Pool was fine. House had a bad smell. Roaches in the kitchen. Upstairs was hot. Insect and dead roaches.

Sadly there was a lot of roaches around the house, the pier for fishing was unsafe, the fridge had a heavy shrimp odor and has roach droppings and didn’t work at first so we had to call so maintenance could come out and fix it.

Great place to stay except for the bed bugs and the roaches that they need to fix. Positive: The size is great for a big family. The price was reasonable. The private fishing pier was a great addition. I liked the game room setup in the garage for kids. Negative: We had issues with bed bugs on the master bedroom and the room on the first floor with bunk beds. Also, there were roaches in the kitchen and garage bedroom. The pool guy came during our visit for pool maintenance which took some time for use to enjoy the pool.
