Excellent Home!

Rings Atlanta, Georgia
Review Submitted: November 12, 2007 Date of Stay: September 2007
My husband, 1 year old son and I stayed at Windswept for two weeks in September 2007. It was an absolutely fantastic vacation and home away from home. Kay has made everything about the home livable for her guests. To get to the beach you simply walk through the pool area and down the adjoining boardwalk - there you are! I would liken the distance to walking from a standard beach front hotel, through its pool area to the beach. The beach directly in front of the complex is enormous at low tide and still nice and wide at high tide. The tidal pools make perfect "kiddie pools". Although we are pet lovers and took our dog with us, there was NO SIGN that pets are allowed to stay at Windswept. It is kept immaculately clean and tidy. It is great for kids too with very family friendly furnishings and highly mounted electronics. We were thankful for the little office that we were forced to use to work a bit. The high speed connection and wireless router made communication very accessible. There are even two adult bikes along with a TON of beach toys and rafts at the house. NO need to bring your own! It is a perfect bike ride to Coligny for a meal or ice cream. From the granite kitchen to the beautiful bathrooms, everything has been considered and appointed with the highest of taste and quality.

Review Submitted: March 24, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
We stayed at Windswept for ten weeks in early 2009. Over such a lengthy stay, you really get to know a
house and learn its strengths and weaknesses. Let me assure you that this is a terrific rental house in
every way! First of all, the layout is exceptional. There is a large kitchen/dining/family room area that is
perfect for socializing. It has a nice, bright open feel that makes your stay very very relaxing. The
bedrooms are quite varied in size and location, so sleeping arrangements are a snap. Overall it is a very
comfortable house.

Secondly, this is by far the most fully equipped rental unit I've ever seen. We quickly learned that if we
ever needed something (battery, tape measure, cooking implement, etc etc) just look around and we
would find it in the house! There are a lot of books, DVDs, magazines, local guides, towels, blankets,
pillows, beach chairs, beach toys, games, etc (including a whole bunch of stuff for the kids). The
attention to detail is amazing (for example, the light switches are labeled, which believe me is extremely
helpful in a house this size).

The location is outstanding: just walk down a short, private path (and I mean short) and you are on the
beach. There is a pool and pool house (with rest rooms) right by the dunes. The house is located at the
end of N. Forest Beach road, which can get very busy at times. But because Windswept is just 100' from
where the road dead-ends, the only traffic in the area is from people staying nearby--there is no
"through traffic."

I would be remiss if I didn't mention how attentive and pleasant the owner is. If we had a question or
need, Kay would respond immediately. However she left us alone completely. No unexpected drop-ins,
phone calls or hovering (if you've had this happen with a rental, you know what I mean).

Windswept is, without a doubt, one of the very best rental experiences we've ever had.

Review Submitted: January 11, 2009 Date of Stay: January 2009
We stayed at WindSwept from 12/27/08 - 01/03/09. Many of our family spent the time with us and the weather could not have been nicer. Our family is from Chicago, so they were captivated with the pool and the ocean, as well as the weather, which was primarily in the 60's and 70's. The decks were particularly inviting and the view from the second floor was exceptional. The house was designed for groups and afforded not only privacy but large open areas for camaraderie. Kay, the owner could not have been more accomodating.

We truly enjoyed our stay at WindSwept: excellent selection of amenities (very reliable high-speed internet, large flat screen tvs, towels, games, kitchen utensils, etc.); wonderful proximity to the beach and pool; and beautifully situated on a quiet block in a serene setting filled with lush foliage. The layout of the house, including balconies and windows, is great for a large group. Added bonus: the owner to be very attentive and personable.

Review Submitted: September 28, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We stayed at WindSwept from Sept. 20-27 and had a wonderful time. The house is wonderful and has all the amenities you could want. Plus Kay has a pamphlet telling you of area things to do, where area stores are located, and what to do with jellyfish or sting-ray problems (a sting-ray got my husband so this was VERY helpful). We vacation every year with my parents, brother, sister, grandmother, cousins, and dogs. We are spread out across the eastern US and like to get together once a year for a week long vacation. The WindSwept house was so nice, the large open living room and dining room allowed us to play games until late in the evening and really enjoy each others company. Also, its located so close the the beach and pool, it was nice my husband didn't have to go far to visit the beach after his unfortunate sting. Kay, thanks for a great vacation. :-)
