Great Vacation with the Whole Crew
This house had so much room for our entire family of 13. We really enjoyed the outdoor porch and pool areas. We brought our own pontoon boat and was able to jump right in anytime we wanted to ride out to the bay, grab a bite or a drink at many of the places you can pull into with a boat - Tacky Jacks, Flora Bama and may others, which was day and night! You don't see any sunsets or sunrises at this house, but the vibe is great anyway!
