Very clean and updated. Close to things to do. Pool table was nice.

Very good. Only problem we had was to run out of propane gas for the grill and garbage bags. I’m trying to get a receipt for the gas but the vendor did not email a receipt as the instructions said they would.

Lovely & Clean Waterfront Home

We rented this home for family because it was very close to our own. It was spotless when my son and his family checked in. They honestly didn't 'live' there as they were at our house most all the time but they enjoyed the house and found it very comfortable. The owners/manager were easy to deal with and offered us a very early check in which was very considerate.
