Baytripper is a beautiful home in a very well maintained and quiet neighborhood. The house is in a great location on the North end between the beach and the bay. The house is very well appointed and was spotless on our arrival. The beds were super comfortable. We enjoyed the infinity pool overlooking the bay. We plan to return as soon as we can!
We loved our stay. The house is a great set up for the 2 couples and a single that stayed. Even had room for a couple of sort term guests.
We rent a lot from VRBO, and I have never seen a better stocked kitchen in any of our previous rentals. Lots of good quality pots and pans, dishes, glasses and every kitchen tool you need.
The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms great, nice living room setup and the location is excellent.
We’ve already booked it for next year.
We fully enjoyed our stay at BayTripper! The house was clean and well maintained. The kitchen was very well equipped. It was the perfect size for two adults and four teenagers. The king mattress on the upper level was a bit hard for my liking but my husband liked it. The teenagers each reported comfortable mattresses in the rest of the house. We loved having the bayside amenities and the kayak and fully enjoyed the outdoor deck space.

Reviewer Comments:
Our family has been traveling to CSB for several years now and this was our first trip staying on the bay side. We absolutely loved everything about our 2 week stay at Bay Tripper. The house was beautiful and extremely clean. We were able to enjoy the amazing view, short walk to the bay and beach and the had fun at the pickleball court. The house has everything anyone could need or want. Great location, nicely stocked kitchen (appliances, pots/pans, spices) and other household items (shampoo/conditioner, bath soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, dish soap), plenty of seating inside and on the porch, board games and outdoor games and beach gear in the garage. We rented a golf cart to get my mother in law to and from the beach easily and we all had a lot of fun driving it to the beach. Donna was amazing to work with. She was easily reachable, answering all questions, which made everything easy when arriving. And although we had no issues, I felt I was in good hands if there were any.

This is our second stay at this house. It is just an awesome house. The owners have thought of everything that is needed to make it feel like home. We all love the kitchen because it is fully stocked with everything that you need and all very nice. They did not shop at Homegoods to furnish their house. It was done right.

Another year at Baytripper and couldn’t be happier! Love how we were greeted with a card and flowers on the kitchen counter. It’s the little extra things! Working with Donna was a breeze and she was always quick to reply to emails and calls. Top notch rental company and top notch rental home. See ya next year!

Perfect home for a family reunion, plenty of room to spread out and everyone have their own space. The ice maker and beverage cooler was perfect! Having access to both the bay and the ocean made for perfect sunrises AND sunset views!
The house kitchen is exceptionally well stocked. Lots of seating great bathrooms. The club house hot tube takes hours to heat up but that is out of the homeowner’s control. Donna, at Be our Guest was very helpful and kind in assisting me with the updated code for club house. Great house.
Property is lovely, very well appointed and was perfect for our group. We really enjoyed our stay and will certainly be back.

Second stay at this house. Great house with large kitchen that is stocked with everything you need. Love the bayside location at Ovation with the infinity edge pool over looking the bay and mooring for our boat in the bay.
Loved this house. Bay location was amazingly. Definitely need a golf cart or bikes or both. Well supplied clean house with a surprisingly large supply of beach equipment.
Great property but the mosquitos were terrible in the bay side neighborhood. We were able to kayake in the bay and with only a short walk, play in the surf in the gulf and dolphin watch.
We have stayed in Ovation many years- Bay Tripper was a new house for us that didn’t disappoint. Well equipped house and furnishings- being OCD I love that everything was labeled for easy use! Property was beautiful- loved all the wildlife in the Bay.
Great home, great location, exactly as described. The home is well stocked with everything you could possibly need. The views and ocean breeze were amazing. The best part however, were our hosts Donna and Brian, they were tremendously helpful and responsive, each every recommendation they made for our family turned out to be prefect. Trust them, they know what they are doing and they know the area!
