Nice place. Nice cove to store the boat. Not to bad of a walk at the end of the night. Which there were towels and things like that
10 / 10Outstanding·Aug 2025
Our family getaway was amazing! This property was perfect for our family of 11 - 8 adults/ 3 children. The slip access was great to keep our boat close. Nice to swim/ fish off the dock. The layout of the house was convenient for the kids to have their area. Kitchen had everything you need. House very clean - kids enjoyed the board games. Just note that towels are not provided. Was not a problem for us as we brought several beach towels. We were able to wash them in the washer and dryer included with the house. We will definitely consider staying here again! Thank you!

The home was perfect for our family. We had 3 families and each family had their own floor. Everyone had their own area. The check in was easy. The host was very easy to work with and responded quickly to our questions.We would definately stay here again.

We had 9 kiddos, ages 3-12 & 6 adults! House was great and we were able to get a second slip for our two boats, which we greatly appreciated! Would definitely stay here again! Check in & out was simple and owner was very responsive!
