Very clean, nicely decorated house, great location and excellent communication with the owners. We enjoyed having breakfast on the porch each morning and liked renting the cart from the owners. We will definitely book again.
This house is amazing!! Clean, neat and simple the host is very responsive and helpful. 10 out of 10 recommended we will be back to stay at this house.
Great house for a family of 4! Communication with host was excellent. House was clean and the beds were comfortable. We will be booking again next year.
Property was clean, conveniently located, and had everything we needed for a great beach week. We really enjoyed the outside patio area and grill. The ability to rent a golf cart from the owner was also a huge plus.
The home is cozy and very clean. The homeowner was great to work with. We loved that we could rent a golf cart from them too. Would definitely stay here again..
We were impressed and pleased at the cleanliness of the property. We had everything we needed. There was an occasion where we had to call the owner about a small issue we couldn't solve, and she told us exactly what to do quickly and efficiently. We wouldn't hesitate to rent from the Simmons again!
Everything was exactly how it was listed, ran into a few issues that was fixed immediately. But it was nothing we done or the property owner. Highly recommend!
The house was just as listed and was perfect for our family of four. Communication from the owners was amazing. Patricia made the process so easy. We loved all the amenities Ocean Lakes offered. We would definitely stay again.
The property was clean and well-maintained. Ocean Lakes is just as fun as ever, and Patricia was wonderful to work with. She communicated well and made sure we were well-informed. The beds were comfortable and we loved the outdoor deck and grill. We highly recommend!
We have stayed at numerous Ocean Lakes properties throughout the years and this home rates highly. My wife and I enjoyed the quiet side street, central location, and ample parking. The home itself is very clean, nicely furnished, and well equipped to meet most any need. The Simmons' are wonderful and responsive hosts who went above and beyond to ensure the rental process was smooth. Look forward to a future return.
The house was exactly as described, and was absolutely spotless. The communication with the owner Patricia was amazing with clear and concise information from the first day thru the last. The golf cart availability relieved the hassle of dealing with Ocean Lakes (for a fraction of the cost). The street was on the back side of the Ocean Lakes property and had very minimal traffic but was still just a short jump from the beach and other amenities. I would highly recommend this property for smaller families or contacting Patricia if you need a larger space (she has a 2 story directly across the street from this house). VERY HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE OWNERS AND THE PROPERTY!
Location is good - close to the beach. Homeowners quick to respond but when you spend $2200 for a week stay - we expect the home to be a bit more maintained on the inside. The carpets were dirty, refrigerator dirty, utensil drawers dirty, very outdated and carpets surrounding toilets dirty and unwashed.
Contacted homeowner and they did offer for house cleaners to return, but after a long trip with two young kids, we preferred not to have a cleaning crew inside the home. Would have appreciated a refund on cleaning fees - when we showed up late at night, we cleaned the house immediately.
Clean, cute cottage, convenient location to pond and beach
When first entering the cottage, the first thing we noticed was the cleanliness. This cottage is cute, with upgrades such as granite in kitchen. The pavilion in the back was great for gathering with friends, watching TV outside on a beautiful night. We chose to rent the golf cart provided to us by the owners which was a great decision. The beds were comfortable as well. I didn't give this 5 stars because of the layout of the living room area - very uncomfortable for all of us to sit and watch TV. Overall, we were extremely pleased with this rental.
Patricia was so amazing to talk to and get ahold of with any questions. Such a pleasant lady. The only reason I gave a 4 star on the location was that there was so many kids riding golf carts on the road in front and going fast. Road was smaller than some places. But the stay and the place was awesome. We had a problem with one of the units on the stove and I contacted Patricia and she got it taken care of and had someone there very fast. Love Ocean Lakes and will go back.
Our family of 4 had a wonderful time staying at this property! Patricia made all the details of renting very easy. The house was very clean upon arrival. The location is great. We loved that it is located on one of the larger sized streets. It makes it so easy to back out of the driveway. The house also had plenty of paved parking, which is a definite plus. We rented a golf cart from the owners that worked out wonderfully. The house has a lovely outside back patio with bar & TV to sit & relax. The outside shower sprayer to rinse all the sand off worked so nicely as well. This unit is very accurately pictured here on VRBO. The bedspreads & some decor have been changed. It fit our family nicely. There is not a lot of space for luggage, but we were creative & made it work well. The main bathroom is very nicely updated & the washer & dryer in it was very convenient. The second bathroom is quite small as it looks to be original to the original trailer. It has a mini tub. Everything is very well maintained in this house. Patricia has made it very cozy & convenient. Some other things that I really liked were the granite kitchen countertops, the AC worked very well, so it stayed nice & cool in the house, which was a blessing since the week we were there it was in the 90's most days. It also has ceiling fans to keep the air moving. I liked the 40 gallon hot water tank as well. It was so nice not to run out of hot water when we all needed showers before heading out to dinner. I also always try to rent a place that has a hand held shower sprayer which the main shower did. It's the little conveniences that make a trip more enjoyable. So thanks for another fun week in OL! We miss it already.
