This property is a fisherman’s dream. With access to the dock on the bay, boat dock and kayaks- there’s plenty to do to keep all entertained. The property was clean and well maintained with little extras available in the event you forgot to pack something. The pictures don’t come close to the actual beauty of this gem. Both the owner and host were easy to contact and responsive with check in and check out being a breeze. So happy we chose this property and it will be on our list as the only property to stay in when we visit each year. Thanks for the amazing memories!

Great Time in a Unique Property

The house was well described and perfect for our scalloping trip. Plenty of space and the kids loved roaming the property, especially the seawall, where they spotted stingrays, crabs and fish. The floating dock was perfect for our 21' center console, although the canal is really shallow at low tide.
