The neighborhood was nice and quiet. There was construction next door, but the only day there was actual work being done was the day we checked out, so it did not disrupt our stay at all. The deck was large and had plenty of chairs to accommodate our family.
The furniture in the living area is worn but appeared to be clean. We did not use the kitchen to prepare meals, so we can't comment on how it was equipped, but it was large enough for everyone to move around comfortably. The towels provided were horrible. They were prepackaged from a service so it was nice to know they were clean, but the quality was very poor. We did not call the management as it was apparent that this was simply the service they used.
It would be nice if the property management made it clear at the time of booking that check in may be as late as 6 PM depending on housekeeping. We were able to get in the property shortly after 4 PM and traveled with adults so it was not a problem, but this could be a challenge for a group with small children who arrive and find they have two hours to kill. We completely understood that this is a busy season and housekeeping is doing their best, so just an FYI for other people .
We went to Southport for dinner and loved Frying Pan and Provision. Overall a nice relaxing few days.
