This was the cleanest place we’ve stayed in. Pet friendly, big enough for adults and pets to play. The place is very nice and the kitchen is big enough to cook for a family. We really enjoyed it here and the dock was great to dock our boat next to it as well so we didn’t have to keep going back and forth to the marina. I also caught a trophy sized bass off the dock!

Great location and view. Need a proper coffee maker. We didnt have kcups and just wanted a regular coffee maker. Maybe a few more large bowls. Great living room and bedrooms. Spiral staircase was a bit difficult for up abd down. Overall a great experience and i would rent this house again.
