A wonderful place for our annual family bay-cation. The house was everything we had expected. The number of steps, however, was a challenge.

Enjoyable

We had a great time. My husband and son fished on the pier in the morning and night. We were able to relax and enjoy time together as a family. The property manager was very helpful and quick to answer any questions. We had an issue with lights on the pier and the next morning he had an electrician out there to fix it. We definitely enjoyed our stay!!!

Peace by the Bay

We are repeat guests. The hosts are excellent and their home is comfortable, quiet, well-equipped, and in a beautiful location. Easy access to groceries, restaurants, cafes, shops, and bookstores. The full pier is great for boat access and for watching the sunset.

Grandkids

We booked this property so our grandchildren could experience all the bay has to offer. Their ages 6-12. They fished and crabbed until they feel asleep exhausted. They had a blast. The big second floor was perfect for them. They would love to return.

Best Beach Vacation

The property and owners were great!! This was our first time staying on the Bay instead of the Beach. It was perfect! The home was perfect for our large family. The number of bathrooms was helpful. The full washer/dryer was a plus!! The unobstructed view from the pier into the bay was peaceful. We had a small problem with the A/C that the owners promptly took care of. We will definitely be back!!!!
