Great house and great views with fishing!

This is our 2nd time staying at this home. We thoroughly enjoy the views and fishing from the boat or the dock. You can put your boat in just down the road and leave it at the protected dock and just jump in and go. Communication with Tiffany when needed is superior. We will be back again.
