The houses were so cute! We had a great time and the views were beautiful!! Everything was clean, the air conditioning in both houses kept you good an cold, I was so glad I was able to take my dog with me! My husband had a good time fishing, he caught a lot of catfish, some croakers and some others I’m not sure what they were lol. Shonna is very nice and answered my questions very fast, I’d rent from her again. Thank you for a wonderful time!

What a cute place. We had a great vacation with our adult kids and one of our dogs. Will definitely consider again. Thanks for hosting us. A/C was good could be better in the guest house, but works okay. Porch could be a little more inviting but also works. All in all very relaxing. Thanks again. Very clean.

My pet Maggie does great! This is our 2nd time to visit your home. We love the pier. Everything was good. Host was especially helpful and answered our text promptly. My ONLY suggestion might be for some rails on the pier and to cut some brush when pulling out of the driveway. Love, Love the bathtub, but is hard to get out of if you had a disability, I don't and did fine, but might want to put a hand bar somewhere. I figure3 that is why somone grabbed the faucet and had partially pulled it our of the wall, which we sent you a pic of so you'd know it wasnt' us. All in all we loved it!
