Evelyn's Oasis

Spring Break
Spring break trip with the family. Great place and tons of room. Everything was really clean, great views of the ocean, close to the light house and North beach grill. Walked to the marine science center, the playground and dog park. Property as a whole is well worn, but we're low maintenance and enjoyed it. Fort Screven remnants all over this area was pretty cool too. If anything to suggest, and it's a minor thing, have some batteries for backup. There are TV's in every bedroom and in the common rooms and multiple remotes. It was a hassle to switch out batteries for dead remotes and keep them in the right room. Oceanfront manager was responsive too, needed a little help with the pool and hot tubs and they came right out.

Loved this beach oasis
Wow! Easy check in, easy check out. This beach house was amazing. Easy access through dunes to beach. The pool was fantastic. Plenty of pots and pans and utensils. Had to run home for my keurig and toaster but they had everything else. Hot tub was excellent. We had plenty of seating for meals and with 2 kitchens this is ideal for 2-3 families. Neighborhood is quiet. We rented golf carts to cruise to other side of island for dinner out a few nights. You have to try Wet Willy for alcoholic slushies. They’re great. Stingray’s was a nice place for a night out with family and good seafood. I’m this house had so much room. 6 bedrooms with very comfortable beds and clean sheets and blankets. 3 bedrooms with private baths were fantastic for those of us over 60. There are 2 other I full baths that worked well for everyone. The views upstairs are amazing. Lighthouse is visible and fun to watch when people walk to the top. We did not want to leave. We plan on booking this home again.

Honest Reviewer
Just because I wished I would have seen this type of review before booking, I would like to give pro's and con's of Evelyn's Oasis. Pro's 1) House is VERY roomy, tons of space for a large family 2) extremely comfortable beds in every room 3) Huge Tv's throughout house in every bedroom and living areas, with cable and WIFI 4) air conditioning cools house very well 5) Two very well equipped kitchens one on each level 6) living rooms on two levels, both huge comfy couches 7) dining room area with two very large tables to seat a large family 8) Extremely clean( house in general as well as linens on beds and bathrooms) 9) Oceanfront Cottage has staff that is VERY easy to work with and helpful. Also, they were prompt and helpful with some issues we had while staying. Cons... 1) pool was VERY nasty upon check-in. Sand in bottom(due to hole in liner we were told by maintenance). Bird poop and feathers throughout. We call, first day and maintenance came to "clean" pool. All they did was skimmed and left skimmer there and told us to clean it when we needed to(not our place to do so)... Day 4 after the pool was so nasty, I called to complain and they sent maintenance back out and they cleaned bottom of pool and skimmed, it was clean however they took the hot tub cover off hot tub, to cover a part of the pool that the birds were using. This left the hot tub open, and we could no longer enjoy hot tub because water was cold. The birds still continued to use the pool for their personal use. 2) upon arrival we visited the landing attached to house that is built on bunker. The railing is VERY unsafe...and broken off on edging. VERY easy to fall off of and land on rock part of bunker below. We had our grand baby with us and this was very scary. We called 1st day about this issue and it was NEVER addressed the entire stay. This was then another part of our rental we could NOT enjoy due to safety. 3) the distance from the house to the beach is NOT a few steps as advertised. Its a good walk through the dunes and uphill in sand. We originally had our 85 year old parents going on trip with us. Due to the Covid scare, they decided not to go at last minute. Thankfully they didn't...they would have NEVER been able to make the trip to the beach from the house. 4) pool fencing needs updated, parts are being held together by a Tie down. Concrete pieces were missing...railing had missing screws... just absolutely unexceptionable. 5) Check out was 10 am. We started loading cars at 9 am and the cleaning crew shows up and tries to come in while we are still packing and loading. We tried to say check out was 10 to them and they said we speak no English. My SIL typed on his phone that check was at 10, and translated to Spanish and they left. We felt like this was very uncalled for and we for sure, due to Covid, did NOT want them there while we were trying our best to get our large family packed up and gone by 10. In a whole we had a VERY great vacation. These issues above, had we known, we would have booked a different location but still with Oceanfront Cottage. We feel for the money we spent on this location it was NOT worth what we ended up with. We will sadly NOT be returning to Evelyn's Oasis.

Great House!
Rented this house with my family of 16. PLENTY of room. Well kept. Close to the ocean! The pool area has plenty of space for yard games. Loved it!
