My family and friends had a wonderful time. The place was very nice and spacious. The outdoor space was serene and we enjoyed the water, the dock, the fire pit, and cornhole. We shared a lot of good memories and would definitely stay here again in the future.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The home is spacious and there is a large outdoor area. Our son was married at the Ribeault Club on Fort George Island and it was very close to the venue. We had other family members staying with us and there was plenty of room. Communication with Amy was excellent.

This house was amazing and Amy was incredibly responsive. The configuration of the house is unique. The master suite on the second floor was quiet and comfortable. There were 3 bedrooms grouped together that are perfect for young couples who want to socialize. There was also a MIL suite on the first floor with a private bath. For those who like to cook, the appliances are high end and the pots/pans/dishes/silverware are excellent quality. The beds were comfortable with nice sheets. Loved the outdoor space. We enjoyed the dock every morning and evening; frequent dolphin sitings! We also used the fire pit and grill. Overall this home was an excellent value and was enjoyed by everyone in our family party. We'll definitely be renting this one again!

Large family vacation

We were a big family group of 11 with 2 kids and the house was perfect for us, lots of games for kids of all ages, plenty of sitting room in different areas to have some privacy. The best of all was the fantastic dock on the river with sundowns, boats, dolphins. Not for swimming. There were some issues with shower drains, perhaps due to the fact that Hurrican Milton had just passed through. Lots of nice welcome amenities, plenty of coffee and teas, salt and pepper etc. Host Amy did everything to make sure we had everything we needed. The sleepers in the main bedroom on the second floor said the road out front was surprisingly loud at night. All in all a fantastic place to stay!
