Lovely get away

I just loved this house, wonderful space, beautifully decorated, had everything we needed! My favorite part was the porch off the kitchen/living room. I spent at least 50% of my time there at the lovely dining table. I was able to watch the sunrise and enjoy a full moon from the same spot and could hear the waves crashing on the beach. Will certainly be back!!

Excellent Beach House!

Our family truly enjoyed a wonderful time in this house. It was spacious and had everything we needed. The side porch on the 2nd floor was wonderful for hanging out and the close location to the beach/pool was amazing. It’s a wonderful property!

Would recommend this property to anyone. Great location with beach and pool access. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else. WiFi is spotty but that’s my only complaint. Very clean and easy check in and check out.

Great place to stay

The home is beautiful and spacious. It is in a fantastic location. The beach is only a few minutes away by foot with your own private access to the beach and only a couple minutes drive to get “downtown”.

Cozy cottage

Great location with our cottage being only a short walk from the beach and pool. The home was easy to access and easy to find. We especially enjoyed the three outdoor seating areas. We had kids of all ages and the spaces were perfect.

True Knot for a second stay

We loved true not four years ago and we still love it this time around. It is the perfect size for our family of five. You cannot beat the proximity to the beach and the wonderful heated pool. The house was very clean and beautiful. It is an idyllic place to stay, and we will come back again!

This is a beautiful property, has everything BF you need for a perfect vacation. Roniece was the perfect host. I let her know I wasn’t going to be checking in until around 8pm and she made sure to leave the lights on for me. I can’t wait to book again❤️

Loved it!

We loved the location of this home! Close walk to the beach and pool. The open porch behind the front door was great for wrangling two small kids after coming home. The beds and furniture were comfortable. The only thing holding back 5 stars- there weren't enough towels in my opinion. There were only 2 per bathroom. And while, yes technically that is one for each person it sleeps, I don't want to constantly do laundry on vacation. And the washer and dryer took a VERY long time.

True Knot Late October 2023

We have stayed in this cottage before. It was very nice but we noticed some "attention to detail" issues since the last time we stayed. Bathroom shower drain slow...carpet had sand spurs still in it which are hard for vacuum to remove. Clothes washing machine would not cycle. Other than that, it was a wonderful stay and the weather was Chamber of Commerce perfect!

House great, very nicely decorated

This would be a five +++ star house if they fixed the kids bunkbeds. The upper bed boxsprings are SO squeaky that my kids couldn't sleep. Its not the frames on the bed, just the thin springs under the mattress: the solution is to cut a piece of 3/4 plywood the size of the slats that support the mattress and get rid of the squeaky boxspring... Very nicely decorated. The master bed was probably one of the most comfortable beds we have ever been in in a rental or hotel! A+ Vacasa service was good, they responded to an internet outage within hours. Would rent again if the bunks were fixed!

Beware of broken glass!

This property is gorgeous and close to the beach. We arrived on the island early and when we pulled into the restaurant where we were eating lunch we were texted that the house was ready. We drove right over and were unloading our luggage when we heard someone open the front door of the home. A very rude woman yelled that we couldn't be in the house. When I informed her we'd been texted that it was ok to check in she argued with me. I showed her the text we had just received. She still acted rude and defensive. She said she wasn't sure the house was ready. I said "well can you verify with whomever texted us?" A member of our party who had to use the restroom after the long drive informed her that the toilet paper had the paper indicating at least that bathroom had been cleaned. The woman was still unfriendly and suspicious with us and we informed her we'd go eat and return so she could check out the house. I should have called the rental company then. When we returned 90 minutes later she wasn't there but a member of our party stepped on broken glass as we readied for the beach. It made a deep gash in her foot. Several towels in her bathroom were filthy and there was sand all over the floor. I reached out to the rental company and was told to send pictures. We did, but instead of getting an apology we got a message on my cell that said the lady was just there dropping off parking passes (which is a lie because they were there when we arrived) and that we wouldn't be receiving any refund. I didn't necessarily want a refund, but maybe an apology for the rude way we were welcomed and for my friend getting hurt.

All the creature comforts and more!

I rented the True Knot Cottage for a recent work trip, and it turned out to be the perfect home away from home. Everything about the home was comfortable and clean, and the community and its amenities (including the beach!) were everything I needed to be productive, inspired, and relaxed. VRBO made the entire experience of finding and reserving the house as easy as it could possibly be.

Great spot! Family loved it

The house is perfect, we had a great stay! Thank you to our hosts! The kids loved the bunk room, I loved that all the bedrooms were on the same floor. The porches are relaxing, the kitchen had everything we needed, and we loved watching fireworks from the crows nest.
