Review Submitted: July 20, 2007 Date of Stay: July 2007
Nancy, thanks for allowing us to make such good memories at "The Great Escape". Your home was so lovely - I loved the arrangement where the family could enjoy the togetherness and yet do their own thing. The kids loved the pool while the adults enjoyed cooking out on the covered porch or relaxing on the front porch reading a book.
The location of the home is great, close enough to the beach that the children can walk there safely and also close to some great resturants and shopping.
With pictures of your lovely family sitting around, it made for such a friendly environment that you felt like you were visiting relatives.
We'll definitely return to the "Great Escape". Maybe next time, I can bring my great-great grandchildren along
with my 5 greats.

Review Submitted: June 3, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
This house was GREAT. We have always stayed at hotels or resorts before but wanted to do something different so after looking picked this cute looking house with great comments from others that stayed. We have 4 young children so we packed alot of beach toys and stuff that normally bring. When we arrived the house was clean, very nicely set up and perfect. My wife has requested building a house with the same floor plan. The kids loved the pool and beach toys already at the house. If anyone out there is looking at this house to rent... YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. We will be back to stay again. Thanks to Nacey who made it very easy to plan and make the arrangements easy and quick. One more time WE LOVED THE HOUSE. Have fun everyone.

We just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed staying at your home! As you know, we were a bit concerned about not being “right on the water.” But the tradeoff was your wonderful pool – and those super chaise lounges you bought (thank you)! We had a great time bouncing back and forth between the beach (whichever one we chose to visit each day) and the pool. Your house is beautiful --- so comfortable and inviting. I felt really relaxed and at home there, and we had perfect weather. We can't wait to return!

Review Submitted: August 2, 2006 Date of Stay: August 2006
This may sound a little crazy ... but our family's hectic day-to-day life usually finds us running on various schedules and making sitting down for a meal together a rare treat. I get teased because I always take my own electric skillet, etc. along on vacation because most rental units are equipped with mix-matched pans, lids, etc. What a treat to actually have a nice selection of cookware! We felt reunited and relaxed. We're looking forward to our trip back in 2007!
