Perfect Home

We spent a week there in early October and it was perfect. The home is spacious and very clean. Communication with the owner was easy and they were very responsive. The view of the bay is an added bonus. We would stay here again!

Birding Adventure

We enjoyed our VRBO. Convenient location with great view. Only one little issue. There was no shower or hand soap. All else was present that a renter would expect, like paper towels, coffee filters .

Needs a little improvement

It looked like maybe they had just remodeled the place. It was clean and spacious. The furniture was comfy and the upstairs game room was a nice place to hangout. However, we had trouble with the heat. The downstairs needs some improvements before the unit will be able to properly heat the downstairs area. Upstairs unit worked fine once we figured out it was there. The thermostat is hidden behind a bunk bed. Then we had a water leak in the kitchen ceiling. Part of the ceiling was falling. The host did a great job of trying to fix the issues. Some things that could also be improved are there are no outlets in the master bathroom. The bathtub was also very slow to drain.

Fantastic Property, Frustrating Experience

The house itself was beautiful—clean, comfortable, and fully stocked. We truly enjoyed the space. Unfortunately, communication and scheduling with the host were poor and impacted our stay.We rented the home from Sunday evening to Saturday morning. On Monday, I was told to crate my dogs for maintenance to fix the washer—someone had already entered the home without our knowledge. I’m very protective of my dogs (full-blooded Dalmatians), and I’m not comfortable with anyone entering without me present. I expressed this to the host, but they dismissed my concerns.They rescheduled for Tuesday, again saying I didn’t need to be there. After six calls, I finally reached the host and explained the washer was fine. They agreed to cancel the visit once I sent confirmation via VRBO, which I did immediately. Despite this, maintenance showed up anyway. Thankfully, I was home.Then Wednesday, I was told filters would be changed Thursday—again, no timeframe and no regard for my concerns. I was stuck waiting instead of enjoying my vacation. With no guests booked after us, this work could’ve been done later.The home is for sale, and if a different host purchases it, I’d gladly return. But I won’t book with Sigsbee Homes again.

Perfect location. What you see is NOT what you get on VRBO listing however….

Location, location, location is what this property is ALL ABOUT! We got great use out of the backwater fishing right across the street! The view was spectacular from the front porch! The space is set up perfectly for our 2 families. Cleanliness of this property is desperately lacking however and several things inside need repair/cleaning. The entire front end of the house is wonderfully remodeled and decorated. As you get to the bedrooms, bathrooms and kitchen however…Kitchen was clean but not fully stocked and the drawers all fell outward when opened, not sturdy at all. Bedrooms were dirty with cobwebs and previous renters receipts not far under the beds. Bathrooms need updating with sinks and shower heads, but we’re stocked. The pictures that we saw on VRBO were not of the house we pulled up to upon arrival. Most obvious was the color of the home, previously grey, now a bright aqua with coral accents! This was a nice surprise and looked lovely. A FOR SALE sign in the front yard was a bit concerning. The back deck had been redesigned and was no longer large and connected as seen on VRBO. The grill was MOLDY, we had to clean it with tin foil and burn off the dirt prior to making our dinner the first night. Very concerning was the lack of safeguards on the screened in deck. There were none, as previously seen in VRBO photos. Not sure how that is allowed. VRBO also showed a fire pit in the yard, that was no longer there. Spoke with a manager who didn’t know the house was….
