This could not have been a better home for our needs this weekend! We were attending a wedding right down the street and this home was a perfect escape a 3 minute walk away. Home was perfectly clean, comfortable and functional- the Master Bath made it feel like home! Property was perfectly manicured down to the water and the old oaks provided a perfect sight and refuge from a 95 degree weekend!Finally team was so communicative- even at booking 6mo out!Would LOVE to come back!
