Waterfront 6BR Luxury Retreat w/ Pool & Dock

"The furnishings/decor are beautiful. This is one of the nicest houses we have had the pleasure to rent, everything is spotless/brand new. It was hard getting our kids ages 8 and 10 to leave the house each day for adventures. " -Kristie Krueger

The house and property were described very well in the listing. The house is large and spacious with a great entertaining area outside. We did not rent a boat or use the canal at all. Property is located minutes from the gas station, grocery store and restaurants/Bars. Nearest beach was a short 10 minute drive, you do have to pay for parking at the beach just a heads up. We had 10 adults on the trip, property was liked by everyone and enough space for everyone to be together or have your own little area.
