Everything and more
Arrived, property was very clean. They had everything in the kitchen you would need, ever. We loved the pool and hot tub, very relaxing. We went with 3 of our children and spouses, and 9 grandchildren. We had plenty of room for us to stay together for activities and plenty of space for everyone to have their own space. Loved it.

Beyond Our Expectations!
This rental property exceeded our expectations and was the perfect place for our family group of 15 people to celebrate a 50th anniversary together! The house itself more than met our needs. Bedrooms all had great TVs and private balconies. Our littles (ages 5 - 12) all slept on the 1st level with the pool table / game room, adult parents on the 2nd level, and grandparents lucked out with the beautiful master suite on the upper level. The beach was an easy walk, with powder sand. So fun at night with the crab catching!! Kitchen was fully equipped, and we ended up eating in every night because it was so convenient. The only small snag was the carpeting was well worn and beyond being able to be cleaned sufficiently. Carpeting in a beach house is very difficult to maintain and really takes a beating. We would especially recommend this specific house as a rental because of its ideal location next to an empty lot, with a lake just steps away. We were able to drop our kayaks and paddle board in the lake just steps away from the house! With the crowds we experienced everywhere else in the subdivision, we were especially happy to have the extra space and pretty much private access to the lake! The entire week was one of memories being made, and The Key To Paradise definitely made that happen for us. Thank you!

Key to Paradise
The house and location worked out very well for our group. The only negative comment is that the skillets need replaced.
Lisa R - Guest's stay: 5/1/2021 - 5/8/2021
Hi Lisa, thank you so much for leaving us a 5-star review! We are so glad everything worked out, aside from the skillets needing to be replaced. We hope we can help you with your next vacation!
