My wife and I had a phenomenal stay here. Steven the host was very transparent and made things super easy. The house was clean and the beds and pillows were the first comfy ones we'd slept on during our roadtrip, which was much appreciated. The rear deck facing the canal was beautiful to sit at and just relax. And right down the road we saw the single most amazing sun rise we'd ever seen. This is an absolutely great place to stay if youre looking to get away and relax for a few days on the Gulf!
2 min drive to the beach to see the most amazing sunrise.
