The dining room has a large table with seating for 8. Great to play cards and board games on as well. :)

Board games, coloring books and cards are in the bottom cabinet that is located to the left of the fireplace (please return these items).

The walk down the pier brings you to the covered decking that has a swing, table and chairs. Please do not leave any items on the pier including personal items, trash, etc. There is a ladder that folds down into the water. The water levels are typically shallow around the dock, so jumping/diving into the water is NOT ADVISED.

The house was excellent. The area was amazing. April was very helpful with instructions on how to check in and provide some of the rules of the house. April was also very helpful with recommendations of restaurants and things in the area. I would recommend this house to anyone that is looking to spend time at a place that is on the waterfront.

Wonderful stay
This house is exceptional…..beautifully decorated. All the beds in the four bedrooms are comfortable and we all slept well. The kitchen is a chefs kitchen and has everything you could need. The back porch was spotless with a nice swing, table and chairs and couch. The patio has a fireplace which would have been great to use if cooler weather. The one question we had the whole weekend was responded to by text immediately. I feel good about giving this home a five star rating.

Fabulous Stay!
The house was beautiful and the perfect size for our group of 12. Communication with the owner was easy and they were always available for questions. We were able to rent a pontoon that picked us up at the dock. The house had a lot of indoor and outdoor games, bluetooth speakers, and plenty of lounging space. We all loved it!

Top Quality place
This was a wonderful place to just chill out for us older crowd but there was plenty to do for kids, too! It seems they had thought of everything you’d need. So many amenities. TV in every room as well as screened porch. Ceiling fans on screened in porch and also fans on the dock. It seemed there was always a breeze. Both coffee maker and Keurig, toaster, blender, rice cooker. Top grade kitchen- but you do have to bring your own bagged ice - no ice maker in fridge. Beds were soooo comfy! There was a lot of comfortable seating for everybody. The owners were very responsive to our questions and/or needs. Easy to communicate with. We will be back. Highly recommend!!
