Summary: We’ve stayed in several different homes on BHI and enjoyed this for our family of 5. Pros: The house was just steps from the beach - great location! Very clean, with beautiful bathrooms. Lots of light. We enjoyed playing board games (Monopoly and Scrabble). Convenient laundry, plenty of towels, shutters that kept the bedrooms nice and dark for sleeping in. No roaches or other bugs (which is unusual in our experience on BHI!). Loved the fenced yard for our dog. Cons: some carpentry issues with the recent renovation. The door handles are finicky and placed too close to the shutters, so we kept jamming our fingers every time we had to lock the door. It sounds like a minor thing to complain about, but it was pretty frustrating, and a few times, painful. We didn’t plan to cook much, but this kitchen wasn’t as well stocked as other spots we’ve stayed. The garage isn’t deep enough for the 6-seater golf cart, requiring us to wrestle with bungee cords to pull up the rear every time we wanted to open and close the doors. There were lots of bikes in multiple sizes, but I don’t think they get used often - very flat tires and some rusty parts to inflate them, and no helmets. Beach equipment was spotty. Not much in the way of toys for kids. A couple of broken boogie boards. No umbrellas or shade of any kind, so make sure you bring your own. (Several beach chairs in good condition, though!) As you can see, the cons are all minor quibbles. Overall, we had a really wonderful stay!
