House is exactly as advertised and wonderful. Communication with owner and property manager is 12 out of 10, checked in on us and if anything is needed response time was amazing. Location was great a block to the beach and also to the waterway. Great view from every porch. Had a great time seeing the island riding the golf cart. Thought it was especially thoughtful in the welcome package not only was there a gift card to the local restaurant but also a bag of dog treats for a fur companion. Will absolutely be back.

Family Vacay

This property was amazing! The owners provide you with everything need and more. All of the beds were super comfy and the house was very clean. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need. The pool was one of our favorite spots! The location of this house is absolutely perfect, especially if you are a kayaker. The boat launch is practically in your backyard and was well loved by my husband. The beach access is across the street and easy to get to. The owners have provided you with several beach chairs and floats for the pool. This was absolutely one of the best houses we’ve ever stayed at and plan to stay again next year.

Amazing property with great amenities and location!

This property was perfect for our large group of 11 people. The house had plenty of space for everyone to sleep, relax, and hang out. It was very clean and had all the amenities we needed, such as towels, linens, kitchenware, and Wi-Fi. We loved having access to the beach and pool items, such as chairs, umbrellas, toys, and floats. The beach and the pool were both just a short walk from the house, which made it easy to go back and forth. The house is also near a restaurant that offers live music on weekends, which added to the fun atmosphere. The music was not too loud and stopped at a reasonable time, so we did not have any trouble sleeping. The management was amazing and always available to answer our questions or help us with anything we needed. They went above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. We highly recommend this property to anyone who wants a relaxing and fun vacation.

Great beach trip

Sawyers Sandcastle was a relatively new, pet friendly home about 1 block from the beach. It was pretty clean for a pet friendly home although I still swept a lot of other pet hair up😃. Everything worked great. The pool was very nice. The views were great of the sound and the beach and the sunsets were divine. The house was well equipped. We noticed the air filters were extremely dirty and we contacted the property owner and they immediately replaced them. I would recommend this property!
