Perfect getaway house

Truly a perfect house for my bachelorette party. The property was clean, beds were comfortable and it looked exactly like the listing. The neighborhood could not be more perfect. We weren’t at the house much but when we were it was very enjoyable and talking with management was quick and efficient. Only suggestions would be to add a few extra blankets for sleeping and spices for use in the kitchen. Overall would highly recommend to anyone considering this property!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Really love working with 30A Luxury Vacations once again. They go above and beyond. They are very responsive to any issues and stay in touch with you through the process via text, which is very convenient. We had a couple of things that needed attention and they took care of them all in no time. Checkin and Check out is a breeze and the house was ready to go early this time too. Wonderful company to work with.

harper cottage almost right

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second year staying at Harper Cottage, this year we stayed longer. Overall the house fits our family really well, I would suggest they have the house better equipped...if we were to stay a week again I think we may look at other options. We have stayed at several rentals on family vacations and this one is one that has the fewest what I would call basics. I would suggest more paper towels, at the very least a spray cleaner for the counters...there are zero cleaning products...beach toys and towels, loungers by pool, matches or a lighter for birthday candles, more glasses and serving dishes. The flickering lights without enough window coverings kept two people in our group awake and when traveling with small children you need window treatments that keep the rooms darker early in the morning. We did more cooking this year and we were constantly doing dishes just to keep up. It's a small thing but the hair dryer in my room is falling apart and got really hot....I mean at least put decent hair dryers in the rooms. We wanted to keep up with keeping everything really clean but I don't think as guests we should have to buy cleaning supplies...have never needed to do so anywhere and as I mentioned we have stayed at many rentals over the last several years. Most places have a personal note, nice bottle of wine and some other local treats...not a big deal to me but a nice touch. The bikes had issues with the tires and the wagon is falling apart too. I guess as I write this as much as we love the space and location we will look at other options next visit. I don't think it would take that much to have this be a place a family like ours would come back to every year!

Harper Cottage Stay 2025

The property was gorgeous and very well taken care of. If the house didn’t have a basic amenity the management company had it delivered to the house within an hour or so. Very convenient being right next to a larger pool and about 2 block from the heart of Rosemary. Will definitely be back.

The stay was amazing, perfect location and room for everyone in my wedding party. We got married at the pearl and this VBRO made the whole time perfect.

Wonderful Stay

This place was absolutely perfect for our family. We had an issue figuring out how to get in and then we didn’t quite understand the pool alarm, but they were extremely responsive and we figured out the pool alarm quickly. With a toddler, we were grateful for it. We loved the proximity to everything. We also had a great community pool right next to us as well. Overall, I would highly recommend!
