Amazing Bay House!

We were a group of eight adults and this was perfect! The dock, pool, golf cart, kayaks and paddle boards were wonderful to have on site. The kitchen was great to cook in and stocked with all of the utensils and cookware that we needed...gas grill outside was a plus too. We are already trying to figure out when we can come back!
