Pros:- lovely view with wildlife right on display. We saw herons swooping and fish jumping right from our seat on the couch. - wonderful kayaking & fishing- plenty of linens, paper supplies, and toiletries- affordably pricedCons:- home is very outdated and several things needed repair including a doorknob that kept falling off, blinds that are old, dusty, and difficult to open/close, sliding glass door difficult to open/close)- a/c struggled to keep up with hot days although the window unit helped. Overall would stay again because my active children loved the outdoor space.

We had the best time staying here. We stayed for the Christmas holiday and didn’t miss home one bit! We could’ve kayaked for hours and it was close to everything in town. Joel was easy to connect with and promptly answered any questions we had. We couldn’t recommend this property enough. It was very dog friendly, and my disabled brother was also able to get around with ease. Thank you so much for a great holiday!!!!

6 / 10Average·Aug 2024
I recently stayed at this property and had a mixed experience. The view was absolutely stunning, offering a fantastic opportunity to watch the tides and observe local wildlife like spoonbills, egrets, ibises, and even gators. The kayaks were easy to launch, and I enjoyed using the charcoal grill every night. If you’re looking for a peaceful nature getaway, this location is wonderful.
However, the property’s condition was disappointing. The interior feels dated and somewhat cheap, with broken and bent blinds and kitchen items that felt like they came from a college dorm. The sliding glass door, which an earlier review mentioned, was indeed hard to open and wouldn’t close properly.
The deck is large but lacked outdoor furniture, which made it less enjoyable to use.
To improve your stay, I’d recommend bringing camping gear like fold-up chairs and a table for the deck and shaded areas by the water. Binoculars can enhance your wildlife viewing, and packing your own towels and large cooking pots would be beneficial.
While the property’s condition might be due to cost constraints, the location and view are exceptional. Just be prepared for the dated aspects of the house.
