Everything We Needed

This place was awesome! Everything we could have wanted or needed was there. Loved that there were kayaks to use and that the beach was out the back door. The place is cute and modern and fully stocked. Great location. Would love to go back!

Enjoyable vacation spot

The location was great and very close to food/drinks, golf and anything else you might want or need. Spot on the lake was nice too. You can walk out far into the lake and only have it waste deep. Kayaks and chairs on property were very convenient for enjoying the lake. Nice vacation spot for a couple

Anniversary Stay

A newly renovated cottage, on the east side of the lake. A perfect location for beautiful sunsets. The kitchen is full of gadgets and utensils. It was just a cozy cottage on the lake, or stay was great!

Fabulous location

The weather did not cooperate but the house, beach and location did not disappoint. Right across the street from a boat rental and fruit market. We will be back. Few calls to Harry that were answered promptly. No issues with the house or property. Neighbors were friendly also.

On call stay with the wifey

Awesome property. The owner is very fast to respond to any questions. If you have dogs and they like dogs, make sure to meet Joanie two houses to the left when looking at the water. Her jack russel, Bella, has endless energy. Garrett’s was our go to for breakfast.

Relaxing little home with Everything you need

This little home is the perfect size for a couple. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking items with the exception of lids for the pans. It has an instant pot, crockpot, blender, etc… The bed is SO incredibly comfortable. I loved the private beach and access to 2 kayaks, zero gravity chairs, a fire pit, picnic table and grill. The area is great and surrounded by many wonderful restaurants. The Crab Shack and Bucilli’s were our favorites. Lastly I loved that we were allowed to bring our dogs. The pricing for this unit was more than fair considering all of the amenities. I hope to return next summer.

Great getaway

Very well appointed, clean, small cottage. Had everything we could have wanted for our 3 night getaway. Right on the beach. Decorated beautifully. Newly remodeled. Kitchen area had many small appliances. My son has difficulty walking and everything was on one level for him, even a walk in shower. Grandson rode his bike to public beach that is 4/10 of a mile away. We want to come back.
