Highly recommended!! The cleanest rental I have ever been. Everything you may need they have it from the kitchen to the rooms. We love the outdoor accommodations, it was perfect to enjoy with the family. Extra point if you are taking your boat the sandbar is like 10 minutes from the house.

This place was fantastic! Everything was in great condition, clean and comfortable! Check in was nice and easy! We were traveling from Louisiana with my Bay Boat in tow and it was a breeze docking at the private dock and they even let me keep my trailer on side the house. The pool was the perfect way to unwind after long days out in the saltwater. The kitchen was the perfect place for us to cook our fresh catch daily and all the amenities in the house were top-notch! I can’t say enough good things about the experience and we can’t wait to go back!
