Great house and a great time. Usually most homes dont have a quarter of the kitchen amenities that this home came with which was amazing. We had a great time relaxing in the home and enjoyed sitting on the dock. Home also came with everything you need to enjoy a beach stay; chairs, kayaks, bikes, you name it !!!

Great outdoor & indoor spot!

What a great space! Even though it rained the first day and a half of our stay, we had comfy couches to read books on, a big TV for movies, and the screened porch for a dry spot outside. Cooked several full meals in the fully stocked kitchen. Lovely outdoor space and dock to launch kayaks the next day, had a glorious lunch at the outside table. A fantastic spot to vacation. Would definitely stay again.
