Year 7 was wonderful! We love the house and amenities! A little sad we will have neighbors next door next year, but that was to be expected eventually. We cannot wait until year 8! (Still subtly hinting for an ice machine ;) )
Manager's Response
LOL... I will forward this subtle hint to the owners!! lol
But just in case, I hope you can live without one!! ;-) The ice machine at the fire hall is about 2 miles south!!
Another great vacation despite some flaws

This was our 7th year going to this house. We enjoyed ourselves as usual but had some issues during our stay. The AC had issues most of the week but Laura was quick to bring us window units so we could sleep comfortably. The house was very clean when we arrived except for the gazebo on the dune. There was piles of sand everywhere and the chairs were also dirty and covered in sand. We hosed out the entire thing so we could enjoy it all week. The house could definitely use some TLC. The decks on all floors and around the pool need updating as does the master bath. Toilet wouldn’t flush right and the shower drain was massively clogged, not to mention the shower itself could be replaced. The stepping stones from the pool area to the bottom door could definitely be bigger and more sturdy, it’s hard to walk on them especially at night. The upstairs AC vents were all leaking water onto the floors and tables but this may have been due to the AC issues we were having. All in all it was still a great vacation but comparing year 1 to year 7 it’s definitely time this house got some TLC. We’d love to return if it was pet friendly but we will look elsewhere now since bringing our dog is easier than finding a dog sitter at home.
Manager's Response
Thanks for your review. I understand your frustration when things aren't exactly like you would have them if the house belonged to you. As you know, homes here are always being updated and maintained as the elements and usage by guests is very hard on them. I think these owners do a good job of keeping things up. If I remember correctly, we had the level three AC repaired the same day you called. And then the level 2 AC unit had an issue at the end of the week, so we brought the portable units until that unit could be repaired. Thankfully there was never a hot night. :-) We do our best to respond to issues that come up, as they will..... they come up everywhere and all we can do is put in our best effort to have them resolved. "All in all, it was still a great vacation" Those are the words we like to hear.

Everything about this rental from the early stages was A+. The rental agent was by far one of the best I have ever dealt with. Very quick to respond to any questions / issues we had. This location could not of been better and was the best stocked kitchen we have ever had in all our years of renting. Only negative and was the condition of the deck around the pool. It definately needs replaced soon but even with that I would rent this property again. Hence the 4 stars on the general condition.

This was my fourth year renting Ten Down. Despite being a rental it always has a homey feel to it. Love the house and the location. Plan on returning next year.
Manager's Response
Ten Down has a true and loyal following. There are MANY repeat guests for that house. You may have put your finger on it with "homey". The kitchen is comfortable for quite a few cooks, with lots of stations and room to work. The living room is cozy but completely assessable from the rest of the open third floor. And the VIEWS!!! I always gasp a little when I go in that house. Thanks so much for sticking with us!

Six years in a row, and still loving this house like year one! Laura was a pleasure to work with, as always. Although this house needs nothing (an ice machine would be amazing, though ), we are excited to read that there will be future updates to the decks. We cannot wait to visit and create more memories next year for year seven!
Manager's Response
Year SEVEN!! Tried and true is always the way to go! I love the view from that house. It strikes me every time I top the stairs!!
HAHA, slipped the ice machine wish in kinda sneakily!! So funny, I will pass it on to the owners.

I wish you would have let us know you were having some issue. That's what we are here for.

We loved TEN DOWN! Great get away from the heat and busy-ness of the summer. I loved the time to disconnect and enjoy family dinners, cards, pool and beachtime. Truly incredible seeing the wild horses in the morning, while drinking my coffee and watching the ocean too. Everything we needed was in the house and provided. It was very clean and easy to just enjoy yourselves!

How many years is it now? Five or six? I think the week has your name on it. Ten Down is a keeper!!

We stayed at Ten Down this year again and it did not disappoint. Love the upgrades; Keurig, arcade game and the new table and chairs in the screened porch. We had a great time, great weather. Some suggestions we had were the master bathroom shower could use an upgrade and bigger stepping stones on the ground floor from the pool. We enjoyed our stay as always.
Manager's Response
We're so happy you stay at Ten Down every year. And SO glad you enjoyed your stay. The arcade game was a surprise!! Plans for next year include deck work on all the levels, and hopefully a NEW level one deck from the house out to the pool. The owners have been trying for three years to get that deck built. Know any contractors that need a job at the beach for a couple of weeks? LOL. I'll put the bug in the ear for the master shower, it is large enough and it is clean, but it's old and tired. I am old and tired as well, I wish someone would retire me!!!! ;-) Hope you guys will come again.

Had another wonderful week at Ten Down! This was our 6th summer trip to Ten Down and we just love this home. This year we were greeted with new carpet, bedding, and better bathrooms towels (ones that you’d have at home instead of hotel like towels). It was a breath of fresh air. The home is also under a new management company and I can’t say enough about them! They drove a full propane tank down to us in a tropical like rain storm just so we could grill our dinner! The house was immaculate when we got there as was the pool and hot tub! It was a great week we love the gazebo by the beach and just the views from the house they are amazing!! We can’t wait to stay here again and are counting the days til next summer!

We had a wonderful week in Carova at the beautiful Ten Down property. The house is in a great location and came well-stocked with anything you could possibly need. The rental agency was fantastic. Great communication, house was clean and the house contained many appreciated updates this year. We will definitely return next year!

Location was awesome! House was great, could not have been happier. We loved the remote location, away from the crowds, seeing the horses every day. On-line description was accurate! Be prepared to eat in, as the drive back to town is long, and the restaurants are crowded. We planed to stay at the house most nights so it was great for us.
nice to get away from the usual routines and relax

Isn't this your 8th or 10th year at Ten Down? We are so glad you love it as much as we do!
See you next year!! :-)
