Best getaway!
Our family of five had the best stay at Water’s Edge! Our host was so helpful and responsive. The property was clean and beautifully decorated. They had anything you could need while traveling, from shampoo to first aid kit, everything was thought of by the owners. We will definitely be booking again!

Beautiful home
We had a great 4th of July vacation at Water’s Edge. Not on the main water but has a nice view and has less boat traffic than other nearby areas. The outside area and fire pit would be great for a stay after the summer season when weather is cooler.
