It was comfortable, it was clean, had all the items we needed, plenty of space for all of us, and a beautiful view of the water from the house and porch.We all agreed we would come back and stay, it was a great place!

The flow was nice for our size of group. However, we had to wash several kitchen items before we could use them. We loved the front porch, facing the water

Family trip

The owner Paul was very easy to talk with. He answered all of our questions before we booked. He allowed us to check in early since we had 3 parties coming in from different states. The place was very clean and very well equipped even though we did not cook there. There was plenty of beds and bathrooms for our party of 6.

Great Space

Lots of room for all, quiet location. Enjoyed our stay here. Ants in the kitchen so could not have anything on the counters. That might be an Alabama thing? I was allergic to something in the family room. I could not be in that room more than 15 minutes. Maybe someone brought a cat? Even with a those few negatives we still recommend. Very nice home, well kept.
