Very clean and a beautiful view of the bay. The kitchen was well stocked with just about any appliance you would need and plenty of dishes and silverware. The owner was helpful in every way. We truly enjoyed our stay and hope to return

The Findlay & Elliott families REALLY enjoyed the “big house” as our toddler coined it. We saw dolphins on the bay almost daily! Every inch on the house was used, so it was perfect for all of us getting together from multiple states. The hosts are extremely nice as well! I hope we get to return some day!

We so enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home! You cannot beat the view, and the location! We love playing around in the bay and this was the perfect place for that. We waded, went kayaking, watched dolphins play, and played in the sand. The kitchen was perfect for making our own meals and enjoying a holiday dinner. The only thing we missed were kitchen knives, so remember to pack a couple. Bring your own paper plates and cups etc. if you want them, but the kitchen is well stocked with dishes. We loved the big soaker tub, and large living area, and the ping pong table was a hit for sure. This house goes on our list of favorites and we hope to return one day for another great vacation!*Note all entrances are accessed by long stairways, we found this challenging for our elderly grandma but we managed okay for the few times she had to enter or leave the house.
