Perfect location, comfortable stay
We had such a nice stay here. The location is quiet on the bay for the kids to run around and play. Pool was perfect and games like large connect 4, corn hole, and ping pong table kept them busy too. The house had all the amenities to be completely comfortable and feel like home. The owners were attentive and answered any questions I had before our stay and even when the pool felt a little chilly I reached out to them and they sent someone immediately to take care of it. We would definitely stay here again if we have the chance!
