Amazing family vacation spot!

We had an amazing 6day,5 night stay at the Bay House. What an amazing size for my family of 5 and our friends family of 3. The two bathrooms a huge plus. Kitchen had everything we needed and more. After kids went to bed the porch overlooking the sound was the perfect spot for the adults to hang and play games the rest of the night.

Definitely recommended

Loved the location, and the updated kitchen is a dream. We cooked a lot and we had access to everything we needed. Everything was well kept and clean, and the common areas were extra great for hanging out and relaxing. Neighborhood was quiet and felt very safe. Place is easy to find and has great views over the water. Communication with owners was easy and quick. We'd stay here again for sure.

Perfection

Perfect little getaway for me, my husband, daddy and our fur babies. The Bay House is absolutely one charming little home. The home was immaculate, fully stocked with supplies and the view was incredible. Fishing was good, caught a good variety from the pier. Coffee early in the am, on the screened porch and watching dolphins swimming was no doubt the best! Definitely will be going back, soon.
