We are a family of 4. We booked this vacation house because of the private fishing pier as both of my boys like fishing. We enjoyed very much of our staying and we caught a lot fishes. The highlights are a 35” black drum and a 38” red fish. The host is also very responsive. My wife had some issues with the dishwasher.

Relaxing time, great fishing!!!
The house was perfect for our stay! Was it high class decor and over the top renovation, no. Did it have everything needed to accomodate our stay? Absolutely, the house was clean, the beds were comfortable, there were no bugs, the showers were hot and most importantly the AC blew cold all trip long!!! We will be back to fish, hands down, there is plenty of room on the dock, the upper deck is great for hanging out, plenty of room to park and store your things, yard space for kids to roam and play.

Good fishing house
Good simple house for fishing trips. Only negative is that the weather wasn’t better and the sink on the pier didn’t work. I would book this house again.
