Very comfortable place with all the cooking essentials in the kitchen. Easy access to the beach and great fishing off the pier. Plenty of of room to park our vehicles under the house when it rains. Definitely coming back
The house was perfect. Very spacious. The kitchen was abundantly stocked more so than some other houses I’ve rented. The beds were extremely comfortable. The location was awesome. We rented this house for our annual family trip. Couldn’t have asked forplace. Thank you to the owners for everything.

We booked a stay at this property for my birthday. Home was very spacious and clean. There were plenty of towels. Kitchen had dishes/silverware/pots/pans that made eating in easy and convenient. Be sure to bring spices if you’re going to be cooking. The highlight for our group was the private lighted fishing dock, cleaning station and all of the seating available outdoors. Our family really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book again in the future!
