Cute tiny home! We've been wanting to stay at the Retreat at Water's Edge for a while, and finally found time to go- it did not disappoint! The community is nice with walking trails, docks, and firepits. The home had GREAT water pressure and ample hot water, which was a huge plus. The space is well-appointed and has all the things you need while traveling. Being able to bring our furry friends is a huge plus for us. Host was easy to work with, and very responsive. We will stay again!
