Our home away from home! We’ve been going to Big Red for over 10 years…by far the cleanest house with guests comforts in mind! House now has 2 Mr Coffee makers and 1 large tank Keurig. A plethora of dishes and silverware and cook tools. Former guests have left toddler cups, toys for others to use. They’ve added an internet booster in the master bedroom which helps immensely—but internet access on the top outside deck is terrible so if you were planning to do online work during your vacay, you’ll need to be in the house. Highly recommend this home!

Big Red is our home away from home…well appointed, plenty of space, comfy beds and plenty of seating. Kitchen has everything you need to manage meals for small or large group. Especially love 2 coffee pots and the added Keurig!! All were used! Whether a swim in the pool under the lights, a dip in the hot tub, or a stroll on the beach, Big Red has it all. The elevator is a bonus for us older folks!

We were very pleased with our recent stay at a Joe Lamb house in mid-March, 2023. We chose the house from online info and photos and we were not disappointed. The house was everything we had hoped for and made for a lovely gathering for our family visiting from Colorado for Spring Break. We were very pleased with every encounter we had with everyone at the Joe Lamb office. They were uniformly helpful and did their utmost to make our stay memorable. Thank you, and we will be back with you. You have lovely properties and you manage them well!
