Reviewer Comments:
If you want posh, go to the Ritz. If you want a true authentic lowcountry experience, this is the place. The dock is topnotch, the home has all the space you need, the wrap-around porch is irresistible, kitchen is stocked and the 5ft long yeti kept the beer cold all week! Can't think of one complaint except we had to go home.

Wonderful place to spend time with family on the water with just the right remote feel, yet convenient to take the boat on waterway day excursions and to the mainland for any needs. Will return!
