels and the metal grill brushes to clean the grills, not our linens or our pool cleaning equipment. If you leave the grill or boiling pot dirty for the next guest you will be charged per the rental agreement. If you check in and find the grill dirty send us pictures and we will send you $25. NOTE: Dirty is excessive food particles or full grease catch pans or actual food left in the boiling pot, not a little grease residue or a little rust on the grill or grates.
Golf Cart usage is subject to terms and conditions that are in the home rental agreement. You must complete the home rental agreement (which includes the provisions for the golf cart) including full contact details and you must text any operator's driver's license and proof of insurance to us before they operate our cart. Golf cart access and operating instructions will be provided the day of your arrival.
We heat the pool Nov 1 to Mar 31 to 90 degrees. Heating to higher temperatures and other times can be arranged for a fee. The pools are serviced twice a week and will require occasional closures to allow chemicals to dissipate. This is usually no more than a couple hours.The pool is cleaned on Tuesdays and Fridays and tested for proper and safe chemicals. Sometimes the water isn’t perfectly clear but that does not mean it is unsafe to use. There may be occasional algae growth on the pool walls or steps, or debris or sand blowing in from the beach and landscaping. These do not constitute the pool being dirty. Skimmers and brushes are provided if Guest wants to remove them between regularly scheduled cleanings. Please do not let your children use play with these. Our pool service company will notify you if the pool is unsafe to use. There are no refunds for occasional pool closures for cleaning, repairs or maintenance, “cloudy” water, if pool temperature is undesirable, or other minor issues with the pool.

Summary: We stayed during the week of spring break and it could not have been a more perfect location! The beach was maybe a .25 mile walk, which insulated us from the noise beach drive spring breakers but was close that we walked the beach every morning! The house was perfect! So clean, so well stocked! Trash bags, dishwasher pods, towels, beach toys, a few beach chairs… it was everything they advertised and more!

Summary: Overall stay was great! Just a few things that could have made it better. We checked in on Friday. The ice maker didn’t work and outlets in all three bathrooms didn’t work. Property manager said he would send someone over Monday to fix it. He gave us the code to the closest so we could get electricity in the bathrooms. There was chewed gum on the bunk room wall. We told him and he said he would send the cleaning company over. He never did. The gum stayed on the wall the entire time we were there. The pool was cold the first two days. We had to message him and he told us he had to recycle it. It was warm the remainder of our stay. It has a Nest thermostat that has previous settings applied. It got up to 75 the first two nights we were there. He said he would log in and reset the thermostat. This took two days. The location was great! Close to beach and town. The golf cart did not have working seat belts or turn signals. The noise was loud on the weekends.

Summary: 60 seconds from the beach!! Perfect house for our family vacation. More than enough room for everyone. Home included towels, beach towels, kitchen essentials and everything else you can think of. After day 1 we said we plan on staying here again next summer. The best part was having a golf cart included and huge private pool!!!!
