2026 Season Updates
Entire home was painted. Couches, chairs in family room were steam cleaned. New carpet on entire first floor. Purchased all new sheets and towels (5 star hotel quality). All duct work inspected and vacuumed using a powerful HEPA-filtered vacuum and a compressed air system which flushed all traces of dirt and dust out of the ductwork and into a specialized vacuum system.

James Farm Ecological Preserve is a very, very short 1.4 mile walk/drive and right down the street from our home. It has a free, public beach that is pet friendly 365 days/year! Since it is on the bayside, it is very calm and the water is very shallow. Perfect for little ones.

Whites Creek is an absolute fantastic river and just out our "back-door". Kayak launch is only a short walk from our home. Kayaks are available from outside 3rd party and rates range from $125/week to $175. Please let me know if you are interested.

The community has a fantastic clubhouse with both indoor pool, outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna. The outdoor pool is usually open between Memorial day and Labor day but may be closed a week or so earlier/later. Although it is very, very rare, on occasion either of the pools may have to be closed for repairs and there is no guarantee they will be open during your stay. There is also a game room with a pool table, ping-pong, foosball, arcade game, etc…. There is also a tv room and a large kitchen.

The clubhouse requires that all guests pay a fee to use the facilities. The fees are listed below:


Clubhouse & Pool Access Fee
Access to the community clubhouse and pool is available for an additional $200 flat fee per stay, as required by the community association. This fee applies per rental, regardless of the number of guests or length of stay, and is set by the association (not the homeowner).

Please note that you must go to the clubhouse and meet with clubhouse staff and make arrangements during normal business hours. Clubhouse closes at 5:00 but I recommend getting there earlier.

There is a $50 fee if the key fob is not returned.


Private Garage Parking for 2 Cars and Multiple Spots for additional cars if needed. EV Charger just installed inside garage.

My goal is for our guests to fall in love with our home and come back year-after-year. We take guest satisfaction very seriously and will do whatever it takes to make that happen. Every year I survey all of my past guests for feedback on what we could have done to make the home better and implement those suggestions. Thank you for taking the time to view our home and I welcome any questions that you have. I'm looking forward to having you stay at our home.

The host communicated well with all questions--very friendly and accommodating with early check-in and late check-out. She responded quickly. Her place was comfortable for our family size.

The townhouse was fantastic with plenty of room for the family. The only feedback I would offer is that the kitchen is a little cramped with the table but it still works. The pack n play for our grandson was an unexpected plus and there was plenty of room for everyone. The host was fantastic about communicating with us.

This was a great place to stay. Its pet friendly and you feel at home. Its close to the beach, shopping and restaurants. The garage is big enough for 2 regular size vehicles. The home owner was super friendly and answered all my questions. We will definitely stay again, hopefully next year. Thank you for a great relaxing and fun vacation.
