Views are beautiful!

Annual trip with Mom, sister’s & granddaughters! Ocean front was too expensive but this ICW home was great. The views are beautiful and watching the boats come by was very nice. Comfy home with great deck & seating as well as screened porch when the sun is too much! Drive to beach was close enough! Would definitely stay again! If you’ve got a boat or kayak, this place is perfect!
