Expectations Exceeded!
February, 2021
This was the my first time renting a vacation home and the experience at the Summerwind Snowdrift home exceeded my family and I expectations. The owner, Jay, was awesome-easy to work with and answered all questions I had. The house was very clean and had every appliance and dish we needed. My son loved playing basketball outside and the walk to the beach was only about 5 minutes away which was amazing. I am looking forward to booking this house again and my hotel stay days are over! I would definitely recommend the Summerwind Snowdrift home to anyone.
Dream Beach House!
August, 2020
This house was amazing! 6 adults & 6 kids (all under 7). Got hit w/ storms from 2 hurricanes so weather was not the greatest but thankfully the HOUSE saved the vacation!Plenty of space, not cramped. Having covered outdoor living space made it very tolerable in the pouring rain. My husband & I thought it would be a nice gesture to take the “less accommodating” downstairs, but we were wrong! Downstairs is the BEST!! We stole a blender and can opener from upstairs and were all set. Never stepped foot inside upstairs just used the grill on the porch. We only used the tub downstairs to let the kids play with floaty toys when it was storming. Everybody used the outdoor shower since it has hot (bonus!)& cold water, that was my personal favorite!Summerwind is ideal for families with small children. It is well equipped while keeping it simple. I am usually forced to walk through the house with a bin collecting breakables before the vacation gets started, which means I have to factor in the time at check out to put it all back. pain in my neck, but has proven very expensive not to do so in the past. I did not have to do that this time! Yay for mama, not having to stress out about crystal mermaid statues and one of kind blown glass crabs!Jay is so easy to work with and put my mind at ease as far as getting settled in and being comfortable during our stay. I had some crazy questions about what to expect and everything about summerwind exceeded my expectation.The private, gated street was a plus. No drive thru traffic was so nice. The walk to the beach was shorter than the walk to my mailbox at home. This really worked since weather was not on our side the entire time. So in between rain bands we would run back and forth, the kids thought it was a game.In the past we have been guilty of vaction home envy once we actually get there. I feel like I start to compare all the surrounding houses, wishing I had chosen something different. Not this time. Could not have been more satisfied!!If you’re on the fence to book, don’t be! BOOK IT NOW! WE WILL
