We had a great stay! The listing is accurate, though the photos make the bunkie look a bit bigger than it is. The description provides the actual dimensions, so keep that in mind when booking. You probably won’t want to spend much time inside, but it’s a great spot if you’re planning to spend most of your time out on the water.The place was clean, in a great location, and the host was incredibly kind and accommodating. He let us use the dock and even his tube for the day, which made the stay even better.Also, the host is not kidding about the steep hill! Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely recommend it for anyone looking for a simple place to stay while enjoying the water.
