Awesome stay!

We really enjoyed our time at Anchors Away! The property was beautiful, clean, and perfect for our two families. We loved being steps away from the beach and enjoyed feeding the fish and turtles. Would definitely stay here again!

Family beach trip

We have stayed in Shipwatch several times. It is our favorite private beach. We had 6 adults and four kids. It did work out for us. Not room for anyone else. Nice beach chairs and toys. Response from management was great

This location cannot be beat!

The check-in process was very smooth, we didn't have any issues while staying here, and the location was phenomenal: we were able to walk to the grocery store across the street and walk to a restaurant down the street. The neighborhood is also welcoming and the private beach is a nice calm spot.

Perfect location for family vacation!

My family spent a week in this beautiful home and had a great time! We enjoyed the local restaurants and also cooked/grilled in the kitchen. The house was clean and comfortable and was just a 2 minute walk from the private beach. The Property Manager was great at communicating and very friendly! I would highly recommend this home for your family vacation. It truly was everything we’d hoped for in a vacation home!

Fun family trip!

Great property for extended family gathering! The multiple master bedroom suites were so nice for larger groups. Loved the turtles and fish off the deck and close proximity to the beach for easy and private access. We did have a maintenance issues but they were quick to resolve and address. Washer and dryer were great to have on site. Loved the area and will return for sure!

Perfect Beach House

Our family really enjoyed our stay at this beach house. The house had plenty of space and great amenities. The proximity to the beach was amazing. The walk to the beach is only 2 minutes. The children loved seeing all of the turtles that are in the pond behind the house. I would really recommend this property to anyone looking for a perfect beach house location. Thank you for letting us stay at this great property. We cant wait to come back in the future!

Wonderful beach location and house.

The house and location were wonderful. The home was clean and spacious for our 5 adults and 3 children. The only thing we noticed was that additional silverware, for larger groups would be handy. We had an issue with a wasp nest that was taken care of quickly. The rental property management were great to work with. Highly recommend this house and the Shipwatch area.

Plenty of Space

We had a multi-generational family group stay for a long weekend. Plenty of room for folks to spread out. The weather was chilly and rainy, so we didn't get to use the outdoor facilities, but I could see how great they'd be in the summer.

A piece of heaven

We absolutely loved our stay. So much open, great space to accommodate everyone. All ages loved the patio view of the lake and turtles, making it a very relaxing spot to settle down, play games, etc. We expected a bigger pool but was great for the babies. Since the beach was so close and so nice, we didnt have the need for a bigger pool for the adults. Shopping for fun or groceries were literally walking distance, yet no crazy traffic. Such a great location!! We had a few issues with the a/c but they were quick to take care of it, very considerate. Thank you for such a great get away!

Perfect location.

This house was great! 5 min distance from the beach. The only issue we had was the washer was not working. Property management did offer cleaners services if needed. They also provided enough towels for our days we stayed. Other than, that house is perfect.

Multiple Family Beach Vacation

The property was as advertised. It was more than well equipped with everything needed for a beach vacation with a private feel to it all. Of importance, the company representing the property actually allowed us to gain access to the gated entrance so we could park our vehicles (in the overflow lot) before the house was ready. This greatly impacted our first day, as it allowed our family to go to the beach hours before he house was ready.

Annual family vacation

We always have a great time on our family vacation. We liked the location of this house. It had a few technical malfunctions at first but the management was quick to provide repairs. Two misconceptions on the online advertisement. It sleeps 10 not 12. The "private" access to the beach is no different than the hotels down the beach with lines of umbrellas and chairs at the edge of the water. In fact when we put our chairs in front of empty chairs we were asked to move when the umbrella renters arrived. Otherwise, the management team was A+ and we enjoyed our stay.
